Mom later had to rest so I left the room in search of dad, Elvis, and Luke in the mansion. When I t them, dad and Elvis had a frown on their face while Luke was looking outside the window. Luke had told Elvis about my visions and it wasn’t a good sign. According to what Elvis said they weren’t just hallucination visions but that my previous life dad was trying to get in touch with . I didn’t like it one bit.
"But out of all the years why is he trying to get in touch with Lilly now?" Dad asked Elvis who was holding a cup of tea in his hand.
"Because he couldn’t get in touch with her. Ace being the half dium gave a way to her father, Alos," Elvis said, "Ace had died long back before Luke killed him completely and I think Alos is in a form where he can only give her visions but not physically touch her for now as Luke’s there with her. He is trying to resurrect his dead wife."
"How does Luke help in the anti-Alos thing?" I asked and Elvis gave a questioning look to Luke.
"You haven’t told her-"
"I just began with the story, she’ll know it by end of the day," Luke answered seriously and turned to look at . His eyes were darker than usual and it seed he was thinking about sothing, "We should be leaving to the human dinsion now, the sooner I finish work there the faster we go back ho."
We walked out of the room and passed through the long corridor that connected the main hall. Luke was walking next to and gave a smile when I glanced at him. There were servants cleaning while my eye caught sight of the two maids I had seen during my last ti here. One of them said sothing to the other with a disgusted look. Everything was alright for a second until the next second, Luke had caught hold of the maid by her neck against the wall who had spoken.
"I dare you to repeat what you said just now," he threatened her as she struggled, "I’m in a really foul mood right now and you just pushed the button there."
"Luke! Let her go," Elvis said as he went to where Luke was.
"This one keeps testing but this ti she crossed the line," Luke said as his nails dug into her skin and I saw her choke.
"Your scaring Lilly too, Luke. I’ll handle her," Elvis spoke softly and Luke released her but not before threatening her with a smile that was scary,
"If you were in my kingdom I would have burnt you alive for uttering those words, count yourself lucky," he said before walking out of the mansion.
"Now, I’m more worried," dad muttered. Elvis said sothing to the maid and sent her inside, "If I didn’t know him well I wouldn’t be sending you with him right now," he sighed.
"She’ll be fine," Elvis said keeping his hand on dad’s shoulder, "We all know hurting Lilly is the last thing he would think of doing because he cares for her more than what he shows."
I didn’t know how they could be so sure about I being with Luke. It wasn’t like soone read his mind or dissected it to know what his thoughts were. On the way he was quiet and so was I. I wasn’t sure if he was still angry or was thinking sothing deep. I wondered what the maid might have said to tick him off. I began playing with the radio tuner, changing channels every few minutes.
"I’m sorry," I turned to him, my brows furrowed in question. His eyes were on the road as he spoke, "I shouldn’t have lost my cool but it wasn’t my fault. Last ti she didn’t get my point," he justified himself like a kid.
"That doesn’t an you snap her neck," I said looking at him and he turned to face , eting my eyes.
"I won’t take a single insult from anyone when it cos to you," he said making feel warm with his words and I looked down at my fingers.
"Just don’t kill anyone, okay?" I asked him, raising my eyes and saw a quick grin grace his lips.
"I’ll try," he replied with a bright mood. Talk about a mood switch.
"You were supposed to continue with the story," I reminded him as he humd a tune.
"You weren’t a beauty at your ti but you definitely stole many hearts including mine with the way you were, your kind and pure nature was sothing no one possessed. But your heart was stolen by soone else," he drove the car as he revealed the story. I was more than surprised to hear when he said I had a love interest in my previous life, "It was a relationship that was kept secret until the day your father killed you because you were engaged to a man your family had chosen but fell in love with soone who your family hadn’t chosen for you. Your mother t with an accident one day when she was on her way ho and died. Your father Alos had tricked you and had used magic on both your mother and you so that your soul could revive her back. It was the kind of magic that needed the sa blood relation to perform it."
We were crossing through the supernatural dinsion to the human dinsion as we went through a strange layer like atmosphere through the forest.
"How could my soul help my mother revive? Isn’t it like soul transfer and I would be there?" I asked him.
"No, it isn’t. When you transfer the soul, it’s more like rebooting your mory to a restart button," he answered and continued, "By the ti your love got to know about it you were already dead. When your father tried swapping the souls he intervened which turned to quite a battle. In the anti your soul was in space and loose, it drifted to which no one knew until your father and Ellen adopted you."
"Oh," was the only thing I could say after hearing it. He stopped the car when we ca across a store. He went to get a few items while I stayed in the car quietly until my phone rang. It was dad.
"Hey, dad."
"Lilly, by any chance if you are going to our ho can you pick the files that are in my closet? And yeah do ask Mrs. Bank to water the plants right. Your mother is more worried about the plants than her health," he said making both of us laugh.
"Sure, will do dad," I replied.
"Did you reach the human world?" he asked from the other end of the phone.
"Yes, just now. I’m waiting for Luke to co back from the store, he went to get a few stuff," I said as I looked towards the store and then rembered sothing, "Dad do you know about my previous life?"
"Yeah, honey. Why?"
"Who was my love interest?" I asked him curiously as I had forgotten to ask Luke the persons na.
"It was him," I heard dad say.
"Him who?" I asked him not getting whom he was referring to.
"Lucian Knight," was dad’s reply.
