My Personal Lycan King - Chapter 157
VICTORIA’S POV
Everyone had the same expression in the room as mine. We all were shocked.
Shocked and waiting for what was going to happen next.
I looked at Daniel, who looked at me before blinking his eyes comfortingly. His expression said that he got this covered, but did he got this covered?
Turning to my side, I looked at Alexander, who was sitting expressionlessly since earlier. Ashton was also strangely quiet today.
Well, what is one even supposed to say in a situation like this?
“So?” I finally voiced out, wanting to start just somewhere. We can’t be just sitting here like this.
We do need to come to some conclusion.
“We fight,” Daniel finally said, and I looked at him before sighing out aloud.
We fight. The words were easy said than done.
Currently, we all were thinking and discussing the strategy on how we can tackle my grandfather, who informed us of his arrival beforehand.
“The King of the white witches has arrived,” The main gatekeeper of the mansion shouted in respect before bowing at us and going back to his position.
Was this thing needed? He could’ve just arrived inside the mansion like he always does, why make it so grand? Was going to kill your granddaughter a grand event? I scoffed before looking at my grandfather, who entered the main hall, looking all majestic in his tail-coat and wand.
Yes, he was carrying his wand today. Something, I have never noticed.
“Hello, my granddaughter,” My grandfather said, his voice strangely cold, and I couldn’t help but look at him puzzled. I was used to hugging him as soon as I see him. Now, what am I supposed to do in this situation?
I was busy arranging my thoughts when my grandfather said something that stopped all my thoughts, and I went completely blank,
“When were you going to tell me that you have been haunted by Madeline recently?”
To say his question caught me off-guard would be an understatement, I was stunned beyond imagination. How did he come to know about this Madeline thing? Has someone been spying on me?
I looked at him wide-eyed, not knowing what to say when he started again.
“I am sorry. It’s my fault,” He said, walking close to me. His action immediately catching Daniel’s attention as he came and stood between my grandfather and me like a protective shield.
“The king of the dark witches, pardon me for not greeting you beforehand. Respect to the king of the dark witches, king of the vampires, and king of the wolves,” He said before looking over Daniel’s shoulder at me.
“It looks like they are going to protect you from me, no?” He asked, his words holding a strange aura.
“We can think this through, Christopher. You don’t need to kill her. Keep in mind that we might be younger than you, but we are the kings of three entities. She is holding our mates within herself. Destroying the mate of three kings, do you think your kingdom will be able to survive the destruction?” Daniel asked my grandfather, and for a moment, I was convinced that they will be able to talk things through. I was convinced, but my grandfather’s next actions caught me off-guard.
He raised his wand in the air, clicking it on the ground with huge force, and before I could see anything, both of us were teleported in the middle of nowhere.
“I think we will be able to talk better here,” He said before coming closer to me and raising his hands.
Thinking that he is going to hit me, I closed my eyes involuntarily. However, when I didn’t feel any pain, I opened my eyes slowly and looked at my grandfather, who had a soft expression on his face that was quickly replaced by the previous cold expression.
“Your grandmother has come to visit you recently, hasn’t she?” He asked, and I looked at him confused, not knowing where this question was coming from.
Were we here to talk?
Well, anything is good as long as he doesn’t kill me.
I nodded my head in reply to his question before trying to channel Daniel mentally. I need him to know where I am in case a fight breaks out between us.
Wincing when I was hit back with my energy, I looked at my grandfather, who chuckled at me before smirking.
“Trying to contact your little boyfriend here?” He asked, his eyes turning a shade darker.
“I might not have told you this earlier, sweetheart. But I hate it when I am interrupted like this. I have brought you here to ask a few questions, and I will leave you unharmed after you answer them, okay?” He asked and I didn’t know what to say.
Does that mean I won’t be able to tell anyone where I am? Does that mean he can have a fight with me and kill me here, and anyone won’t even come to know how I died? I thought, my mind becoming a hazy mess of questions.
“Haha… look at your face. Do you think I was serious just now? I was kidding, sweetheart.” He said, and I smiled at him awkwardly.
Honestly, I don’t think he is in the right mind today. One moment, he is smiling at me like I am his favourite girl in the world, and the next moment, he is acting cold as if he is going to kill me the next second.
“It’s your grandmother.” He said before looking at me intently, and I waited for him to continue what he was saying.
“I mean, your grandmother is the reason for what is happening to you. The one who is the reason you were born a hybrid. She is the reason you suffered this much under the curse. I know all of this is confusing to you, and that’s why I brought you here so that I can tell you the truth before we do anything. The reason you are seeing Madeline more often these days is that your grandmother has activated the spell that she might have cast on you when were born.
The reason for your birth was to serve Madeline itself. The reason I wanted to kill you.
Madeline, she was your grandmother’s elder sister,” My grandfather said, and it felt like my whole world came crushing.
