28、MOMENT OF TRUTH

Book:VIMDRAOLF Published:2024-5-1

Like a sixth sense, Vimdraolf felt it, his gold eyes spark, and immediately without questioning the reason for the feeling, he runs back to the direction he left Esmeralda.
He was right, all he saw were bubble and no sign of his mate in the surface. Without thinking twice, he divers right into the water, raising her out.
Her chest was not moving, showing signs that she was not breathing. Vimdraolf put pressure on her chest down trying push out the water she has consumed out of her throat.
Esmeralda coughed out water opening her eyes, after some seconds, and the first thing she sees are you gold cold eyes of Vimdraolf. She screeched out of fear bursting within, smacking their heads together in the process.
Esmeralda held the part of her head that had collided with Vimdraolf own. She runs out of his embrace ducking around a corner, behind a tree. She could not control her labored breathing, rapid pulse and the trickle sweat.
She reck of fear, even Vimdraolf can testify to that. Being under him made her feel like a little mouse. How can she be so close to a man she should fear, the same man responsible for Luna’s death.
Even in the freezing weather and wet clothes making it worse, Esmeralda refused to come out of her suppose hiding.
Vimdraolf sat on the sand, giving her all the time of the world. When her body can not take it anymore, she would come out of hiding.
With shaky legs and clenched teeth, she jumped out of her hiding slowly approaching the man she wants nothing to do it.
Esmeralda huffed out annoyance, hand in fist at the thought of what she is about to do.
Vimdraolf could not hid his growing smirk. The goddess cursed him with one of a kind mate.
I’m Cold Take Me Back Now!!!
Esmeralda gaped when Vimdraolf yank her body to him. The warmth his body provided again, shut her reasoning.
Vimdraolf chuckled darkly at the advantage the mate bond gave him over her.
Esmeralda felt his hot breath on her skin as he replied her question.
Your Wish Is My Command
Esmeralda nuzzled into him more trying to find relief from the cold. Just like he brought her here, he carried her back to the castle.
Vimdraolf stall in returning the child to the mother. Rosa held her hand out for half a minute waiting for Vimdraolf to hand over her child back. He returned back to his room after forcefully returning the girl, he lay on the bed with her been the last thing on his mind as he smile himself to sleep.
Mother why me?
Esmeralda whine again, something she has been doing since she woke up this morning. Her weak legs crawls to the ground, she holds her hair backwards vomiting blood again.
Your Body Is Rejecting Vampire Blood.
The mother and daughter turn to the direction of the door.
She Is Completely Human, Leave My Family Alone Vampire.
The man of the house is here, how wonderful, no one else is in the best position to answer the question. Or I should rather ask your whore of a wife.
Please We Mean No Disrespect Vampire, We would be leaving. Come Esmeralda, let’s go into the castle. Mateo help me lift her.
Mateo reluctantly tearing his gaze from Blake, he did as his wife wished. He lift his daughter and takes her into the castle.
Keep hiding Mateo, I will get my answer soon enough.
Mateo turns a deaf ear to Blake words and proceed entering the castle.
Mother Father, he has a point. Who Am I ?
You told me days ago that Vampire Werewolves Elfs and Fairy exist and they are not just in the story you told me as a kid.
Esmeralda pause for a second thinking.
The Angel and the wolf. That’s it mother. All this while, you narrated my life to me in form of that story. I’m the angel, and that monster is the wolf? How could you mother? How could you hide that part of my life from me?
ANSWER ME MOTHER?
Father won’t you say something? Do you also know anything about this? What I’m i even saying, how could you not know. You both are accomplice how I’m I even sure you are even my mother? maybe the Vampire was right, you are a whore.
The slap rang, deafening Esmeralda for a split second. She holds the part of her face that sting, looking at the woman she called mother with a dreadful eyes.
She dashes out of the room with no destination in mind, all she wanted to do was leave their presence. How can they not understand what she is going through? Do they really even care about her? No one told her her life would be a rollercoaster this pass few days.
Do they expect her to be happy knowing she drank blood, might possibly be a vampire or maybe worse, and don’t get her started with the beast that is suppose to be her soul mate.
You know when I’m sad I eat sugar cane, although father says too much sugar is not good for my body, but I don’t care, he is not around anymore so what’s the point of listening to him.
Esmeralda was at first shock thinking she was the only living soul there, only to see a human child come out of nowhere.
I’m Seline, what is your name?
I’m Esmeralda
Esmeralda reluctantly agree to shake the nothing less than a ten year old child. You can’t blame her, not everyone now in human skin are humans.
Don’t worry Esmeralda, I don’t bite. I’m just an orphan going where the wind takes me.
That word struck Esmeralda, here is a child without the love and care of a parent, and she just insulted her mother all for the word of a strange vampire. She has never felt bad like she do now, and regrets her action even more
