Love Agreement With The King

Chapter 242 - Line Up



"This place is amazing by the way," Roselyn said as she gazed around the gorge and she admired the beauty of nature, she could feel like nature was making her feel so much cheered up and calm as if from it she could feed on its energy and get a recharge of positivity.

Nature had the secret power to make you feel good and make your body perfectly collide with the natural elements becoming one with the whole environment. Roselyn always loved nature maybe it wasn\'t a coincidence if she found out she was a fairy of life.

"Yes, it is. It has always been my secret place now it can be ours." John commented as he smiled at her, he stretched his hand like if he wanted Roselyn to take it and when Roselyn took it her vision became dark.

She got shivers running all along her spine and she recognized that familiar sensation, she was going to have a vision.

She closed her eyes, she could feel the wind blowing intensely and when she reopened her eyes she was in that exact place but the there were brownish-reddish leaves on the soil as it was probably autumn.

Roselyn traveled her gaze toward the gorge until she spotted John there, her lips unconsciously curved up into a smile.

"John! I know you killed him!" A boy appeared from the ivy and ran toward him to grab John\'s jacket and push him to the ground, the guy\'s facial expression was so enraged that his face reddened and on his neck, his veins were so bloated.

John jolted when he was grabbed behind, that guy must have caught him off guard since John was relaxing sitting on the edge of the gorge admiring the view as he kept his eyes close.

The more her vision cleared the more she could easily recognize that guy\'s voice, it was Victor but he was so much younger, he was probably a teenager. He didn\'t have red eyes nor sharp long fangs or claws, he probably was still human back then.

"Victor! Let me go!" John complained as he tried to remove Victor\'s hand from his jacket.

"Is what my parents tell me about you true? Are you a bad person?" Victor\'s voice was broken and his lips trembled while he curved down his eyebrows as if he wanted to beg John to tell him his parents weren\'t right and he was a good person.

John scoffed, "Victor you can believe whatever you want. Now let me alone please."

Young Victor didn\'t give up, he pulled John\'s jacket once again but he barely moved John who limited himself to scoff one more time and knit his eyebrows down, "Victor! Stop pulling my jacket!" he raised his voice to scare Victor off who took few steps behind.

"This is my place and you don\'t have to come here anymore!" He scolded his young cousin one more time and Victor assumed a scared facial expression.

"Why are you changing? Why are you treating me so badly now?" Victor frowned his forehead as he kicked a stone of the gore and the ground slightly collapsed making John scream, "don\'t do that anymore!"

John stood up and pulled his hair behind as he clenched his fists, the usual gesture he did when he was nervous or in distress.

"Victor, I don\'t know what they tell you but you decide what to believe. I will never try to make you change your mind. You\'re the one who has to decide if you want me in your life or not." John blurted out and Victor shook his head as if hearing John he was even more confused than before, that was not the answer he wanted to hear. He needed reassurance from John, not a statement where he said he couldn\'t decide for him.

"I just want to know who you truly are." Victor yelled as he pushed John, "they say you kill people. I don\'t want to be in a good relationship with a murder!"

John dropped his gaze to the floor to remain quiet before he cleared his voice. After reorganizing his idea John offered his usual uncaring gaze and shrugged his shoulder, "why are you even talking to me if you\'re so sure about what you say? Why are you even here? To point your finger against me? If yes then line up because there are already so many people who are waiting for me to listen to their pointless critiques." John\'s voice was different from his usual furious voice, and Roselyn could tell that since she had heard him furious many times. She could easily tell he was forcing himself to sound mad.

Victor narrowed his eyes in anger and he released a scream of anger as he backed off.

"You disappointed me." He limited himself to say those three words and then his eyes filled with tears as he flinched around to run away the tears began to run down his cheeks but since John couldn\'t see his crying he didn\'t waste time to wipe them away and he fleed as fast as he could.

John took a deep breath and he sat on a stone on the edge of the gore, even if his behavior didn\'t show it he was sorry to disappoint Victor and he wanted to save his relationship with him but he felt like if Victor sided with him he would lose the support of his family and John didn\'t want him to remain alone as John did.

Roselyn took few steps forward him, forgetting for an instant she was having a vision and that wasn\'t the reality, but John\'s miserable facial expression made her heart drop in her chest. She stretched her arm to caress John\'s shoulder. But as soon as she touched his back her vision darkened again.

"Roselyn? Can you hear me?!" Roselyn opened her eyes and she was back in the gorge with John, he looked at her puzzled.

"You.. dissociated. Did you have a vision?" He asked her even if the answer was quite obvious.

"I did… I saw..." Roselyn hesitated whether if she should tell him or not but eventually she realized she couldn\'t lie since he already figured out she had a vision.

"I saw you arguing with a young Victor." She breathed out, John grimaced like if he recalled some painful memory and then he nodded.

"Yes, I could imagine that. He is the only one who discovered this place and I had to drive him away. I didn\'t want to cause him trouble." John admitted as he forced another fake smile.

Roselyn smiled at him genuinely as she held his hand, "so you preferred to make him hate you only to spare him a few arguments with his relatives? This shows that I was right when I told you that you had always been a kind person but nobody understood it."

John smiled, this time he gave her a true shy smile. "Thank you. However, I don\'t care what they think. To know you think I am a good person is enough for me.." He replied as he leaned closer and stole a kiss.
