Destiny and not a coincidence

Mother told what happened in the past and how Eve was conceived. Though it won't lessen my love for my daughter but it hurts to know that Amber's mom chose Ethan over me !

Was I so bad that, she didn't wanted her daughter to be with me ?

Let it be, by thinking about it the past isn't gonna change. Though she didn't wanted her daughter to be with me, yet her daughter first met me and fell for me and not for Ethan !

" Is that why I saw your coffin there and nobody else because I had mom's magic with me ? "

Amber asked mother.

" Yes my child. Though your mother wasn't with you, her magic was always with you. protecting you from the evil and guiding you to my sons and me. It's the destiny your mother chose for you ! "

Mother said caressing her head.

" Me opening the coffin ? "

Amber was still under process of understanding what happened.

" Your mother was the one who sealed the coffin with pure her magic and kept the other witch's magic away. And she passed her magic to you.

I told you your mother's magic have always protected and guided you. And her magic was the reason you were able to open the coffin even though you aren't a witch ! "

Mother explained to her.

" Evelyn... "

" She is a borne witch and also had the magic of your mother and that's why she was able to wake me up.

Your mother was very smart my child. Just imagine if, she hadn't thought of keeping the other witch's magic away, there was no way I would be here right now ! "

Mother said proud of her cousin.

Mother told us numerous things we were oblivious about. We didn't know mother had any cousin who was a witch too. We didn't know meeting Amber was our destiny and not some coincidence !

My daughter being a witch too was destined and not because she was the descendent of my witch mother.

Mothers do what not for their children. Mine did for us and Amber's did for her. And I am sure she is also gonna be an amazing mother for my daughter.

" Mother, you told us everything. But I have a doubt. I am not sure if, you know anything about it. "

I said unsure of how to ask her.

" Ask anyway, let's see if I know what you want to know. "

Mother said.

" How does Steve knows about the Goodwills ? "

I asked and Amber looked at me confused.

" Um...

When Steve made me say that, I was the one who killed them...

I was so mad at him for making me confess infront of Amber that, I forgot to ask him about how did he know about them ? And most importantly, how did he know what I did ? "

I said a bit embarrassed for talking about her dead parents again.

" I have the answer to your question my child. It all happened because of you ! "

Mother said glaring at me.

" What do you mean ? What did I do ? "

I asked confused.

" I blessed you with the privilege of compelling others so that, your prey won't recognize you and your identity would be safe. But you rascal, you used it however you wanted. You misused it ! "

Mother said getting more mad at me.

What in the hell did I do to make her this mad at me that, she is calling me a rascal ? I have never heard her curse no matter how mad she gets.

" What are you talking about mother ? "

I asked still trying to think about what had I done.

" After I was gone you feared nobody and did whatever you wanted. You started to think of yourself as the God who can create and destroy anyone's life !

You blessed the ones with life who listened to you and killed those who didn't.

Remember when, you asked Steve and Daniel to massacre an entire village if, they didn't want a bite from you ? "

Mother said digging up my past.

" Mother... "

" Shut up ! You got killed all those innocent people just because they denied to accept you as their leader ?

Daniel accepted your order just because he didn't wanted to be hunted down by you and asked you to compell Steve as he wasn't ready to accept what you asked and Daniel didn't wanted his brother to die !

You compelled innocent Steve into becoming a monster against his will !

I didn't gave you the blessing to misuse it.

They were the relatives of some witch from our coven and they came to seek help from our coven but nobody listened to them as they were vampires.

They came across Bella one day and told her that the invincible, rude and arrogant hybrid was causing a fuss by misusing his power to compell others into doing whatever he wanted !

Bella couldn't do much but Steve was so nice to her. He stayed with her and tried to help her getting out of her depression. He became like a son to her.

So when, she planned the accident she told Steve about it.

I had blessed you that, you could compell each and every one on the planet.

But your existence isn't natural so, you can't go against nature and witches are the purest form of nature and so your compulsion doesn't works on them !

She told him to have her blood just before she'd die so that, she will have some magic in her blood which will save him from your compulsion and he won't do anything against his will just because you asked him to.

And that's how he knows about Bella Goodwill. And she had told him to come and drink her blood when the accident happened.

He reached Bella along with Daniel before you did. When Ethan was busy saving Amber and you were satisfying your smell buds with the smell of blood, she gave them her blood. And that's why your compulsion doesn't work on them ! "

Mother said twisting my ear hard.

" Ahh...

Mother, it hurts ! "

I said trying to get her hand off my ear but she twisted it more.

" You deserve it ! I should have been with you and done this a long time ago to stop you from doing stupidities. "

Mother said.

" I am so sorry mother I acted reckless. I swear I won't do anything stupid from now on. You are right, you should have been with me all the time so that, I wouldn't have turned into the monster everyone fears.

Though, I like the power and being intimidating to all but they are scared of me because they know I will bite them and leave to die if, they won't do as I said.

Everyone is just afraid of me and don't love me or respect me. And all this because of my recklessness. I am sorry mother, I brought you the shame just like father said ! "

I said looking down embarrassed.

" It's ok my child. You have never got the love, care and appreciation you deserved since your childhood and so, you seeking it afterwards doesn't makes you wrong.

If, you had it in childhood you wouldn't have turned into a threatening person for gaining attention. "

Mother said hugging me.
