Chapter 112 - Book-2 -27
Chapter-27 Switching between her powers.
Entering the Mansion like the queen she was, Victoria looked towards the stage, making a beeline towards it. She was happy that she was back, and she wanted to announce it to the world the first thing so that jasmine will have a shorter side of the stick next time she tries to take over her again.
"Jasmine, where have you-
" Theodore started but was cut off when Victoria turned around.
Looking at the girl that they had cremated two years ago, Theodore stumbled back wide-eyed, his eyes brimming with tears, unable to speak anymore.
"Hello to you too, uncle.
" Victoria nodded before looking at her to-be husband, whose eyes were looking around while he was talking to some elder members of the pack.
Yes, he was her future husband, and now that she was back, she was intending on making it true soon.
Reaching the bottom stairs of the stage where the throne seat of Alpha king and the queen was placed, she sat her first step on the stairs, smiling when it shook a little under her foot. Even the stairs were welcoming their queen.
"Jasmine, you can't go there. That's not your place or a place where you can have fun. Only Alpha king and the queen are allowed to go there.
" Melissa immediately interrupted when she saw Jasmine setting her foot on the stairs, ready to go.
"Yeah, and who you would be to stop me?
" Victoria asked with an evil glint in her eyes. She didn't want to harm anyone, but she was right now on a mission. The mission of announcing her arrival, and she hated her interruption like this.
Having been living in the conscience of Jasmine for so long, she was no longer the sweet girl who would take just anyone's words and ** so easily. If she was sarcastic earlier, then she was the queen of 'I don't take a ** from anyone' now.
Also, from her almost constant presence in Jasmine's mind, she knew that this girl was eyeing her husband, a thing that was least tolerable to her.
"I am Alpha king's secretary, Melissa, the-
" Melissa started but was cut off by Victoria.
"Piss off,
" Victims said with a cold smile on her face before ascending the stairs.
Melissa, who didn't take a hint from her expression, held on Victoria's hand, her hand immediately burning when she touched her.
"What the-
" Melissa started, startled by the burning sensation, however, before she could say anything or react, she found herself, standing in the dungeons of the mansion.
"What the! How the hell did I reach here?!
" She shrieked, gagging at the foul smell.
Smiling, after she teleported the intruder to the dungeons, Victoria started ascending the stairs again.
Once on the stage, she turned around, flailing her large skirt and train of the skirt along with her.
Taking the mic in her hand, she started the music, startling everyone who was talking around.
"Guess I'm under your control. I can't take it any, anymore.
" She sang, startling Alexander, who couldn't see her face because of the shield she created around herself, but it didn't mean he didn't recognize the voice and the song.
"I .. I'll be back,
" Alexander said to the elders before rushing towards the stairs of the throne, without even waiting for anyone's reply, however, as soon as he reached there, Victoria teleported herself from the stage to the middle of the hall, wanting to play a little with him.
"How are you going to play me like that? Why do you make it so complicated? You won't even search for me, you won't even try to look for me. I was just hiding somewhere near you.
You know the ways to keep me waiting. Tell me I should come over and I can just close the door.
" Victoria sang while looking at Alexander straight in the eyes.
Robert, who also recognized her voice, just shook his head when he couldn't locate her around.
"She is as mischievous as she was.
" He commented before going out of the mansion feeling a small pang in his heart.
Smiling at Alexander as she stopped singing and started moving towards him, she clicked her fingers to extend the shield to Alexander too before she teleported both of them to his room.
"Victoria?
" Alexander asked, too distracted to care about his surroundings anymore.
"The one and only, my Alpha.
" Victoria smiled before smirking at him with a proud tone.
"How…I thought-
" Alexander trailed, wanting nothing more than to hug her and feel her body so that he could confirm that she was really here and not just one of his dreams and illusions that he keeps on having. Closing his eyes to feel her with her smell more than her body, Alexander smiled when he smelled that she was indeed Victoria, just without her wolf Carla.
Victoria waited for him patiently to confirm that it indeed was her and not her powers, smiling with warmth in her eyes when Alexander opened his eyes and gazed at her lovingly.
"My Ria,
" Alexander murmured before closing the distance between them, wanting to hug her. Hugging her tightly, and finding that it wasn't compensating enough for the loss he felt, he created some distance among themselves before pulling her with a jerk after he confirmed again that it was his Luna.
Smiling with his face in the crook of her neck, he kissed her neck where he wanted to mark her earlier before he lifted his head, wanting to kiss her.
However, as soon as his lips were a few cm apart,
"Damien? Alpha Damien? Are you okay?
" He heard voices around him, making him open his eyes abruptly.
"Are you okay, son? You've been sitting there motionless for quite some time.
" Theodore asked, both confused and concerned.
"Victoria. Where did she go? I saw Victoria. She was here. She even sang a song for me. Then she teleported herself and me into the room, and we hugged. I smelled her scent, and it was indeed her. I was about to-
" Alexander stopped as he looked at everyone's weird and concerned expression.
"You guys don't believe me, do you?
" Alexander asked, and everyone shook their heads at him.
"I am not alone. There's someone else who can testify my words. She has even teleported Melissa to the dungeons. You guys can-
". Alexander's voice was cut off when he saw Melissa standing there with a glass of water in her hand.
"Why don't you guys believe me? She was here. I saw her with my own two eyes.
" Alexander said, more like shouted.
"Brother, calm down. If she was here, we all would've seen her, haven't we? You came to me to ask where Jasmine was, and after I told you that I don't know and just talked to her about Victoria, you had left. Since then you've been sitting on this chair emotionless.
" Robert said.
"But how could this be,
" Alexander said.
"I think you need to rest son,
" Theodore said, making Alexander shake his head in return.
"I am fine. Maybe you guys are right. Maybe I was just having an illusion.
" Alexander said.
Meanwhile, in the hidden corner of the garden, Victoria was having a tough time with Jasmine, who was trying to take over her again.
"How dare you interrupt my time with my love? And more than that, how dare you to erase everyone's memories again!
" Victoria screeched in anger, tempted to release Carla, who would deal with Jasmine on her own, in her own unique way because she herself was a queen.
Everything that happened inside the mansion, Alexander seeing Victoria, touching her, Victoria singing song, teleporting themselves was real, however, as soon as Jasmine, who had fainted because of the load of energy she felt, recovered from the initial trauma as her energy passed the seventh level domain, she immediately teleported herself out of the mansion while erasing everyone's memories.
Alexander, who was a King, remembered everything because of his own strength and powers, making everyone think that he was being delusional, and Theodore who was the previous king was confused, if the person he saw was Victoria or Jasmine.
"No wonder everyone has been mistaking me for you. It looks like we both are the same.
" Jasmine said more like hissed, finally believing the truth that she should have realized herself many days ago or when Daniel clearly mentioned it today.
"Keep down, Jasmine! It's about time I take over my body.
" Victoria said, struggling hard.
"No, Victoria, it's not. Until Daniel tells me to do so, and I think that it's a perfect time, I won't allow it.
" Jasmine shouted back before taking over the body.
"I don't remember Daniel saying anything. Besides, why does it matter? He is just our brother, Jasmine.
" Victoria shouted before taking back on her body.
"I am not talking about Daniel our brother, I am talking about Daniel Neptune,
" Jasmine shouted back, stunning Victoria as she let Jasmine take over her body again.
"Daniel Neptune? How do you know him?
" Victoria asked, Carla immediately reacting violently at the mention of the name as she growled loudly, but before Jasmine could answer her question, she felt herself being knocked down by a strong force of energy.
Turning around, she looked at Azrael, who was seething with anger before she lost her consciousness again.
