Chapter-47
"So, what's the plan?" Victoria asked after she saw Laila running out of the room like her pants were on fire. ??
"We will discuss the plan later. Someone is waiting for you downstairs, whom I think you will be enthralled to meet." Neptune said with a soft smile on his face.
"What are you talking about? Who is waiting for me downstairs? Is it Alpha Sam and Catherine or Milly?" Victoria asked as she checked her reflection in the mirror to see that she looked presentable.
"None of them. Someone of more importance." Neptune said before nodding at Ashton, who smirked at him, and put a blindfold around Victoria's eyes.
They knew that they were going through some tough situations, but it's moments like these that should be cherished and well-loved. Thus, they couldn't miss the opportunity to see a flabbergasted and amazed Victoria when she'll see her parents in real for the first time.
"What are you doing Ashton? I am not a kid." Victoria said and was about to remove the blindfold from around her eyes when Ashton's whisper in her ears stopped her from doing so.
"I know, sweetheart. You are far mature than a kid, and we all can see that, but we want to surprise you. You can do that much for us, right?" He said, making Victoria blush at his mature comment that didn't go unnoticed by both the men who just smiled at her.
Even though she loves Alexander, it doesn't mean she won't feel the attraction towards them. She is bound to fall for both the men because of the bond that her powers feel. She will feel every bit of it as if it's her feelings.
"Let's go now," Neptune said, making Ashton nod, who guided her out of the rooms.
“If I fall from the stairs, I swear, I’ll make you guys pay for it.” Victoria threatened, making both of them chuckle before she was lifted in the air by Ashton, who carried her downstairs, bridal style.
Entering the hallways with her in his arms, Ashton smiled at Alexander, who had a stiff expression on his face.
The emotions he was feeling right now were beyond jealousy. However, understanding the condition Victoria was in, he knew he needs to keep control over his emotions, or he will screw things really bad.
The more he watched their interaction, the stronger his resolution to find the cure was becoming. He was now becoming more adamant than ever to find the solution to this mate thing because he was sure about one thing at least, and that thing is, he won’t be able to share Victoria with anybody.
Honestly, he wasn’t even sure how Daniel Neptune and Ashton were cooperating so well with this mate thing.
“That’s because we have a deal between us. We won’t touch her inappropriately and beyond limitations, until this mate thing is solved,” Daniel whispered in Alexander’s ears, annoying him more when he realized that Daniel has read his thoughts once again.
“Are you ready, Victoria?” Ashton asked, placing her on the ground. And Alexander knew, if her eyes were opened, then she would’ve rolled her eyes at his childishness already.
“If you are done with your childish attitude, then can you remove my blindfold now?” Victoria asked, smiling at his behavior.
“Fine, I am going to remove it now,” Ashton said with a sigh before removing the blindfold from around her eyes.
Adjusting her eyes to the light, she turned around as she noticed she was facing the opposite direction. However, as soon as she turned around, she felt like she was in a dream again. There standing in front of her was none other than her parents, that she remembered from her dream and the photo in Daniel’s house.
Gazing closely at them, she smiled before looking at Alexander for approval or hint that she wasn’t dreaming again.
“Does that mean, the voice that I heard when I was in the dream and struggling witty Madeline-”
“-Was of your mom,” Alexander confirmed, making her smile in delight.
“Mom, Dad,” Victoria said in a small voice, afraid that they will disappear if she says their name loudly.
Seeing their beautiful daughter up close for the first time, Nelson and Martha were no better. Their eyes tearing as Martha whimpered her name softly, “Victoria, my child,”
Walking closer to where her mom and dad were standing, she stood a few meters away from them before stopping completely. “Why are you guys here?” She asked, her eyes tearing but expression becoming harder than before.
“Victoria, what do you mean by -” Martha started but was cut off by Victoria’s next words.
“What I meant was, why are you here now? You were not here when Jenny and Harry died, and I was on the verge of killing myself. You were not here when I was fighting off these things transitions from human to different species alone. You were not here when I was feeling lost and thought my life was worthless. You were not here when I was dying because of that sacrifice spell. You were not here when my body was rotting, and my heart was almost destroyed. You were not here when I didn’t wake up for 6 months straight. You weren’t here!” Victoria screamed, her powerful scream echoing in the hall and whole mansion, making Theodore and Rsolaine, who didn’t know what was going on, come out of their rooms.
“Victoria, calm down. They had a reason to do so. They didn’t want your grandfather to know where you were, and that’s why to protect you from him, they sacrificed their love and kept you away from themselves for so long.” Alexander tried to console Victoria, however, what he didn’t know was that there was more truth and secrets to their reasons, of why they always kept her away from themselves.
“That is not the prime reason why they kept me away from themselves. Right, mom and dad?” Victoria asked, and though they were shameful of what they did and what happened, they couldn’t help but nod their heads, not wanting to hide the truth from their daughter anymore.
The truth, that was a secret between Azrael, Martha, and Nelson.
