Chapter 244 Green Portal
Jack listened to Vieva and after taking a deep breath he moved towards the sofa and sat down on it.
Vieva placed a wine glass in front of him and was about to pour some wine into it.
"I am not in the mood to drink," Jack said as he looked her in the eyes. He didn't wanna drink anymore.
Vieva listened to him and turned silent for a moment and only after a few seconds she sighed and then both the glasses and the wine bottle disappeared from the place.
"If you don't wanna drink then I will not drink too." She said and sat down in front of him.
Jack stayed silent at her words.
"There is something that I need you to do for me," Vieva said as a reluctant expression appeared on her face. It was as if she didn't wanna tell Jack about this but she had to.
Jack looked at her expression and turned solemn. "What's troubling you so much?" He asked with his brows raised.
"Let me tell you something, I don't know if you know about this or not, but I am a witch, a creature of Darkness," Vieva said with a sigh.
"A witch?" Jack raised his brows.
"Yes, my ancestors were all witches and we were the ones protecting this world from the other dimensions," Vieva said and waved her hands and an ethereal image of the earth formed on the table in front of them.
Jack looked at the ethereal image with a serious expression.
"This is our earth, and these are all the portals to the other dimensions." She moved her hand and the earth revolved and soon enough many different red dots appeared around the earth.
The dots were small but were numerous. Jack could tell that there were more than a hundred portals around the earth.
"So all these portals connect to different dimensions?" Jack asked as he looked at Vieva.
She looked at him and nodded. "Yes, most of these portals are closed tightly and are impossible to cross. However, some had conditions to open them. Like the power of ring portal." She murmured and clenched her teeth.
Soon enough about ninety per cent of the red dots turned green and ten per cent remained red.
"The green portals are the ones that are impossible to be opened by anyone. And the remaining red ones have conditions to open them." She explained.
Jack furrowed his brows at her words. "So what's the problem here?" He asked with a slightly impatient expression on his face.
Vieva listened to him and gulped her saliva. She then moved her finger and zoomed on one of the green portals. "Can you see this green portal in Paris?" She asked.
"Yes, it's a green one," Jack said.
"It was somehow opened a few days ago," Vieva said as an angry expression appeared on her face.
"Opened? How? You said that they were impossible to open." Jack said with a worried expression on his face.
"That's the reason I called you here," Vieva said with a complicated expression on her face.
A frown appeared on Jack's face. "How can I help you?" He asked.
Vieva gulped her saliva and then took in a deep breath. "I think it's the dragons that opened the portal." She murmured.
"Dragons?"
"Yes, they are also from another dimension, they are powerful and they are a threat to this earth." Vieva looked away. "I think they are planning something devious in that other dimension. I want you to go there and check what they are doing." Vieva said.
Jack narrowed his eyes at her words. "So you want me to go there with you?" Jack raised his brows.
He didn't know why she wanted him to tag along, he was not as powerful as her and would only become a burden in her way.
"No, you are going there alone. I can't go with you." Vieva said as a depressed expression appeared on her face.
"Alone?" A frown appeared on his face.
"I didn't want you to do it, but you are the only hope left, if you don't do it, then it can threaten not only us but the whole earth," Vieva said and let out a sigh of defeat.
"Why can't you go there?" Jack asked, he was confused as to why she didn't wanna go along with him.
He was sure that Vieva would never send him alone to a dangerous place, if there was no concrete reason.
He could see the four hearts over her head and could tell that she loved him.
Vieva gritted her teeth and punched the table in front of her. It was clear that she was angry.
"It's because the dimension doesn't allow creatures of darkness to pass through the portal. It's the condition for one to pass through." She said in a displeased tone.
Jack turned silent at her words. Now he understood why she was asking for his help, the situation was desperate and he was the only one who could help her.
After contemplating for a minute or two, Jack sighed and stood up. "I don't think I will be able to help you." He said.
When Vieva heard his words a frown appeared on her face. "Why?" She also stood up from the sofa and moved towards him.
"I don't think there is an end to things like these. I don't wanna die somewhere abandoned." He let out another sigh. "I would be happy if I lived the rest of my life with my girls." He looked into her eyes again. "Even if it's a short one."
He has given up on this constant fighting, if the earth was about to be destroyed then he didn't care, he wanna take the rest of his life and spend it with his girls.
He didn't wanna be on the constant edge. The last time he almost died when he was in the other dimension. And the time when Firn attacked him and Elma then he would have died or been tortured to death if not for Nicole.
Vieva came near him and held his hand. She looked into his eyes for a few moments and then let out a sigh. She then leaned in and kissed him on the lips. "OK, if that's what you want then I won't force you." She said and hugged him.
"I want to tell you something." She murmured in his ears.
"Tell me." Jack grabbed both of her shoulders and looked into her eyes.
"You are the first man that has melted my heart in centuries. I never thought that I would ever fall in love with someone." Her voice was choked.
Jack felt her warmth and stayed silent for a moment and then a smile formed on his face. "I love you too." He said. "I think you should stop running too and spend the rest of your life peacefully with me." He said again.
Vieva listened to his words and then looked down, she then moved away from him, "I am sorry. I must maintain a balance in this world." She said and finally, tears formed in her eyes.
"It's not like I don't wanna spend time with you, it's just I can't." She sighed.
"It's ok." Jack placed a hand on her shoulder. "You can do anything you want, but if you ever feel tired or lonely, you can come to me without any worries."
"Thanks." Vieva wiped her tears, she never thought that she would ever get so emotional in her life, however, Jack changed her completely.
Jack kissed her again and moved away. "Ok, I should be going now." He said and moved away.
"Wait." Vieva looked at him and a slight blush formed on her face.
"What happened?" Jack asked with his brows raised, he wondered why she had stopped him.
"I wanna do it with you." She said suddenly.
Jack narrowed his eyes at her words. "Do what?" He was confused.
Vieva looked away at his words and her face turned even more red.
"Do that." She murmured.
Jack looked at the expression on her face and then realization dawned on him suddenly and a smile formed on his face.
"Really?" He asked with a teasing smile on his face.
Vieva stayed silent at his words and grabbing his hand she pulled him up to the second floor of the mansion, and both of them entered a room.
"You sit there, I will be back in a minute." She murmured and quickly ran to the bathroom and closed the door tightly.
Jack looked at her and a warm smile formed on his face, to think that the cold Vieva would ever act this way. 'I never thought that she could act shy.' He sighed and waited for her to come back.
And soon enough the bathroom door opened and Vieva stepped out, she was wearing a white bathrobe and her hair and body were wet.
Jack could tell that she had just taken a shower.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." She said with a serious expression.
Jack looked at her and smiled. "Don't worry about it." He looked at her up to down, she was looking sensual. "You really wanna do this?"
"Yes." Vieva nodded.
