PART FOUR

After their conversation, Vanadetta and Dominic became closer, especially Dominic. It seemed that their conversation made Vanadetta's feelings that initially felt strange now slowly began to accept Dominic's presence. Although only a little, but Vanadetta believed her feelings for Dominic. And also Moongodes already destined himself with Dominic, so there's nothing to be afraid of, at least now, Vanadetta thought to himself.

"Dominic ..." Called Vanadetta, who had been watching Dominic talk to Sam, the Beta.

"Yes, Mate ...", replied Dominic who walked towards him after finishing talking with Sam. But Vanadetta didn't see where Sam was going, and the door didn't open at all.

"Where did Sam go? Why didn't I see him open the door ...? Asked Vanadetta when Dominic was near him. Dominic, who was asked by his mate, rolled his eyes.

"Sam is a magician mate, so don't be surprised if you see him appear and disappear suddenly ..."

"Oh.oke ... So what were you talking about earlier? I saw you guys talking very seriously just now ...?"

Dominic stroked Vanadetta's face.

"Nothing serious mate, just talk of pack safety and heavy guarding for the fog forest ..." he explained.

"Forest of Fog? Vanadetta asked.

"Yes mate. The fog forest is a forest where I first found you and the forest is also inhabited by vampires, witches and rogues. But the problem here is the disappearance of the vampires who also inhabit the forest. slaughtered by rogues and black magicians. But when checked there, the place is clean, like no massacre So I ordered Sam to keep monitoring.

"Okay then. Oh yes Dominic, I have something to say to you ...."

"What's up mate, say ..." Actually Vanadetta hesitated to say it, but if it can't be said - Dominic or James could be suspicious of him.

"If a red moon appears, I want you to lock me up in a dark room without light and locked from the position of guards about four people, and also I want you to let Xorn in my room-

"Xorn? Why? Do you know Xorn? How can ...?"

interrupted Dominic Vanadetta thought that Dominic would ask questions like that. His possessive instincts came into play.

"Ask one by one Dom, I'm confused how to answer ..." Dominic raised his eyebrows.

"Dom? I like that call. Vanadetta blushed.

"Stop it Dom, don't look at me like that ..." Dominic chuckled. Dominic gently rubbed the face of his mate who was very beautiful according to him.

"Keep calling me like that, I like it and I hope we can be like this forever. Even though we just met for some reason I feel that we've met before" explained Dominic.

"Okay, if that's what you want Dom. So if I call you Dom, will you call me Vana? I think Vanadetta is too long. Think of it as a call for both of us ..." Dominic pretended like he was thinking.

"If my mate asked him directly, there's no way I would refuse right ...? OK, I think the discussion about nicknames is over. Now can you explain to me, mate, how do you know Xorn ...? Vana chuckled.

"Apparently you are very curious Dom. Can you call Xorn here ..? I will explain directly ..." Okay, I will call Xorn here and Mate, today you can get out of the health room and later you will sleep in my room, and of course with me as a substitute for your bolster ... " Vana could only hold back a smile.

"Okay Dom, I will grant your wish, so call Xorn now .."

"Hold on, mate, Xorn is on his way here."

Not long after, Door was knocked from outside. Dominic ..

"Come in ..." said Dominic It didn't take long before the door opened and Xorn immediately entered the room.

"Do you call me Alpha ...?" asked Xorn.

"That's right, actually my Mate wants to meet you ..." Xorn shifted his gaze which previously looked at Dominic to now diverted to Vanadetta.

"What is the Queen calling me? Is there anything I should do Queen ...? Dominic who heard Xorn's words just now was even more astonished. What Vanadetta originally wanted to meet Xorn, now Xorn spoke as if she had known her mate first. Dominic and all thoughts must immediately know what the truth is between Xorn and Vanadetta, his mate.

"Wait a minute, can you guys explain what's going on? I'm like an ignorant fool here ... !! Then how do you know my mate, Xorn? Did you previously have a relationship? Explain to me now." Dominic. Absolute.

Xorn faced Dominic.

"I will explain everything Alpha, but before that I want to ask Queen first .."

Xorn turned back to Vanadetta.

"Is it okay for me to tell the truth Queen?"

Asked Xorn carefully. Vanadetta nodded.

"Just say Xorn, I'm okay. At least for now I'll be safe. Better Dominic know now than he heard from other people. So just say, the rest I will say .." Vanadetta said.

"Alright Queen if that's what you want .."

Xorn turned back to Dominic. "Before I explain it Alpah, I ask you not to interrupt my conversation ..."

Dominic nodded.

"Queen and I are friends since childhood. Queen's parents are the leaders of the fairy world. Her father Queen is the son of the Demon King while Queen's mother is a mixture of devils and fairies. So in Queen's blood there are three bloods, namely devil, demon, and fairy. . At least for now. People think that demons and demons are the same, but in reality they are not. Demon is the highest leader after Lucifer, while Lucifer himself is the highest leader of the demon and demon kingdoms. In short, Queen said there is also mixed blood of Lucifer in him but for that Queen must wait for the red moon because Lucifer's blood will appear when the red moon appears perfectly. If you are curious about how Queen can have Lucifer's blood, the answer is because Grandfather of Queen is the incarnation of pure Lucifer which was created directly from the creator, the parents of his father Queen , King Luca de Vins, while his mother's blood is Queen Vanadetta, Quenn Zeline Amora de Luca Her fairy blood is more dominant than her demon blood. Meanwhile, my parents are the right hand man of King Christian de Luca, the father of Queen Vanadetta. Long story short, Queen Vanadetta's parents were tortured and killed in a cave in the forbidden forest, while Queen Vanadetta saw her parents being killed in front of her own eyes. Xorn looked at Vanadetta who had been silent all this time. "What Queen saw at that time was an illusion that he created, so what Queen saw was not true. Queen's parents were tortured and poisoned while on the other hand Queen saw that Queen's parents were killed directly in front of Queen's eyes by cutting off her head. Indirectly, the person attacks Queen's psyche by instilling a memory about the murder, even though the reality is not like that. Xorn paused for a moment before continuing. "After he implanted that memory, he also manipulated Queen's mind to run from the palace to escape so that his plan would run smoothly, but what he wanted did not come true. I want to ask Queen" said Xorn.

"Do you have a tattoo of a crescent moon and Roman script behind your ear?"

Vanadetta nodded in confirmation. "

"Can you tell Queen? I have no other intention, it's just that I want to hear and draw conclusions about why this could all happen to you," asked Xorn. Vanadetta looked at Dominic who had not made the slightest sound. Dominic smiled and nodded slowly. Vanadetta raised her head while closing her eyes.

"At that time I was twenty years old. While I was reading a book in the room, I was called by my father and mother to meet them. Inside I was surprised because my parents did not usually call me, they usually ordered soldiers to call me, but at that time it was different. , they immediately came to my room. I was overwhelmed by the strangeness of seeing the unusual behavior of my parents just obeying their wishes. So in short, I was invited into a room located at the back of the palace. I who did not understand anything entered the room. was inside, I was told to sit in a chair with ropes on the left and right. After I sat down, my father and mother tied my hands and also my feet. I tried to struggle, but somehow my body seemed like someone was holding it, even though inside the room was just me and my parents. When they felt ready, they locked me from the outside and left me alone in the room. What I felt at that time was silence, solitude, emptiness, until the roar of my own breath could be heard.

"Why did your parents leave you alone in that room?"

The words just came out of Dominic's lips. Vanadetta stared at his mate's face.

"I didn't know before .." Vanadetta replied, "But finally I found out .." "What is that..?" "My parents brought me to pure Lucifer, the figure who inhabited my grandfather's body as long as he lived. Because my grandfather was long gone, Lucifer who inhabited his body wanted me to be his master, but with the promise that if I turned twenty years old, I was not ready to be ready. with that Lucifer ... "explained Vanadetta.

"So now that Lucifer is in your body right now ..?" Asked Dominic again. Vanadetta nodded.

"That's why I asked Xorn to come here to guide me in holding back all the possibilities that will happen, only Xorn can do it .."

"But I'm your mate, why can't I ..?" Vanadetta gave Dominic a soft glance.

"I want you to be safe Dom, because if you accompany me, maybe the Lucifer in your body will fight with the Lucifer in me .." He explained again.

"You know that in my body there is Lucifer ..?" "Your scent is different Dom, so only high-level smells can feel it. Like me for example, and also Xorn. Right ...? Vanadetta asked Xorn.

Xorn nodded. "That's right, what Queen said, Alpha. As smart as you can hide your Lucifer, you will definitely smell a different scent from your body, but I wonder why Lucifer in your body suddenly struggles to come out? do not feel anything different from yourself. Alpha ..?

Dominic who was asked tried to think. Indeed, when he heard his mate speak, his body felt like someone wanted to come out, but Dominic tried to hold back and James also helped him from within. But over time a strange feeling started to spread throughout his body. Was this what Xorn said just now? he asked himself.

"If I may suggest, Alpha better go to the temple now, let me accompany you. Queen is okay to stay alone because there is already guarding her if we are not there. Faster better Alpha before it's too late", said Xorn.

Vanadetta stared at Dominic's exasperated face. "Listen to what Xorn said, Dom. I'll be fine. We can continue our conversation later.

Dominic, who heard Vanadetta's words, could only nod in resignation. his body suddenly grew uncomfortable.

"We better go now Alpha and Queen, Xorn looked at Vanadetta" You better change your eye color for a while so that it doesn't stand out too much ... "added Xorn again.

Vanadetta nodded again.

"I'll go first, mate, rest back, I'll tell Sam to accompany you here .."

"Okay Dom, your orders are absolute for me right .." he replied with a smile

After Dominic and Xorn left, Vanadetta lay back down and closed his eyes.

"Please take care of me and Dominic .." before he closed his eyes to rest.
