BXBX NOVEL Chapter 232 - Back To Us
RECOMMENDED SONG: This Love By Taylor
Swift ~?
Katherine wished to find out a hole underneath her feet in order hide her blackened face of embarrassment. Watching the woman's flourishing skin which appeared fresh and lively which could only be seen after an intercourse was enough to egnite the fire inside Katherine.
Her lips quivered lightly in anger. Trying to put on an act of pitiness, Katherine suddenly teared up her eyes and asked Ethan between her light sobbing,
" Brother Ethan..Look at this woman's attitude..I am carrying your child..How can she look down on me? Why aren't you asking her to shut up? "
Ethan could only lean against the doorway leisurely. He was too bored to watch her usual drama. Thus he chose to stay quite and let Athena handle this matter on her way. He knew very well that his girl was quite ill tempered. At least he had personally witnessed many scenes. It was lucky for him that she fell in love with him or else he could have dead so far if he chose to chase her in a typical way.
Athena narrowed her gaze dangerously and wanted to vent out her long buried anger on this shameless woman. Just when she decided to blurt out something more humaliating, Katherine's Mother suddenly joined the show with a howl of fake crying.
She literally ran over to Katherine's side and howled pitifully,
" O my child! Why are you crying? Is this woman bullying you? Tell your mother! She will seek justice for you."
Katherine's Mother spoke patting on Katherine's back and shot a knife glare to Athena who kept smiling at their mutual act.
No wonder Katherine had learnt so many tricks at this young age! It seemed like her mother was the mastermind behind everything!
A little while ago, Katherine was receiving immense pamper from Queen Melinda. Naturally Queen Melinda was floating in clouds after receiving the news that their first heir was going to born as she wasn't aware of Ayra's existence. It was still a debate that whether she would accept Ayra as her heir or not. Katherine seized this opportunity of bribing some maids from the castle. Thus one of them informed her secretly that Ethan had gone into Athena's room and hadn't left for a long time. Anyone could assume that what was going on inside. Since he had finally become the king, no one had anything to say regarding his decisions.
Katherine shedded her crocodile tears and howled more to her mother's words miserably,
" Mother! Look at this woman! She..she has dared to tell me that I can be concubine only..Mom, you should speak for me.."
Katherine's Mother face paled in anger. She glared at Athena's smiling face harshly and blurted out in rage,
" BITCH! How dare you..."
" Watch your words, Madame! ", Athena growled back in low enraged voice. Her eyes slightly dialeted in anger as she added proudly,
" Don't regard me as cheap as your daughter. Apart from being a vampire, don't forget that I am the Royal Princess of Vampire world. One command from me is enough to destroy your whole family."
Katherine's Mother was stunned including Katherine who had to swallow back her harsh words forcibly. In their rage, they forgot about her real identity and thought of defaming her without any hesitation.
Katherine's Mother seemed defeated by Athena's words. She withdrawed her dagger eyes from her and mumbled fearfully,
" If you are that honourable Princess, why do you climbing on others's man bed shamelessly? Humph! "
Athena pursued her lips to correct that this was her man from the beginning and Katherine was the one to meddle in between them. Unfortunately such heart warming words remained unhearded when Ethan commented from her side shamelessly,
" Uhh! Well, that's wrong actually. I was the who climbed into her bed today."
Katherine "...."
Katherine's Mother "..."
Athena rolled her eyes and smacked on his arms hard playfully.
Please, can this man think himself as a king for a moment?
Ethan hissed rubbing on her smacked spots and mumbled incoherently,
" What! I said the truth! "
Athena ignored the childish man beside her and stood straight proudly. Tugging the blanket around her body more tightly, she spoke domineeringly looking down at the mother and daughter's due,
" Listen to me carefully both of you! If it turns out to be true that Ethan is the biological father of your child, I, Athena Richards promise you that you won't even see my shadow around Ethan Chole ever. I promise to leave him for eternity. You won't have to play tricks to drive me away anymore."
Katherine's Mother seemed flabbergasted at Athena's domineering attitude. She didn't expect that princess of vampire clan can be so dominant. Katherine still wanted to rebuke but held back after receiving her mother's eye signal.
Looking at their downcast spirit, Athena didn't want to spend her breathing on them anymore. She grabbed Ethan's arms suddenly, pulled him back inside the room and closed off the door in a thud after telling them casually,
" Excuse us please! He kept tormenting me for a long time. We both need a long timing rest.",
Over the doorway, Katherine and her mother remained in daze for a long time untill they heard playful words from indoor.
What a badass woman!
•••• MARRIOTT CASTLE ••••
" He doesn't stop crying", a nanny commented cooing the wailing Cedric in her arms. Since his mother died, the little man never stopped crying even though he was breastfeeded by a royal midwife.
The butler who was burdened with all the leftover tasks across the kingdom sighed helplessly. He sympathied Cedric so much that every time he watched him crying, his tears threatened to fall down. After Jasmine chose to kill herself on that day, Oscar didn't come back to Marriott for once. No one knew where did he go nor did his dragons. He was so devastated over Jasmine's sudden departure that he forgot his own family.
Why wouldn't he be? That woman had left her entire family in order to accompany her in this life. Who knew that one day subconsciously he would be the reason behind her death? What if he accepted Cedric? Wouldn't she stay alive then?
The older and younger princesses peered at their crying brother from the corner of doorway. The older one, Isabella Arnaldo Dixon was ten years old who was calm and wise in personalities. The second one who appeared tough and rudy was seven years old, Jassy Arnaldo Dixon. They both were beautiful on their own way.
Isabella who seemed utterly concerned on Cedric's crying tugged on her younger sister's sleeve saying,
" Why don't we go and try to coax him? Isn't he our brother? Mamma said that he would love us and listen to us."
Jassie who happened to overheard everything about Cedric's character shook her head denying instantly,
" No! He is evil! Father had a fuss with Mamma just because of him. Mamma had left us for him only."
Isabella was a kind hearted girl since her birth. She didn't feel same way as Jassie did. In her eyes, Cedric was her baby brother who needed their love and support. Isabella persuaded her patiently,
" You don't have to hold him! Just stay by my side and watch me, okay? "
Jassie who seemed hesitant had to nod her head at the end after Isabella's constant nagging. The little ones entered into the room one after another gracefully. The maids all had their heads bowing down as they exchanged glances among each others surprisingly.
Ever since Lady Jasmine got impregnant, this two fellows maintained a far distance from her including the unborn baby who rumoured to be a demon. What made them visiting the prince so suddenly?
The maids wondered and watched Isabella to go over to the midwife who was coaxing Cedric. She gave a sweet smile and asked extending her arms,
" Give him to me! Perhaps he may stop crying after having his elder sister's warmth."
The midwife smiled faintly and passed the crying Cedric carefully in her arms. Jassie looked unhappy and didn't take a good look of Cedric's face clearly. She only seemed disturbed and wanted to walk out of the room as soon as possible.
Isabella held the baby in her arms and gave him a bright smile. Rocking back and forth lightly, she spoke adorably,
" Look! Jessie, he is so handsome like father."
Jessie didn't even bother to look and only gave her a faint smile. Just when Isabella started to pinpoint at his little features closely, she was astounded after looking through his eyes deeply. Whenever she looked deep through his eyes, she only saw lavas burning like hell as if they would come out anytime. Without being a little stunned, she didn't feel afraid and saw his eyes changing color from red volcanic to calm black one.
She chimed feeling amused,
" Look, look Jessie! His eyes change color. So unique and adorable! "
Jassie's expression changed as soon as Isabella mentioned about his powers. Jassie sneered at her coldly and spoke with disgust,
" It's because he is a demon, not a mere dragon like us. You better be stay away from him, sister. Who knows what evil aura he has! "
Isabella finally became angered and warned Jassie unhappily,
" Don't talk about him like that! He is our brother, Jassie! "
Jassie felt more and more offended by Isabella's attitude towards her. This was the first time when her elder sister spoke to her so rudely. She hardly suppressed her anger and looked down at nearly coaxed Cedric hatefully. Again, he was the reason behind their misunderstanding.
Jassie huffed, turned around and left after saying her final words,
" Then you should stay with him only rather than sticking around with me. I don't want any brother."
Isabella sighed helplessly at her retreating back and turned her attention on Cedric who seemed to fall in relax. After a few moments of rocking, he finally stopped crying and fell asleep in his arms.
The Nanny who tried to stop his crying for hours exclaimed surprisingly,
" Princess, you..you really managed to stop his crying..We have been trying for hours."
Isabella smiled elegantly and whispered back softly,
" I knew it! He knows that I am his sister after all and he is safe with me."
The Nanny smiled with tears in her eyes. Who thought that this two little children would be each others only support at this age!
••• CRIMOND HILL•••
The day started with Ayra's playful laughter who received the good news that her uncle finally became the king of Dalastia. After waking up from her sleep, her first work was to draw a picture of her uncle with throne.
After picking her drawing materials, she walked out of the villa and found a quiet place in the courtyard to moisturie her artwork. As she was too immersed in drawing, she failed to notice the sound of wings flattering behind her back.
Esme who just landed down and saw Ayra's back couldn't help but smiling widely. Ayra was her peace which would never change in this lifetime. She shouted opening her arms happily,
" Ayra!! Baby!! "
Ayra gasped opening her eyes wide and looked back at Esme astonishingly. Throwing the paper from her hands, her little figure ran over to Esme shouting out excitedly,
" Mommy!!!!!!! "
Esme grinned before pulling up the running beauty in her arms and showered her cheeks with several kisses. Ayra's scream was loud enough to notify the persons inside the villa that someone had come.
Anna and Ron both hurried outside and watched the mother-daughter due hugging each others lovingly. Ron seemed excited as he ran over to them impatiently while Anna stood on her spot.
Without saying any words, Ron embraced the two of them tightly in his arms and shouted happily,
" Serena! You are finally back to us!! "
Anna's smile quickly faded away from her face after looking at the trio. They imposed like a complete family who just got reunited after a long time.
Her breathing hitched slightly. Her right quivering hand subconsciously reached out to touch her stomach. A bitter smile formed on her pale lips as she wandered inside,
Who was she to dream of a perfect familiy?
