Chapter 47
He walked to her and she kept shifting away.
“Tell me, what are you?” he barked as his eyes changed color to cyan blue shocking her even more.
“You don’t wanna speak?” he then pointed his hand at her and immediately, Vanessa’s body rose up in mid air.
She was shocked. What the hell was this turn out of things? She only bit him. It wasn’t even that hard. How did it trigger this kind of demon in human form? Was Jack a vampire? It can’t be since they hate sunlight. Then what was he?
She saw her body flying towards Jack. She wanted to free herself but couldn’t. The moment the distance between them shortened by a lot, he grabbed her neck. This time, his eyes had become shiny gold. Even the whites of his eyes could no longer be seen.
He then spoke in a very deep voice: “Tell me, Vanessa, who are you?”
“I…” she was choking and couldn’t speak well. After a time, she managed to reply.
“Please, let me go. I’m just an ordinary, poor human. I’m Lisa’s babysitter. Please don’t kill me. I beg you….” she wanted to cry from all the choking.
“Still won’t speak, eh?” he said and they both vanished.
Meanwhile, in the dining room, Lisa who was eating happily suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest.
The spoon fell from her hand and she got down the chair. She went into a crouching position, almost about to cry.
“It hurts. It’s too painful.” she complained.
Upon recalling something, she gasped.
“Mommy is in danger? Who would try to hurt her?” she became enraged and tried to transform to her healer look but failed woefully.
“Eh? Why is it like this? Why? How can I save mommy now?” she looked confused.
An idea came and she hurried to the study that was locked from the inside.
She could still summon her wand but it seemed to be just decoration at this moment. She couldn’t use it’s power.
“Damn it!” she cursed in anger and frustration.
She used her healer magic sense to search the study area since she couldn’t enter. She was shocked that no one was there.
She headed to the hidden underground room that only a few people could access.
Reaching there, she was very tired. Her small body couldn’t take it anymore. She decided to crawl into the room and saw a shocking sight.
“Ah!” she screamed in fright.
Her dad looked like hulk in human form (i. e a giant) and was holding her mommy by her neck. She was close to death.
“Daddy stop!” she yelled.
Strength from nowhere came and she ran towards them.
“No… No… baby…” Vanessa tried to warn the little bun but it was too late.
Jack turned around and used his telekinesis on her. Lisa was very scared as she couldn’t use her powers.
“Pl… ease… stop. I’ll talk…” Vanessa struggled to speak.
He immediately let Lisa down in a rough way.
She fell to the ground and hit her head on a pillar.
Her forehead began to bleed and she fainted from dizziness and pain.
At that moment, Vanessa felt a very strong pain. It was stronger than any she ever felt whenever the little bun was in danger.
She stared at the little one bleeding and tears slid down her cheeks.
Why was it like this? She should be the one in such condition and not Lisa. That innocent kid…
At this moment, her eyes turned red and as her transformation was soon to start, the force broke her away from Jack’s grip. Her hair fluttered and gold light covered her from head to toe.
She began to transform to an upgraded temporary fairy self. Her wings were now made of real flames. Her hair was braided and gold color. Her clothes had become a black long lace gown that covered her feet and hands.
On her head appeared a black tiara with a red ruby in the middle. Her feet was bare of shoes and beads. Her skin became bronze and lips purple. She stretched her hands sideways and two swords with fiery blade appeared.
“Divya is mad!” she yelled.
The swords flew from her hands towards Jack to attack him. He started trying to elude them but would an incensed Vanessa let him go so easily?
“I can accept you choking me. But not hurting Lisa!”
“I see, you are a damn flame fairy. My bane!” Jack said as he dodged.
Unfortunately, he underestimated the swords that she was controlling and got injured in several places.
This caused his eyes to return to red.
He crouched and his bones started cracking at a fast rate.
“Ahhhhhh!” he screamed. His eyes returned to his normal human eyes. He looked at Vanessa in shock at her fairy form.
“You are a fairy? You shouldn’t have bit me, Vanessa. Ahhh, it hurts!”
Crack! Crack! Crack!
His bones continued to snap, crack and lengthen.
“Please… get her out of here, Vanessa. My wolf will hurt her. You too… leave.” he managed to say before his eyes returned to amber red.
He growled and it shook the basement.
Vanessa stared at him for one moment and flew quickly to carry Lisa bridal style.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
She then flew out of the basement and locked the door with flame chains.
“Lisa, I’m so sorry you got involved in this. Forgive me!” she whispered in tears.
Her tears fell onto Lisa’s forehead and a blue light appeared.
In no time, she opened her eyes.
“Mommy?” she called.
“MY dear. Mommy is sorry. Very sorry!” Vanessa kept apologizing.
“It’s fine! And you are a flame fairy? That’s cool!” she exclaimed and admired Vanessa’s fluttering flame wings.
“This is temporary. It will take me a long time to become a true flame fairy guardian.”
“Still, it’s awesome!” the little one praised.
“BTW, how’s my dad? Did some evil possess him?”
“Eh… speaking of that… I think… it’s better we get you to a safe place. I’ll go check on him later. Make sure you go to bed and have sweet dreams. By tomorrow, you handsome daddy will be before you.” she promised.
“Fine, I’ll try. mommy.”
“That’s my girl!” Vanessa pecked Lisa’s forehead.
After putting the litle one to sleep, Vanessa returned to the basement and removed the fire chains.
She then used her flames to blow the door open. After a minute of waiting, she flew in and saw a white wolf crouched and whimpering. The moment the wolf spotted her, it stood on guard though it was like a paper tiger at this moment.
“Um… You must be his wolf. Look, I’m not here to hurt you even though you did earliuer to me. I need to taLK to you about something.” she said as she flew closer to him but he kept retreating.
“Oh, I get it. You said I’m your bane. Why is that? What’s the dislike for Lisa?” she asked and sat on the floor some feet away from him.
Her wings disappeared but not her fairy clothing and accessories.
The white wolf relaxed and crouched again.
“You can’t talk in wolf form right?” she asked and it nodded.
“K! I guess it’s gonna be me doing the talking eh?”
The wolf looked away causing her to chuckle.
“Ok! Now. question 1. Are you the true father of Lisa? I’m asking this both of you and the other guy.”
The wolf shook its head.
“2. Is her mother a magical being?”
The wolf nodded.
“3. Was she a healer too like Lisa?”
The wolf nodded.
“4. Where is she now? I mean I heard rumors that she’s dead…”
The wolf nodded.
“Oh, she really is. Poor Lisa. So what about you being werewolf thingy. Was the other guy born with you?”
The wolf shook it head.
“You found a way to attach yourself to him?”
There was no reply.
Before she could ask another question, she heard the wolf’s bone crack.
“Oh my!” she exclaimed.
The wolf struggled to move to another place to no avail.
“If you want me to turn around, just signal.”
Vanessa turned around and her flame wings appeared again.
The bone cracking became louder and she heard the whimpers and struggles of the wolf.
After a while, she heard nothing and decided to turn around.
When she had come in earlier, she didn’t see any stripped clothes so she thought this type of werewolf shifts with clothes intact. How incorrect she was!
The moment she laid her eyes at the spot where the wolf once rested, she saw a human figure. The hair on his whole body had just finished receding except for the ones on his head.
Now what she could behold, was a certain somebody wearing his birthday suit.
“Ahhhhh!” she screamed without covering her eyes nor did she make effort to turn around. The shout was a cover up for the fact that she was sizing his side profile up.
“Wow! Look at your red, lean butt. But you have a nice figure though.” she thought while still screaming.
“Ahhhh!”
“You… turn around you pervert. What are you looking at? Turn around. Gosh!” he hugged himself as he sat on the floor.
“Well, it’s just your side profile.” she said after deciding to drop her act.
“Look! I know you are mad at me. I know that! But I’m human now and deserve some dignity too. Please, turn around Vanessa.” he begged with a red face.
