Chapter-30

"Alex, I am serious this time. Let go of me, I need to use the washroom." Victoria said for the umpteenth time, and Alexander just shook his head in response. ​​

It has been two hours since they sorted out their reasons, and have been cuddling on the bed ever since with Alexander hugging her close to himself as if wanting to merge their bodies.

"Nope. Not going to let you go." Alexander said, hugging her even more tightly to himself.

"Alexander, I need to use the washroom, please? I will pee my dress if I don't go now." Victoria said, bringing her legs closer to each other, trying her best to control her pee.

"Aren't you a witch? Click your fingers and drain your pee out of your body."

Alexander said as if that was the most normal thing to say, making Victoria roll her eyes.

"If you don't let me go now, I won't come back easily." Victoria threatened, and this had Alexander immediately leave her body as he stood and almost pushed her inside the washroom.

"Alexander, there is something else we need to talk about," Victoria said while relieving herself.

"Whatever it is, we will talk once you come back here in the bed, in my arms, or under me. Both ways are okay for me." Alexander flirted, making her blush a deep scarlet.

Though Victoria has done the deed with Alexander and was not a virgin anymore, it happened only once and that to be around two years back, thus, it almost felt like she was a virgin again and with Alexander making remarks like these, she was not sure how long will Alexander be able to wait this time before he devours her.

Though she acted nonchalant about it, doesn't mean she didn't notice the large bulge in his pants or something poking her stomach or lower back since they had started cuddling earlier.

Not that she minded anyways.

Settling between his widespread legs and opened arms again as she leaned her head on his chest, she started drawing circles around his chest before she started,

"We need to keep this a secret. This. Me coming back or that we are a thing again." Victoria said.

Alexander looked at her with a scowl but didn't say anything nonetheless, wanting her to finish before he gives his input.

"I know we met after a long time. And the desire to remain together all the time is as strong as yours, but I don't know why, it feels like something is not right. I mean there must be more to the picture than it's meeting the eyes.

I sure know that my grandfather Christopher is a big threat to my existence and that he will kill me the instant he sees me, but it feels like there is some hidden enemy around us and I want him/ her to come out." Victoria finished.

"What do you mean? Do you suspect that apart from Christopher, a.k.a your grandpa, because of whom that ugly witch had come into view along with that sacrifice spell, there is someone else who wants to hurt our relationship?" Alexander asked, nuzzling his face in the crook of her neck.

"I am serious here Alexander, stop doing that. It's tickling." Victoria said before starting again,

"I do believe in it. First, that sacrifice spell which my witch uncle said he took from someone called Daniel. Second, you falling down the stairs and almost dying but being hurt enough to be saved, as if someone knew that the mate bond will be used. Third, Jasmine's constant disapproval to let me come into power, saying that someone doesn't want it to happen, and fourth, your secretary Melissa. She is too suspicious." Victoria said.

"Now that you say it like that, it's indeed suspicious that we are burdened with so many hardships. I mean, it's not like we are shooting some kind of soap opera where all the villains in the world want my girl, is it?" Alexander joked, making Victoria roll her eyes before she slapped Alexander's chest playfully.

"On a serious note, Victoria. If you think this Melissa girl is a problem, I'll kick her out this instant. We don't need more problems on our plate." Alexander said while nibbling on her skin, making her moan slightly.

"We are having a serious discussion here, Xander." Victoria moaned again when she felt his hot kisses on her jawbone.

"And I am very serious about it." Alexander smiled, bringing her closer to himself.

Sighing loudly, knowing he was just playing with her, Victoria took his face in her hand before she swapped their positions and sat on top of him.

"We are not kicking her out. The most we will do is increase our observation of her. Which I am sure Jasmine will do very perfectly." She said before she bent and captured his lips hungrily.

"You have no idea, how long I've waited for you and to do this," Victoria said in between her kiss.

"Does that mean, I am going to be devoured and deflowered tonight?" Alexander joked, placing his hands on her lower waist, bringing her infinitely closer to himself.

"You are not a virgin, Alexander. I made sure of it two years ago." Victoria smirked before continuing,

"That, I am not sure about. Because right now you need to deal with Daniel, who is about to enter the mansion." Victoria smiled in the kiss, making him groan with frustration.

"He is the biggest turn off of our relationship, I am telling you. I don't even understand why does he stick to you like that?" Alexander said more like whined in her neck, making her giggle.

"Because he is my brother. Well, not exactly my brother. He is just someone who is made to protect me from the moment of his birth, but he doesn't know of it, and I don't want to tell him the truth and hurt him either." Victoria said.

She knows that when he'll come to know that he is not the son of Nelson and Martha but the real son of Victoria's adoptive parents, who had given their child to Christopher that night so that they could protect Victoria, he will be devastated.

He will be torn and broken when he will come to know that he was not even supposed to be alive till now.

That his death would've cleared most of the problems that Victoria was facing now.

That night when Victoria was born, Daniel was also born. And to protect the hybrid kid from Christopher's gaze, the servants of Nelson and Martha, the Gibbersons, had given their child Daniel to them and taken Victoria away so that she could be hidden.

When Daniel was given to Christopher so that he could kill the hybrid child and end the prophecy then and there, Daniel did something that no one expected him to do.

He kicked Christopher in the face and Christopher immediately understood that he wasn't the hybrid.

The hybrid child is weak by birth and it shouldn't have even opened his eyes till two weeks let alone kick Christopher.

That day when everyone thought Christopher killed that kid and that he was no more after the hybrid, they were so wrong about it.

However, Azrael, Christopher's wife, came to know about the truth and asked him to give the son back to Nelson and Martha, to which Christopher agreed, thinking no hybrid child was born.

"Wow! That's a lot to take in." Alexander said sitting straight now.

"I know. Everything started with my birth. Honestly, sometimes I think if grandpa had killed me that day only, then none of this would've happened." Victoria said as her eyes teared by the thoughts of how much she had made people near her suffer.

She has gone through pain, but that's all related to her, however, seeing people that care about her and love her, hurting like that, she just can't bear with it anymore.

"Victoria, you said those words today, but never again say those words. Never ever again. You have no idea what a blessing you are to me and my people.

You are a strong girl, you are my queen and a very strong queen at that. You know how to care for people and sacrifices yourself for others. It's not something that everyone can do, okay?

You are beautiful and capable.

What is our fate, I don't know of it myself, but one thing I know for sure and that is I don't think I will be able to live without you. And if something happens to you, always remember that you'll have a blood of a king on your hand." Alexander said jokingly, however, her words pierced through Victoria, who immediately hugged him.

"I am sorry for saying or even thinking like that. Nothing will happen to us. I promise." Victoria said, and Alexandra smiled in her neck before kissing her again.

"I know we have to pretend like there's nothing in between us. But what if I feel like hugging you and kissing you? What will I do?" Alexander asked with squinted brows.

"Well, Mr King, we are having a loving, explicitly exotic, romantic, suspicious and hidden affair then," Victoria said, making Alexander lift her in the air as she squealed in surprise.

"I love you too damn much!" Alexander said in between his laugh.

"The feelings are mutual, Xander. They are mutual." Victoria smiled, feeling at home again.
