VICTORIA'S POV
Earlier, I wasn't able to recall, but now that I have seen her up so close and so of my mories, I suddenly started to rember a few things.
I rembered how she was there when I had fallen into the lake and my adoptive parents were inside the Lakeside house preparing dinner for . It was she who had protected but had disappeared in thin air after that. I had always thought it was just my illusion.
I rembered that on my 18th birthday, I had t her on my way back to the house after groceries shopping and had lent her so money as she had appeared as a beggar in front of .
At that ti she had held my hand and a weird mark was left after she removed her hand. The mark was still there. I rembered her words from back then. She had said,
"This is my gift, for your 18th birthday."
Feeling myself becoming hotter by each second, I opened my eyes and looked at my hands which looked alien to .
I could see so strange violet light around my hands as the scorching heat started to envelop my whole existence.
"A violent light? Doesn't this ans..." She started but stopped mid-sentence before nodding her head as if coming into agreent with sothing she thought.
"Easy their child. We wouldn't want to turn those hands in other's direction." She warned before looking at with keen eyes.
"Keep your hands on the ground like that. Looks like your powers are handling their intensity, just fine by themselves." That old lady smiled before she ca near and put her hands on my shoulders, as she asked to channel all the power into the ground.
I did as she told . I pressed my hands further into the ground, as a violent ring started to form near my hands. It was growing larger and larger as I felt so of my heat leaving my body.
I could feel the ground shaking below .
I don't know what was happening. All I knew was that I was feeling scared. I don't know who I was, or specifically what I was? All I know is I had been living in a bundle of lies all my life.
I had to part away from my parents because of so shitty things that they weren't even ready to tell . The pain they had to go through. The judgent and suspicious eyes I had to face all my life because I was different. It all started piling suddenly.
All my life I had been thinking it was my fault for being different, that I was being punished. It wasn't until I ca in contact with my powers and Carla did I started feeling sane again.
"Aahhhhh.…" I shouted on top of my lungs, to stop my emotions, as I saw suddenly the violet energy spreading all around before it rose in the air making large pillars like things around , and with a large boom sound, the pillars ca near forming a cage-like thing.
"Sshhh... Don't be scared. They are just trying to protect you. From now on you'll have to act accordingly with them. They'll go to any extent to protect you, even if it ans taking soone's life." She told as she patted my head coaxing.
"At least, now I know why my daughter didn't tell you about anything. I am sorry Victoria. I am sorry. First I triggered the activation of your energy and now I had opened the gate that was stopping your powers from affecting your life." The old lady said as she squatted down close to .
"It's okay grandma. As you have said, one day or another I had to know about them. It's better sooner than later." I said as I smiled at her reassuringly.
"You are right, but I must warn you. Don't use your powers until and unless it's a life and death situation for you. Your powers will o Lu attract evil energy towards you and your loved ones, and that's the last thing you'll want on your plate since you've found your mate." She said to .
"Mate?" I asked confused.
I have been hearing this word a lot lately.
"Mate? Soulmate? Hadn't he told you yet?" My grandma asked, and then smiled as if realisation hit her.
"He hadn't told anything. Is there sothing I should know of?" I asked though I knew she won't tell anything by the knowing smile she was giving .
"All I can say is that the boy likes you. What are your feelings for him? As your grandmother, I think I have the right to know." She said, using the grandma card so that I can't deny anymore.
"I like him a lot. And about him liking . I know about that. I an I have a gist of it. But I can't say anything about it. To be honest, I am afraid of relationships. First, my real mom dad had to leave , then my friends left thinking I am weird, them my parents died. I can't bear to lose more people than I already have." I said not at all hiding my true feelings.
It's been a long ti since I have been lying to myself, to Alexander and more importantly to our friendship. It's good to tell your real feelings to soone for a change.
"I understand dear, but mark my words, he ain't going to leave you for your weirdness, and nor he will die easily. Regarding leaving you, if he wishes to don't die early, he won't do that either. His wolf won't allow." She said while murmuring the last part, that I could catch.
"I don't know. I think I am just not ready. Besides, am I not the person who wasn't even supposed to be born? I don't want to implicate on anyone." I smiled sadly.
I looked at the guy who was still standing dazed, knowing this has to be my grandma's doing.
Sighing loudly I looked at my hands that had created the pillar earlier before waving them in the air while thinking that I am calm now. And as expected, all the pillars disappeared.
"You are doing great. Rember my words. No use of power. Don't show them, even to Alexander. There will be a right ti for everything. Also, open your heart, my baby. There's a world greater than the one you have created in your mind. I will suggest you give the boy a chance. You won't be disappointed, I am sure of it." My grandmother said as she flicked her fingers and Alexander imdiately ca to my side.
"Look, she is a human. Let's talk alone." He said as he stood in front of as if protecting .
I wanted to laugh at his gesture but thought against it.
Seeing how Azrael nodded at , I went ahead of leaving the party, knowing it was Alexander's turn to hear her talk.
But, wait a minute! Why would my witch Grandma want to talk to a human-like Alexander?
Is it because I said, I liked the guy?
Huh! I just hope she doesn't reprimand him too much.
