Chapter 537: I Am Sorry!
"You are going to train all night with your aunt Ana until you will be able to perform teleportation magic well." Hazel announced when the face of Lucy crumbled.
While her brother has inherited more of the power of witches, she was more of a vampire. Running, hunting and listening were his keen points but when it comes to performing spells, they just did not work! And her mother knew that well, yet she had asked her to hone such a strong spell.
She looked at her father for help but before Rafael could speak, the stern eyes of Hazel stopped him and he sighed.
"Hazel!"
"She needs to grow up, Rafael." Hazel replied as she gave a stern glance to Lucy who cowered and took a step back.
"Alright, I will make sure that you learn it quickly since I want to go back to my husband at night." Ana winked at her but it only made Lucy cringe.
Her aunt and uncle did not let go of a single chance to show their love to each other. She wonders how a white witch that believed to have gotten blessings from the god was so madly in love with a demon who had come from the depths of hell.
Hell! Was that place hell? She wondered if she would ask Declan, would he be able to tell her about the place she often saw in her dreams. Lucy was afraid of the place, but she wanted to know more about the girl sitting on the throne.
"Then you can ask uncle Declan to come with us to the training." Lucy suggested surprising everyone.
Even Oliver passes him a look as if asking what is cooking in your mind this time?
Everyone knew that Lucy was not close to them. She was not close to anyone as if she did not treat them as their family. She only likes to coop up in her room or spend time with vampires.
Witches and demons were never her cup of tea and everyone had given up after trying many times.
"You want me to come to your training ground?" asked Declan, feeling incredulous when Lucy nodded her head again.
"We can have dinner together later. I will treat you to your favorite food." her smile blinded all of them for a second when Ana looked towards Hazel who seemed shocked herself.
"Alright, then I will keep your promise." Declan chuckled as he stood up holding the hands of his seven years old daughter Olivia whom he still treats like a baby. "Then I will see you in the evening."
Ana hugged Hazel while leaving and whispered in her ears, "do not worry, I will make sure that she did not play a foolish trick. And Declan will not mind her jokes." Hazel just smiled as she let go and soon the family of Ana left the room.
Mikhael looked at her sister with her bright eyes when she turned to leave.
"Sister, since you have training in the evening. Would you like to play with me for the meantime?" she shook her head as she flickered the head of her brother who had come closer to hug her.
"Lucy! We are not done yet." Hazel stopped the young girl from leaving the room, "Mikhail, why don't you go with your cousin Olivia, she had recently brought a new pet.'' Pet! That word brightens the eyes of Mikhail who nodded his head and closed his eyes. In the next second, he was gone.
Lucy blinked her eyes and looked around. Her brother already knew teleportation skills! That meant, he was…
"He wanted to help you by telling you the exact trick yet you behaved rudely Lucy!" Lucy closed her eyes. She knew that it was going to take longer than she had expected.
"You should pay more attention to the people around you. Why are you so cold to Mikhael? He only wants to spend time with his sister." asked Hazel as she walked closer when Lucy sighed.
"I am not cold to his mother. He is just too bright and I am. I prefer silence. Oliver, Olivia and Mikhael, I love them. But they are just too.. Can I go to my room and rest since I have a long evening awaiting for me.
I am hungry too." Lucy covered her abdomen as she looked at Hazel who narrowed her eyes but her stomach grumbled at the same moment.
"Alright go! But remember.."
"To be kind to aunt Ana and uncle Declan. I know, I will not be cold." because I was never cold in the first place. She ran out of the room before her mother could give her another lecture on how to behave.
Lucy could not understand how they were all so chattering and lovey dovey with each other. She just feels cringey at the thought of it and prefers silence over their incessant chatter.
Hazel sighed and her eyes dimmed when the door closed.
"If only you knew the value of all this Lucy. your sister is missing all of this love for one mistake." she whispered as a tear fell from her eyes when Stefan came out of thin air and looked at her with pity.
"You are still not over it. Fifteen years had passed Hazel! And your daughter is living well. You are behaving like she was a pitiful being when she was one of the strongest beings in the three realms. I am sure if you have a fight, she is going to win against you." he boosted with awe in his eyes when her eyes lit up and she looked at him with hope.
"I want to meet her, Stefan. It had been so many years! For once, i want to go and see her with my own eyes.'' She was dying to hug her daughter once when Stefan shook his head.
"You know your father would never let you meet her. And what will you even say to the girl.. That you are sorry you have to give up on her? It will only hurt her, Hazel. It is better that she did not know about your existence."
