The Black Mist Enchantress - Chapter 95
” Lamia and Emmy are connected to the same entity”
” Which entity are you referring to, Jordan?”
” The Black Mist Enchantress..”
The whole group was astonished hearing Jordan’s explanation. This was not the first time they all felt the similarities between Emmy and Lamia but no one expected the two to have a direct connection to the main protagonist of the whole story.
Emmy was so shocked that she forgot to breathe for a few seconds, it was only when Alex held her close to his chest she could relax. She knew that something was mysterious about herself, but who could tell that now she was connected to the very root of the core power world.
” Emmy, I promise you to solve it as soon as possible, you know when I went inside the pathway, I encountered a vision in which both of us were in front of a triangular building. The picturesque was filled with lots of happiness, do not worry. I will safeguard you from any of those core powers.”
Emmy put her hands around Alex’s chiseled chest, when everyone thought that she might be holding it hard in her mind, Emmy was worried about something else. Seeing her so silent and depressed, Alex couldn’t take it anymore.
” What is in your mind Emmy? Please, you do not need to keep things to yourself anymore, I am here, I will be there with you always to share every burden and happiness that you have. Do say, what is going inside your mind?”
Emmy looked straight to his eyes, she did not care about anyone besides them. Yes, she was getting nervous, what if … what if the suspicion arising in her mind came true, no , she could not think of such an outcome. Emmy hugged him tightly and when Alex thought she was going to speak up, instead he heard slight sobbing. His outer robe became wet with her tears rolling down. He felt as if his heart was suddenly ripped apart and his breathing hitched.
Alex tried to calm Emmy down by patting her back and stroking her head yet Emmy had no intention of stopping her tears. Finally, Alex could not take it anymore, he forcefully separated her hands which were wound over his waist and knelt down in front of her.
” Please dear… tell me, what is bothering you this much ?”
Emmy looked at the pained expression on her beloved’s face, she calmed down. Then she wiped her tears and cupped her hands over his face.
” Alex, you are the only heir to the supreme lord’s legacy and now if I am also connected directly to the black enchantress, does it not make us siblings?”
Alex had run a thousand hurdles thinking what was bothering Emmy yet she gave him the totally opposite reason which he would never think of. He couldn’t laugh seeing her expression but still, his laughter broke the silent surrounding.
” Emmy, my sweet little wife, even if I am the only heir of the Zucathore clan, how come we can be siblings huh? If you are even directly connected to the enchantress, then I can count you as my aunt’s relative. Relax, we know you are the daughter of the great shadow guard of the Esbertrazian clan, Shawn Esbertraz and Lilian Dargardian, so no need of getting worried about being siblings.”
Alex poked her head and pulled her close to him. With their lips almost touching each other, Alex held her both sides and said, ” Emmy, we are destined to be together. Nothing can separate us now. We will solve all the mysteries about us. I feel we need to search for the Yalasgue family details, why were they mysterious and in what aspect? Nothing has been recorded about the existence of such a family clan.”
Emmy nodded her head and before she could stand up on her feet, Alex sealed her lips with his. That kiss lasted long enough yet it didn’t stop even if they both started having lack of air.
Finally, when Alex left her lips, Emmy’s face was deep red in colour and her legs were softer but thanks to Alex, he carried her before she fell. The lovely couple then happily started packing for their return journey.
Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the ancestral hall of the Posei family was thunderous. Juliet’s parents were summoned and they saw that their precious daughters were held captives inside the hall. Both of them were asked to kneel down and it has been continuous three hours that they had been kneeling in front of the ancestors.
” How can your father be so merciless towards our precious daughters?”
Grace couldn’t keep her sound lower and every other clan member was disgusted before of her shrew behaviour inside the most spiritual place of the clan. All others knew why the Posei daughters were asked to kneel down, this was actually the minimum punishment for those who dared to disobey the clan head’s orders.
” Guards, release my daughters now itself.”
Their father, Walter Posei roared at the guards yet no guards even paid attention to him. They treated this couple as smoke because they knew that the clan head had issued a decree to remove this son and daughter-in-law from the clan.
Seeing the behaviour of the guards, it infuriated Waltren more. He tried to push the guards who were standing in between the entrance of the hall. Before any fight could start, the guards trounced him and locked his meridians. Now Walter could move his hands nor legs, he was like a statue who could speak.
Watching her husband being taken down by the guards, Grace started screaming cursing words to the entire Posei clan.
” SILENCE….”
A sudden roar echoed in and out of the ancestral hall.
Grandfather Posei walked through the crowd and saw his only son and wife behaving impertinently. He sat on the head throne and asked guards to release Walter’s meridians.
After getting the ability to move, Walter rushed into the front row and shouted, ” Father, they are your granddaughters, how could you punish them like this, what fault they did do, can’t they come inside their own place”Respected clan members, hereby I announce that Walter Posei and Grace Beeters has no relation to the Posei family. They are cut off from our familial tree but their daughters will be taken care of.”
Walter could not believe that his father would issue a decree like this, being cut out from the family clan, what respect would he have in the society now. He glared at his father but chose to remain quiet because he knew once his father takes a decision, he won’t ever budge.
Still, Walter was confused, whatever mistakes he committed in the past, his father had compromised with it but what happened now, just because his daughters took a stroll along the beachside won’t infuriate his father. He looked at his kneeling daughters and asked “Bianca, my dearest. Tell father what happened at the beachside.”
Walter and Grace thought that their daughters would answer their question swiftly but both Bianca and Feona kept silent with their heads low. Grace knew her daughters well, with their reaction, it was clear that they had done something wrong.
” They are punished for two things, firstly, for disobeying the decree of the clan head, secondly, I am ashamed of saying the second reason but since they have no shame in committing the sin then why should I bother. Your daughters tried to seduce their brother-in-law openly. I should have thrown these two also out of the clan but thinking about Juliet, I reconsidered my decision.”
Hearing grandfather Posei siding with Juliet and for her sake, being generous to her daughter, Grace couldn’t take it anymore. Her rational mind snapped out, anger made her blind and she spilt out the confidential secret that was kept hidden for long.
” How dare you punish my daughters for the sake of that prodigy of the wild son. You want to make your wild son the next heir, no never, I would not allow for it till my death. These properties and royalties are for my children. Whatever you may try, I will make sure to kill her the next time I see her. ”
When the unspeakable truth of the great clan leader was spoken out in public, Grace thought all clan members would side with her but who knew that even her husband looked at her with complete abhorrence.
” What did I tell wrong here huh, why are all of you glaring at me?”
The members looked at the clan leader who sat there without any expression, everyone knew what was going inside their clan leader’s mind now. All of them wanted to shred this shrew woman into pieces for making him remember the past.
Grandfather Posei stood up, ” Walter, take your two daughters away and ensure that till the day I die, I should not see you four people ever.”
Just as he raised his head, he was shocked and he even missed his next step.
On the entrance stood Juliet, who had said everything her so-called mother had said previously. Mike held her protectively in his embrace but still, the pain was clearly seen in her eyes.
” Whatever mother said, is it true grandpa??? “
