VICTORIA’S POV
“Haha… What are you going to do about it?” Ashton asked me when I didn’t reply to his attack for a few seconds.
We had been fighting for the last thirty minutes, and I am ashamed to say this, but he was having the upper hand in this fight.
“What happened? Cat got your tongue?” He asked again, and I gritted my teeth angrily.
‘You can do this, Victoria. Have a little bit of faith in your body. Let it act on its own accord.’ Carla said, and I nodded my head at her suggestion. She was right. I need to have some faith in myself. I was the hybrid. The strongest in the world.
“You want to know?” I asked, my voice dangerously low.
Looking up, I smirked at Ashton before running towards him and holding his neck. Turning his hands at an odd angle, I was about to break them when he turn
VICTORIA’S POV‘You’ve got to be kidding me.’ That’s exactly what I wanted to shout at my stupidity.After drowning for five minutes, I finally realized the thing, he was trying to tell me for half an hour. And that was my main element was not fire but water.Though Fire was my most developed element because I have been comfortable with it and was the first power that made its appearance known to me when I just learned about my magic, water has always been the power that has protected me since my birth.Closing my eyes, I opened my palms wide before swirling them in the water, making a hurricane and controlling it.‘Well, that was easy.’ I thought, however, my moment of happiness was cut short when the water started drowning me more.“You can do it, Victoria. You can control it.” I heard Daniel’s voice
VICTORIA’S POVAlexander? I am sure I heard Alexander’s voice. What is he doing here? How did he reach here? Is everything okay with the kingdom? Has my grandfather come to visit him?Many questions were swirling inside my head, and as darkness was consuming me, it was as if something or particularly someone was stopping me from entering the dark abyss.But what could it be? The magic was nothing like Neptune’s magic. While Neptune’s magic appeared cold and soothing, this magic was something warm that was filling my heart with care and love.Someone who knows that I am not allowed to sleep. Someones who loves me and is afraid that something will happen to me.After a constant struggle of being on the verge of losing my consciousness and groaning as I held onto that someone’s healing powers, I finally opened my eyes when someone lifted my body.
VICTORIA’S POV“I am displeased that I wasn’t involved in this plan. Do you not trust me, Victoria? There had been so many times when I have saved you, yet you don’t trust me? You wounded my heart today.” My grandma Azrael said, and for a moment, I felt a little bit of guilt gnawing at me, but the feeling was gone as soon as it appeared.“It’s not her fault. Don’t blame her, okay? She is already going through a hard time. Increasing the mental pressure on her with your emotional drama should be the last thing you should be doing here,” Daniel said, and I wanted to laugh at his straightforward words as I was glad that he saved the situation because I seriously didn’t know what to say or do when she said those words.If my grandma was offended by his words, then she masked it very perfectly because the next thing we know, she started asking about the plan again. H
VICTORIA’S POV“What did you call me?” I asked, my eyes widening as I looked at him with disbelief.“I called you a filthy hybrid. A filthy hybrid that I know is going to be the death of me. And I would rather you stay away from me because being touched by a hybrid that I need to kill is the last thing I want right now. Got a problem with that?” My grandpa said, and I looked at him for a few seconds before smiling evilly at him.“A filthy hybrid? Is this what I am to you? Just a filthy hybrid? Am I not your granddaughter? The granddaughter that you should love and cherish? Fine! Yes! Yes, I am a filthy hybrid, and this filthy hybrid has decided to hug her grandpa. Got a problem with that? If yes, then you can leave from here. Leave me alone so that I can drown in the sorrow of the pain and-” I started, wanting to annoy him with my emotional drama, and it indeed worked.&nb
VICTORIA’S POV“Are you guys for real?!” I couldn’t help but shout as soon as they opened the door with a loud bang. I could see their eyes going wide as they took in my appearance, and I felt my face burning with embarrassment.I had just taken a shower because I was feeling kind of uncomfortable and dirty since I had a rough fight outside the mansion, and no one bothered to help me take a bath when I was down, and with the appearance of Azrael in my room and fussing about how we weren’t including her in our plan and everything, my bath had gotten delayed. And currently, I was standing in the middle of the room with just a towel around me when they had opened the door.Of course, this was the image I wanted to portray in their heads. I had faked this look of mine deliberately for them to think about things like this.It was a good thing that Grandfather’s se
VICTORIA’S POVStanding in front of the mirror, I looked at my reflection and couldn’t help but wince at the girl that was staring back at me.It has been 20 days since my training started, and my life became a living hell. Every day Daniel and Ashton were harder with their moves than the previous day. Daniel had suggested Alexander train me too, but he didn’t take the advice, which I was glad for, or I think I would’ve died by now.My grandfather has been visiting me at random times and days in between, which I was grateful for because he was kind of providing me the moral support that I needed the most in this bruised condition of mine.Daniel doesn’t suspect anything. He thinks that it’s my Magna trying to elaborate and expand itself, and I can’t be any less guilty about it.After the incident that happened that day, the guys have learned to knock before they
VICTORIA'S POV"Are you ready?" Daniel asked me, and honestly, I didn't know how to answer that question.I didn’t even know in what context was he asking me the question. Was he asking me about the cutting of my birthday cake, or was he asking me about my recent battle with my grandfather that will be happening sooner or later?Honestly, I was ready for neither of them. My mind was occupied by too many things to celebrate my birthday happily. However, knowing that it will make them sad, I went along with the flow and smiled at their preparations.Today was my 22nd birthday, and according to my parents, my grandfather will come to kill me today or within the next two days.If it would’ve been earlier, then I wouldn’t have been worried so much about this fact, but now that I know that my grandfather might try to kill me because of the presence of Madeline in my body, I cou
VICTORIA’S POVEveryone 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.
