Chapter-63

VICTORIA’S POV ??

Have you ever had that feeling when you are treated nicely so that you can be tortured later on?

No? Well, that was exactly what I was feeling right now.

“Do not move your feet, Victoria!” Daniel shouted angrily at me.

“I am trying, okay?” I shouted back before standing on my toe on the chilling ice slab. historical

I have been standing on this tortuous slab for thirty minutes, and I can’t help but feel numbness all over my body.

Now, you might be thinking why I was standing on this slab, right?

Well, according to Daniel, this is a part of his rigorous training plan.

Let me start with the beginning.

Yesterday, when we reached here, it was already evening, and I was treated like a princess getting all the attention in the world.

To say I was happy would be an understatement.

I was provided with a king-sized bed and a personal maid to tend to my needs.

Everything was going perfectly fine till morning until Daniel decided that it was a good idea to wake me up at 4 in the morning and torture me with this so-called training.

It has been around two hours since we started this training thing, and so far he had made me run ten miles, lift large rocks, catch the falling leaves of a tree, burn a tree, and then turning it into its previous form, all with the help of my powers.

And currently, I was standing on this ice slab with numb feet and palms oozing flames, which he says is necessary to control the heat of my power. Personally, I think that he is doing this ice slab thing because he is still pissed about yesterday’s event when I burnt his car.

“I think that’s enough, Daniel. She will get frostbite at this pace.” Ashton said, and I would’ve felt thankful to him if he wasn’t the one who suggested that I run those ten miles without the help of my powers.

And this wasn’t the last part of my training, according to them, they were just getting started with it.

After I am done with this task, I will have a no-power usage fight with Ashton, and then a power-only fight with Daniel, which I am sure is going to be a hell lot of pain for me than they think.

I mean, who are they kidding? They are freaking Kings in their domains. I am nothing in comparison to them.

“Don’t go easy on her, Ashton. This is not the time for us to feel sympathy towards her.” Daniel said and it made me annoyed.

Of course, this wasn’t the time to sympathize with me. This is the time to torture me freely in the name of training.

‘They are doing this for our good, Victoria.’ Carla said, annoying me more in the process.

Feeling annoyance and irritation creeping up my body, I looked down as my foot made a sudden dip in the ice slab. The ice slab was now melting at a much rapid rate than before.

“See, I told you to not sympathize with her. I am sure she is angry, and that’s why those flames are acting like that. She needs to learn how to control them, or she will hurt people around her even after this issue is resolved. She had this power when she had learned about her magic. However, Azrael had contained her power again. At that time, the powers were still controllable, but now she needs to learn that all over again,” Neptune said.

Hearing his conversation, I tried to contain my anger and started thinking about good things, but as soon as I closed my eyes, the image of Madeline appeared in front of me, and before I could react, I fell on the ground, the ice slab breaking into tiny cubes.

“I don’t think it will be that easy to control these flames,” I sheepishly smiled while looking at Neptune, who just shook his head at me before sighing loudly.

“You know how to swim, right?” He suddenly asked me.

“Yeah, a little bit. But why are-” I started, but my question was answered when he clicked his fingers, and I was thrown into the lake.

What the hell! I thought as some of the water went into my mouth, making me cough loudly.

Kicking my legs in the water, I tried to swim up.

I took a deep breath as soon as I surfaced on the water, their laughing faces bringing a smile to my face.

“For the kings of two entities, you surely are kids,” I commented before clicking my fingers, and my wet outfit was replaced with a new outfit.

“Wow, you guys are gifted to have such powers. Just a click of a finger, and you can do anything.” Ashton said, looking at me amazed as he circled me.

“So just because I can change my outfit with the powers, you think this is amazing?” I asked, shaking my head before sitting on the bench.

“Of course. You have no idea how long it takes me for that stuff. If I had those powers, I will surely use them to clean myself, dress, and move here and there. It will save me so much time,” He commented, and I was about to say something when the bench from under me disappeared, and I landed on the ground again.

“It’s time for the fight with Ashton,” Neptune said, I groaned loudly before looking at Ashton, hoping he would be on my side, but I was so wrong.

As soon as I turned to look at him, he made use of his Vampire speed, and I was thrown on the other side, my back hitting the tree painfully.

“Hey! This is cheating! He is allowed to use powers, but I am not?” I groaned before standing.

“Oh, I am not going to use my powers. I was just showing off a little bit,” Ashton commented and I clenched my fists.

“.....” And honestly, I wanted to wipe that smirk off his face.

Let’s see who will be showing off in the end.
