Chapter 180: My pure thoughts
Alaric left the room, leaving Magnus and Izaak behind. He wished to be alone for so ti.
"Alaric is indeed a fool. He agreed to marry Scarlet when he doesn’t even like her. His mind is filled with Ember. Father never forced any of us for the marriage, but to Alaric he gave such an offer, which he couldn’t refuse," Izaak complained, letting out his frustration. He picked up the wine cup and chugged it down in an instant.
"Because Brother Alaric will never forget Ember if he stays unmarried. Father found it the best opportunity to bring Alaric out of one-sided love," Magnus shared his father’s thoughts with Izaak.
"Love isn’t forced," Izaak said.
"I know. But Brother Alaric needs a force marriage according to Father. If he can live happily, then I have no problem. Ember never even liked our brother as a friend that ca to him with such a request," Magnus said, feeling angry. "She was aware that Brother Alaric would sacrifice himself for her happiness," he said with a frown on his forehead.
Izaak couldn’t agree less to his statent. "What if there was no way? Alaric would have taken that curse on him. And I am sure he would not even have regretted about it," he murmured.
"That’s how Brother Alaric is," Magnus remarked, "A good-hearted vampire."
"Which is hard to find," Izaak stated.
"Yes." Magnus finished the wine and set the cup on the table before him. "I am relieved that Brother Alaric will stay safe now. I shall take my leave now. Alora must be waiting for ." He rose to his feet and pivoted on his boots.
"I have to tell you sothing," Izaak pronounced.
Magnus slightly turned to glance at him. "What is it?" His curiosity piqued.
"Do you rember the human who hid behind
in that slave market?" Izaak asked.
"Hmm. Why? What happened?" Magnus was puzzled seeing Izaak was talking about a human.
"I think she holds my fate," Izaak affird. "I saw a vision of her and ," he added.
Magnus ended up smiling. "That’s great, Brother! I hope you find your happiness too." In these past two months, their differences with each other had ended too thanks to Alora.
"Won’t you ask
what I’ve seen? Or did you already read those thoughts in my mind?" Izaak inquired.
"I didn’t read your mind. I only do that in so special circumstances, Brother Izaak," Magnus stated. "And I’m not truly interested in knowing what you’ve seen. I feel that must be a joyful vision for you because you look happy sharing all this with ," he asserted.
"Yes, I do feel joyous. I have no idea why?" Izaak chuckled.
Magnus was unable to believe that Izaak wanted to approach a human. He was so against it once. Alora’s company and friendship had truly changed his brother.
"I want to be happy this ti, Magnus. I hope what I saw and what I feel, won’t betray
this ti," Izaak proclaid with a hopeful gaze.
"Oh, you will." Magnus genuinely wanted Izaak to live happily with his other half.
"Thank you for listening to ," Izaak stated and told him he should leave.
Magnus humd and left for his in-laws house.
