Hell Marriage

Chapter 32: when hell let loose

Author’s POV

Connor stormed out of the dining room, not because he was angry, maybe he was partly angry, but his storming out Has to do with fear, he was damn scared, he was losing grip, he wasn’t afraid of loosing the vampire throne, because honestly, the throne is his to keep, it’s his birth right, so it doesn’t matter what happened, but he is scared of loosing Ava, it’s funny isn’t it?, He, a vampire/demon lord scared of anything?.

Nicholas, understanding that, Connor leaving the room, wasn’t really attributed to anger, he followed him, smiling his apology at Ava.

“Fine, I won’t speak about your husband anymore, I’m out of here” Nil said, disgusted. And he walked out of the room, disrupting everybody’s chance of having a peaceful breakfast.

Torn between, going between going after her angry Husband or equally angry brother, Ava sat back heavily, she understands Nil feelings, and his anger towards her, she should have at least went to see him after waking up, she sat staring gloomily at the utensils in front of her. She sighed heavily, it’s all so complicated.

Wait a minute, the last time, she spoke to Nil, he hadn’t regained his memory, and she had decided to leave out the truth for sake, is there someone perhaps whispering wrong things to him?. If there’s anyone saying the wrong things to Nil……..

Ava stood, deciding she’ll go after her brother, Connor can wait, She feared if she doesn’t go after Nil now, she might loose her brother to hatred forever.

“Whatever you choose, his highness would understand” A masculine voice said to her, placing his hand on her shoulder. She glanced up to see who had Slipped behind her without her noticing. She gasped, surprised to see Dr Walker.

“You’re here?” Ava asked in surprise.

“Go on.” He said, applying a little bit of pressure on her shoulder.

“Thank you” Ava whispered, tears clouding her eyes, she believed this kind man, would actually, calm her Connor. Ava moved to go, but Steve held her in place.

“And by the way, you look pretty, and your mark looks great on you” He whispered, winking at her, he released her arm and turned on his heels, leaving the room.

Ava fled the room, quickly as well, she got to her brother’s room and knocked gently on his door.

“Go away” Nil said, she breathed deeply. At least he had come to his room and had not ran off.

“Hi baby, it’s me” Ava said, trying to sound calm, truth is, she was shaking.

“I don’t want to see you either” He said stubbornly.

“At least hear me out…….”

“Look Cyprian, I know you’re upset with me but please, open the door?” Ava said, pleading.

“If only to see your dieing sister, just one more time?.” Ava said, pain evident in her voice.

“I’m not a child anymore, Ava, I won’t fall for that trick” He answered thickly.

“I’m really dieing to see you sweetie, if only, you’ll see……”

Nil suddenly opened the door in her face.

She would have stumbled, if not for the door frame, she had held on to.

“Fine, you can come in, you always have your way anyways.” Nil said coldly, and he went back sitting on the Chair.

“Oh baby……” Ava started to say.

“Oh stop it OK, stop pretending, you should be planning how to avenge our parents, just what are you doing?, Living with a killer?” Nil asked, glaring at Ava.

“What are you saying?, look stop saying stuffs like that, just what do you think, you’re saying?” Ava asked.

“It’s true, Ava, it’s true, he had killed his mother and brother…….”

“Just who’s feeding you all this nonsense?, mom and dad….”

“Are dead Ava, they’re dead, And no one’s feeding me any nonsense, because I remember everything now Ava, I remember how Mum and dad died.” He whispered. His eyes spitting fire.

“Do you think, she’ll be able to persuade him?” Carrissa asked.

“Why don’t we wait and see, she had come here after all, and she wouldn’t desert her benefactor, now that she has really seen me, to avoid a rift between them, Connor will grant her wishes, and when I’m out of here, I’ll cause a greater rift between them.” Alaina said, smirking.

“Evil benefactor, you had manouvered the events to your benefit, Right?, your goal was to really kill her” Carrissa said, smirking.

“Whatever, But there’s something that doesn’t fit in all of this.” Alaina said frowning suddenly, Then she stared at Carrissa and Smiled, a smile that gives you chills,

You, Carrissa Kings, doesn’t fit in the picture, and just like I take care of everything, I’ll take care of you, very soon. Alaina smiled.

*************

Ava closed the door silently and glided over to where Nil was sitting, she stood staring down at him intently, Nil looked away, finding some other things to hold his interest. She stared at him and after a few minutes, she sank to the floor, sitting at his feet and placing her head on his lap, Nil was momentarily taken back in time, Ava would always do this whenever, she’s lost or confused even when he was just a little boy and he would go to her whenever, he was confused and in trouble, they’ve always been close, through thick and thin, they’ve been there for each other, fate had separated them, then it had brought them back together, he was here, because Ava wants him here, left to her mate, he would have been thrown out long ago, he stared at her dark head and started stroking her hair. He had always loved her, and she had always loved him, he saw now that nothing’s ever gonna change that, it had always been the two of them against laws, rules and regulations, and the world, he regrets Shouting at her earlier.

“You know Nil, after Mum and dad died and we were taken as slaves, and I couldn’t find you, I felt shattered I thought a part of me had gotten lost” Ava started.

“I tried to escape baby, I wanted to search for you, but I couldn’t leave, but I didn’t believe you were dead Prian” she said, calling him, her private Nickname.

“And when I saw you, with the Kidnappers…. Scared……. I knew it was my Cyprian, even though he has lost his nerve…..”

“I loved you, even, when you weren’t here, but then everything changed, I found my mate in Connor and I accepted my fate.”

“Remember, how mum would always lecture us to accept whoever, the Moon Goddess mated us with?, she said fate would always Punish us, if we fall to accept our destiny. ” She said, a single tear, slipping down her face.

“I accepted my destiny Prian, but I never stopped loving or missing you, in time, I learned, to love Connor and I accepted him, I know it’ll be hard for you to accept him or his clan, the way I have” She paused, Wiping her tears, Nil lifted her head up and held it between his Hands. He wiped her tears with his thumb.

“Don’t Ava…..” He started to say, But Ava wasn’t finished yet.

“You might never even accept them, but I want you to always remember Baby, Just because I love him, doesn’t mean, I’ve stopped loving you,, you both have special places in my heart, and I can love you both Prian”

“Ava, but he…..”

“Promise me Cyprian, promise me, you’ll never speak ill of Connor, you’ll respect him and at least try to get to know him better?, you’ll do this for me won’t you?” Ava asked, with a sorrow filled gaze.

Nil wanted to reject what she was saying, he wanted to tell her, that he’ll never ever respect that blood thirsty man. But he agreed, for the sake of his sister’s happiness.

“OK Ava, I will” He promised her, he kissed her forehead, he drew her up, standing on his feet as he drew her up, and hugged her to himself.

“Ouch, you’re Squeezing me” Ava Screeched.

“Sorry” Nil said grinning.

“Birdy” he added, an after thoughtProperty belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Ava slapped his arm in a playful manner

“You fool” She said, and they laughed together.

“And on that note, would you like Clubbing tonight with Connor and I?” Ava asked, her Expression gleeful.
