Chapter 33 Heated Discussion
Meanwhile, at this time in a dark room, five people were in a heated discussion. A red-haired guy stood at the side with his fist clenched in anger. He doesn’t agree with them in any way, he’s brainstorming to find a way to make them see things from his perspective.
“We can’t expose ourselves even if our Queen is out there, we have to wait for the right time!” Avatia, a beautiful lady who looks like she’s in her early twenties, spoke.
“You are wrong. Our kind has been in hiding for centuries! No one knows about our kind because we’ve been waiting for our Queen. Now that she’s here, we can’t stay hidden anymore. The world must know of our kind!” Celine argued.
Stephan, a white-haired guy who has also been quiet, snorted, “Oh? So if the world knows about our kind, you think they won’t find a way to wipe us out from the surface of the earth? They did that centuries ago, who knows if they won’t repeat history.”
“They won’t because our Queen is there. That’s what the prophecy said.” Celine spat.
“You should know that the Queen in question is not yet prepared for the so-called ‘prophecy’ Theo, the last guy in the room slowly said, “she doesn’t even know of our kind yet nor does she know what she truly is.”
“That is why we are here to help her out!” Celine exclaimed.
Stephan clears his throat, “No, that is out of the question. We have to let her develop in her way till we find the right time to reveal things to her. Besides, she still has her mates to worry about, revealing our kind to her will put too much pressure on her.”
“We are already putting too much pressure on her Stephan, she has to know that those two are her mates! She can’t choose between them or else it will lead to disaster as the prophecy had said, and our kind will be doomed. We need to let her know of our kind, that way will she know what to do and at the same time, know about us.” Avatia suggested.
The red-haired guy by the corner bangs his hand on the table, drawing everyone’s attention.
“If you all will just hear me out for five minutes, you will know that this conversation you are having is useless!”
Hearing his statement, everyone glanced at their selves and shrugged. “Go on then, Xavier, let us hear what you have to say,” Celine mumbled.
“Thank you, Celine, like I said, this discussion is pointless. Whether we like it or not, the Queen will know about us sooner or later, it’s just a matter of time.”
They all gaze at him, waiting for him to elaborate. When he didn’t, Theo growled, “What do you mean by that?”
Xavier came out of the shadows and sat on his chair, “I mean, the witch who cast the spell on our Queen when she was a baby, is dying. And you know what happens when the witch dies, right?”
Everyone cursed, “How is that possible?”
“How much time does she have left?”
“Not much time I guess, the witch is already so old, she’s barely holding on. Her magic is also fading.” Xavier stared at all of them then continued, “I visited our Queen today…”
“You what?!”
“How dare you reveal us to the world, Xavier?”
“How could you?” They all asked at the same time.
“Please, hear me out for a minute, I didn’t reveal myself to the world. I only watched the Queen from afar and as I did, I found out two things. Firstly, the hunters are planning to capture her, they want to know what relationship she has with both a werewolf and a vampire. You should know that Vampires and werewolves don’t usually get along, so they find their recent meetings suspicious. The hunters almost attacked the Queen today but thankfully, I was there to stop them” Xavier took a deep breath before saying what has been troubling him “secondly, I have a theory that as the witch’s power is fading, the spell she cast on her Highness is also fading.”
“What do you mean?” Avatia asked.
“Today, I watched as she became alerted when she sensed danger. It means her instinct is slowly recovering. If something happens to the witch, it means the spell cast on her will vanish. If our Queen is as strong as the prophecy says, then she might forcefully break the spell.”
Everyone fell into deep thought when he finished speaking. They couldn’t help but feel baffled by the revelation. If what he says is true, then things are about to go haywire.
“So, what are we going to do now?” Theo asked after a few seconds of silence.
Xavier stood up from his chair and gaze at all of them, “We would go with Avatia’s suggestion, we can’t let her choose between her mates. Moreover, we won’t interfere with her relationship, but we’d monitor her closely, in the process we would protect her during her mates’ absence while staying on alert if, in any case, the spell wears off.”
They all nodded, “We would need a witch to cast a spell on us. Can’t have the werewolf sniffing us out.” Celine said.
Everyone agreed, before heading out to prepare. It was only Stephan that waited behind, he believed Xavier didn’t tell them everything. Once everyone left, he met Xavier’s gaze, “About the hunters, you didn’t tell us everything, did you?”
Xavier smiled, as expected, Stephan still managed to know this. Stephan always observes things, so he’s not surprised that he waited behind. “Indeed, I left out some details because I’m not sure about it myself. There’s some news that both werewolf and vampire hunters are cooperating to deal with her Highness Mate’s.”
“What?”
~ Rakel’s POV ~
Fuck! What made me choose this movie in the first place? I must be stupid to think my mate will jump me if we watch for some time. However, thirty minutes have passed, and she isn’t squirming on her seat like I thought she would, rather, she was relaxed on her chair, watching as the man fucked the lady with interest. I haven’t even perceived any arousal from her, which was weird, it’s as if the movie doesn’t have any effect on her.
At some point in the movie, she would lean towards me and whisper “The man is hot, don’t you think?”
I mean, how the fuck does she expect me to answer that? She is admiring another man while I’m here. If it was any other day, I would have spanked her, so she won’t look at any other man but me. As for now, I could only fume inwardly because I’m courting her, and we’ve agreed I won’t be dominating in any way.
Delaney’s eyes grew wide as the man flipped the actress over then began pumping her again, “Ooh, so damn hot!” Laney cooed.
Okay, I’ve heard enough! I stood up, grabbed her arms, and dragged her out of the hall.
“Let me go, Rakel! What did you do that for?”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
I scoffed, doesn’t she know that already? “We are done watching movies,” I announced as we walked outside.
“Or could it be that someone can’t watch erotic movies for an hour without being horny?” She drawled sexily. Damn! Why is it that everything she does seems so alluring? The way she smells, talks, giggles…everything! It’s taking everything in me not to give into Ryder’s demands to mark and claim what is ours.
I halt on my step, pulled her into my arms, and did what I’ve been longing to do. I kissed her, hard, demanding, and rough. The kiss is filled with promises of things I’ll do to her in bed when the time comes. My fingers dive into her hair, tilting her head, so I can deepen the kiss. I was glad that she didn’t pull back rather, she kissed me back, fiercely. Her little tongue plunges into my mouth shyly as if trying to explore, but this was no time for that. I could tell she’s still new at kissing, I’ll teach her everything she needs to know some other time. For now, I’m getting what I wanted, which is to kiss her small mouth. It’s only when we both needed air that I pulled back.
Delaney gazes up at me in a daze, “You know, kissing isn’t allowed when courting someone.”
“I don’t play by rules, darling, or should I say Ms. Screamy.”
“Please, don’t call me that.”
I smirked, “By the way, I’m not affected by the movie, you’re the one affecting me.” I whispered in her ears, leaving her stunned.
“I’m guessing you want to see Ryder now, don’t you?”
The excitement is now back in her eyes, she nodded eagerly. I shook my head and led her to an isolated place not too far from her house. I wonder why she’s even living in such kind of place. I hope she chooses me quickly, so I can take her out of this place.
Like the last time, I didn’t give her a warning, I began undressing in front of her.
“Oh for goodness’ sake, have some sense of decency Rakel!” she scolded, but what surprised me is that she didn’t look away. She gapes at me eagerly as I stripped before her. I decided to make a good show for her by stripping slowly. I took off my shirt, next, my pants.
I heard her breath hitched and glance up to see her blushing from head to toe without taking her eyes off my big brother down there. “Like what you see, Delaney? It’s much better than the man’s in the movie, don’t you think?”
I made sure no one was nearby before letting Ryder take control. I know he needed this more because it’s hard staying away from his mate. If I don’t let him spend some time with her now, he will ruin my plans by marking her forcefully, and that might cause her to hate me for life. So, I have to take things one step at a time, now that I have gotten her to be free with me today, tomorrow, I will mark her.
