My Personal Lycan King - Chapter 127
Chapter-42
“Nelson, let’s go today. I think it’s the right time to meet our daughter. She needs us, Nelson. Besides, if father wanted to attack her, he would’ve already done when the throne cracked.
However, he has not attacked her till now, which only one thing that he is waiting for some big day for it to happen. And I think I know what day he is thinking about.
Victoria will turn 22 in the coming month. Maybe he will try to kill her on that day. We still have 20 days before that happens. Let’s go and meet her today. Okay?” Martha asked Nelson, who nodded at his wife.
Meanwhile, in the royal chamber of Alexander’s mansion, Victoria sat quietly looking at Ashton as if he was some kind of alien. She has been sitting in the same position with the same expression on her face since Ashton told her that he was her third mate.
“Honestly, I don’t understand anything. Since I have turned 18, these weird things keep happening to me that even don’t make sense to me anymore.” Victoria said before a streak of tear fell from her eyes.
“First, I was a telepathic girl, and no one loved me. They would run away from me like I was some kind of monster. Then my adoptive parents died, and I came to know that my biological parents were alive and had deliberately sent me off.
When I came here, I came to know I wasn’t only telepathic, but I had witch powers too. Then, I met Alexander, and slowly I came to know that I wasn’t only a witch, I was a werewolf too, and not just any wolf, a legendary wolf, and the only hybrid in the world that even her grandfather wants to kill. Then came a greedy witch into the picture, who wanted to trade me off and performed a spell on me. In that sacrifice spell, to save my mate from it, I took the spell, and lost my child.
After that, my witch powers took over me and controlled me for two years.
Then I came here, and I came to know that my mate was alive, but the mate bond has been broken, and we are still in the mess of my grandfather wanting to kill me.
Now today, you sent a girl who awakened the vampire side of mine called Emerald. Now I am a vampire too.” Victoria paused to wipe her tears before speaking again.
“Just fuckin’ wow! Is this some kind of joke or what? I have not even smiled that much in my life compared to the tears I have shed. It feels like someone is playing a sick joke with me and testing different things with me. The witch didn’t do much good, let’s add the werewolf. Oh no.. it is getting boring, let’s add the vampire too. And now let’s make her suffer among three men who want her and are her mate.” Victoria shouted, venting out all her anger, frustration, irritation, and humiliation.
Alexander, who was back from his run and was about to open the gate, paused in his actions when he heard Victoria’s words.
Taking a deep breath, he leaned on the sidewall, feeling guilty of his actions earlier.
He was angry at Victoria, angry at his fate, and more than that he was angry at her hybrid self.
But now that he heard her words of frustration, he couldn’t help but feel bad about it.
Everyone was acting selfishly along with her. Everyone wants their mate back, wants to be loved, wants to be with her, but nobody thinks about what she must be feeling. A girl who was living a normal life all these years is suddenly asked to entangle with the supernatural species, and not that alone, she is also expected to love three men at once.
She didn’t choose to be a hybrid, neither did she chose to have soo many mates, yet she was the one whose feelings were played the most.
“I understand your frustration, Victoria. Honestly, from what I and your other mate have studied about you and your powers, you are not the first hybrid in this world.” Ashton said before walking towards her.
Victoria, who saw him coming towards her, shifted back involuntarily, making him sigh.
“I know that you won’t accept me as your mate. Not until Emerald is in full control. But you can at least take me as your friend? If I wanted to hurt you, then I would’ve done it long ago and called my Emerald out. But I want to make it work for all of us. So rather than being afraid of me, can you trust me a little?” Ashton asked, making Victoria squint her brows before she nodded slightly. The fear, still evident in her eyes.
With a soft smile plastered on his face, he scooted closer to Victoria before pulling her in a hug, his smile becoming wider.
“Thank you for trusting me.” He said before continuing his story again,
“As I was saying, you were not the first hybrid. Around 1500 years ago, one more hybrid was created accidentally. She was a result of the negligence of gods. She was called Madeline. To say she was a heavenly beauty on earth would be an understatement, she was a god of beauty herself. Gifted with the powers of a witch, vampire, and Werewolf, she was the only hybrid of that time.
At that time because of some issues in the species, a war was going to happen. However, because of her birth, everything stopped. With her innocent face, everyone thought that she brought peace to the world.
But only those who truly knew her understood how wrong everyone was.” Ashton said, making Victoria look up from his chest, not understanding why he was telling her this mystical story.
“She was a devil. Worse than the species of the dark world. Even though she was the most powered woman in the world, she was more greedy. Greedy and hungry for more power. She wanted to surpass gods and rule over both bright and dark world species. And for that, she killed Sebastian, the only person who was supposed to love her and bring the good out of her, Sebastian, her mate.
When the only person that could’ve brought the love from her died, all the gods became apprehensive. They started finding ways to kill this Madeline.
And Madeline, on the other hand, started wiping the human race from the world. My grandfather told me, it was truly a mess.
After searching for a while, the gods finally came with a solution of killing her. And that was segregation. Segregating the powers out of her body forcefully would lead her to become either human or her death. Do you know what those powers were called?” Ashton asked, and Victoria, who was concentrating on the story widened her eyes at the realization.
“Were those, Jasmine, Carla, and Emerald?” She asked stunned.
“Yes. The gods of all the powers, Moon Goddess, Ariana, who was the goddess of the witch at that time, and Shane, who was the god of vampires, appeared and called out their respective species powers out from her.
The result was, all the powers when pulled out were locked in the different dungeons so that they could forget Madeline and forget about her evil ways. Madeline, who was barred from all her powers, didn’t die because of the effects of the spell, however, she was so hungry for power that she thought living without her powers was meaningless, and thus, she killed herself.
Carla was freed 600 years ago because of her patient and calm behavior. When you were born through the mistake again, the powers Jasmine and Emerald were released, but no one had thought that the gods will play that nasty game again, and all the powers will conjoin inside you.” Ashton completed, and Alexander, who was sitting out of the room and was also hearing his explanation, took a deep breath before standing again.
“So, does that make me Madeline? Will I be the cause of the death of my loved ones?” Victoria asked as fear crept inside her heart.
“No, mi amore, you can’t hurt a fly even if you want, let alone your loved ones. Though, I can’t guarantee the same about your powers. Now, I think you should take a rest so that you’ll be ready for the training. Neptune has talked to you about it, hadn’t he?” Ashton asked, making her nod her head.
“Good. Now, rest. The information is too much, and you and your powers, who will gain recognition of their past, need time to get over this. Sleep.” Ashton said before laying her in the bed and then bending to kiss her forehead.
Exiting the room after looking at Victoria one last time, Ashton smirked when he saw Alexander standing there.
“You could’ve come inside you know. It’s bad to eavesdrop.” Ashton commented, making Alexander roll his eyes as he followed him back in the hall.
“So about the thing, you said that you will help her, what is it about? And is it true that gods are playing a nasty game as you’ve said?” Alexander asked, his king’s attitude taking place since he was talking to another king.
“Or why would they try to create a hybrid with four different personalities? If a person has two powers, then also it is a hybrid. I am sure they were tired and wanted some fun in their life.
Regarding this mate thing, I think we all need to help each other.” Ashton said, making Alexander nod.
He would do everything to get his love. She has done and suffered enough. Now it was time for her to stay back and watch how they fight the gods for her.
