Chapter 104 - One Hundred And Four : The Night The Deities Were Asleep.
Asher winced, the room was a mess.The whole place was a mess and Daniel has to cover this expenses. Aside from his bookshelf, no other furniture was spared in the room.
But his body wasn't spared either : he could feel a lot of wood splinters stuck deeply in his skin.
Non of it mattered anyway , his body will naturally expel the splinters from his skin during its regeneration, moreover he was an undead creature so he was not at risk for an infection or inflammation. He had simply suffered his body a while for the greater good.
"Who are you? " Daniel asked this time , eyes narrowed suspiciously.
Werewolves have a great and advanced sense of smell to the extent they could pick up diverse chemical substance called pheromones released by humans and quite other creatures except vampires.
But right now his instincts were telling him this woman is dangerous.
"Meet the woman who turned your mate that way " Asher made an introduction laced with scorn while dusting off the dust on his body.
"You!" Daniel's eyes glowed with anger and took a step but groaned when he felt pain assault his senses.
"I don't like people yelling at me " She stated while causing Daniel a great pain until he was sent to his knees.
Supernaturals were strong and the only way to defeat them was to attack them first, gain the upper hand before they got close.
Nonchalantly and without blinking, she casted a spell that returned the room to normal as if nothing ever happened.
"You're welcome by the way " She told Asher, lips curled up in a cold mirthless laugh.
Asher didn't say a word, he never asked for her help anyway. Why did she destroy his avenue to make more money? If she hadn't magically repaired the place, he had already though of a plan to shamelessly milk every cent out of Daniel.
"And you were saying? " Her ladyship lifted a commanding brow and grabbed one of the reassembled chair and sat on it quite haughtily - as if she owns the place.
Daniel who just recovered from the first warning attack growled at her, seething with uncontrollable anger.
" Rule number two " She stated " I don't like people staring at me that way, it gives me the chills " Her ladyship made an effort to shudder dramatically "So unless we don't want a repeat of what happened earlier, you could be a cute little boy and sit on that chair while we have this pleasant conversation " She ordered and magically moved a chair towards him.
Daniel stared at her, there was this sweet smile on her face which made him sick in the stomach cause he knew this witch would be true to her words once disobeyed. Grudgingly and reluctantly, he took a seat. Fine, he'll listen to whatever she has to say.
Surprise flashed across her face, he gave in that easily? A smirk decorated her face, it seems this one would be much easier to use though Asher still remains her favourite.
Just as the thought crossed her mind, Asher's eyes met with hers and they seem to be declaring " Don't even think about it"
Her ladyship smiled internally, this was why she liked him. He knew exactly what was on her mind.
Asher gave her a knowing and warning look, he could already tell what she's thinking. Daniel wasn't a madman like him and would be the easiest to manipulate out of the both of them. Perhaps he indeed has the Raven clan blood running through his vein.
He simply moved his usual plushy swivel seat and plopped down on it. He and Daniel sat across from each other while her ladyship sat opposite them .
"Now we're complete, let's begin our twenty questions game " She laughed and relaxed further into her seat.
Daniel clenched his fist, he hated the fact that she was acting all high and mighty when he could easily rip her throat out with just a movement of his hand. He loathed the fact she was messing around with his mate's life.
Suppressing his anger he asked , "What did you do to Lia? "
"That's the problem here " She shook her head " We didn't do anything, just helped set in motion a prophesy that was given years ago " She answered with proud admiration in her eyes as if that was the highest achievement of her life.
Daniel frowned and even though Asher tried to hide, he shifted uneasily in his seat.
"What prophesy? " Daniel pressed on " And don't give me gibberish cause I've never heard of any prophesy neither has my ancestors since the great Purge "
"Would I seriously waste my time in coming here just to give you gibberish?" She challenged.
But Daniel shot back "Who knows? You already have a twisted sense of humor "
"Y-you - "
"Get back to the prophesy and maybe when done, you both can go at it " Asher interjected sternly.
Suddenly Asher asks instead " I'm curious about this, why is she a made hybrid? I have never come across anything like her throughout history? "
This time, her Ladyship crossed her legs. Just as expected, Asher had hit the point " It all still comes down to the prophesy " She looks them straight in the eyes and announced
"The girl is the only child born on the night the Deities were asleep "
For a while no one reacted, the silence was so intense that a pin dropped could be heard loud and clear until Asher drew a sharp breath while Daniel shot to his feet, bewildered.
"Oh my God "Asher gasped, no wonder. A lot of thoughts were running through his mind right now.
If the girl was really the child born on the night the deities were asleep, then the law of the universe doesn't apply to her. It was no longer surprising she got a wolf and vampiric side without hassle.
"This is impossible! " Daniel cried out, he was pacing restlessly around the office , his thoughts all over the place.
It was absolutely impossible, Daniel thought. All supernatural creatures were bound to one gods or goddess .
Take for example, Werewolves were bound strictly to the moon, they were watched over by Artemis, the goddess of the hunt, the wilderness, wild animals, and the Moon.
Though vampires cursed initially by Apollo, the god of the sun and twin of Artemis : never to step out into the sun.But years and technology had not only changed but reversed the curse, now they were free. But as children of the night, they still belongs to Artemis.
And yes witches belong to diverse gods and goddess, but they still increase their powers and draw strength from the moon on several occasions.
" Oh God " Daniel moaned, at this rate he would go crazy.
Unlike them, after causing such a great commotion , her ladyship was simply busy examining and blowing off invisible dusts from her perfectly manicured fingers unconcernedly.
Until a dark smile crept up her face, the worst was yet to come.
