Chapter-76

DANIEL NEPTUNE'S POV ? ?

Sleep. That was the only way I could let Madeline take over her.

From the past few days, I have been noticing that every time Victoria completes her training schedule, she wants to do nothing but sleep. There were times when I had to make her sit in ice-cold water so that she doesn’t fall asleep.

First, I had thought it was happening because of the exhaustion from the training, but I was so wrong. Her eyes had started to turn a shade darker day by day. She would tell me that she is just resting and not sleeping, but I could see it. Even a few minutes of rest was not good for her.

Her once brown and amber eyes were appearing darker and blacker. It was clear to me that Madeline was trying to take over her.

She was trying to take control of her body, and it was something to be concerned about, but I didn’t tell victoria anything. I didn’t tell her the reason because, at that time, I knew she will start panicking, and her state of fear will give Madeline an upper hand in the situation.

Today was finally the day when the action was supposed to happen. I was hoping that we could talk Christopher into not fighting, but who would've thought that there will such an interesting turn of events.

Not only was he the only guy who supported her throughout her life, but her grandma, who everyone thought was a well-wisher, turned out as the real villain of her story.

It was a good thing that I had a plan to save her from Christopher's wrath. And that plan was to make her fall asleep.

This way, not only will Victoria's soul be protected, but if Madeline wants to survive, she'll have to take over Victoria's body, or the powers will segregate, and all her plans will go to vain.

It was a bitter truth.

No matter how strong Victoria's powers were, and no matter how weak she was in front of them, she was the only thing that was keeping these powers together. She was like a medium in disguise.

If Victoria dies, the powers won't be able to take over the body. They would be left with two options, either they die/go back into the prison world, or they segregate and decide different hosts for their living.

This was something that I came to know recently. If I had known this earlier, then I would've surely applied this theory when I had seen her for the first time, and we all would've gotten what we desired.

However, I can’t blame anyone for that. Maybe this was what fate wanted from us.

Seeing that Azrael was unstoppable and had already chanted the last spell that will help Madeline take over and kill Victoria in the process, I used the trump card that I had been holding and not telling anyone about.

Her sleep.

Now that I think about it, god Madonna was indeed right. She had asked me to not trust anyone if I want to take her out safely, and it was a good thing I didn't disclose this plan to anyone, or Azrael would've known about it.

"Im Namen Gottes Madonna befehle ich dir zu schlafen." I said, smirking when I saw Azrael's eyes going wide. She must’ve thought that I love her too much for letting Madeline take over her with my will, but she was so wrong. This was the only loophole in her plan, and she knew it.

I am sure she hadn't thought that I would do this.

I saw Victoria falling on the ground as she fell asleep, and since Azrael was too shocked to react, I quickly, called Victoria's soul out so that she could be free from the body and not hurt in the process.

I know what I did was terrible. If I wanted, and we all could get together, then we would've tackled Madeline, but that would've caused Victoria's life, and in return our mate’s life too.

I also know that now that Madeline will take over Victoria's body, she will start the destruction of the world.

However, that's not something we should be scared about.

That was God's problem. They were the ones who created this mess in the first place, and they'll be the ones who will be cleaning after it.

"What the hell did you do!!" I heard Azrael shriek, taking me out of my thoughts. It looks like she is finally out of her daze.

"What do you think I did, Azrael? I just made your work easy. I ordered Victoria to sleep so that Madeline could take over her body easily." I shrugged, and Alexander and Ashton looked at me wide-eyed.

"Why the hell would you do that? She'll kill Victoria!!" Alexander shouted, and before I could see it coming, I was thrown across the room by Ashton.

Touching my jaws, I looked at my blood before looking at them. Dude, just because I am being lenient doesn’t mean I can’t fuck with your brains through my magic. I thought before calming my raging heart.

"That's not my problem or concern. Christopher is right. This problem needs to be fixed once, and for all. She'll be waking up soon. And she'll be waking up as Madeline. Ten times stronger than earlier because she had been practicing for 1000 years. So I'll suggest you guys give it your all when fighting her, okay?" I said before smiling at Christopher. historical

"Well, your wish to kill the hybrid will be fulfilled. Aren't you happy?" I asked, and his blazing eyes were a clear indication that he wasn't too happy with my idea. Neither was I, but did I have a choice?

"Well?" I asked. I know I was irking him at the moment, and that's all I need right now.

I want them to become angry. They should become so angry that their powers should start seeping through their bodies.

That way they'll be able to fight Madeline better.

I was busy in my thoughts, thinking about what I need to do more to irk them when out of the corner of my eyes, I noticed Azrael trying to wake Victoria.

"Don't try so hard. She has not slept for the last 37 days. I bet she is happy and content with her sleep now." I said, and the next thing I know is Azrael holding my collar.

"Why would you do that?! I had been preparing for soo many decades." Azrael shouted before her purple Magna started to engulf me.

"Uhuh.. You can't kill a king with your power. That to be the king of the dark witches, you know that right? I'll suggest you drop the idea of shouting at me because if I decided to kill you, I know everyone here will help me with that. I would be more than happy to kill you. But don't want to meet your elder sister who you've been missing for soo many years?" I asked, and she released my collar instantly.

I don’t know why, but I was having this strong intuition that she will be regretting waking her elder sister soon.

"Why are you fussing for? You wanted Madeline to take over Victoria's body. Now that this moron has completed your wish, you are fighting him?" Christopher shouted, his anger rising with each sentence.

Good going, this is exactly what I want right now.

I looked at Azrael, waiting for her to say something so that Christopher’s anger could rise, but before she could say anything, Victoria's body started to move.

She was waking up. Madeline was here, and I think this was my cue to leave them alone.

I have more things to attend to. For example, saving Victoria's soul and working on that crystal rose water thing that Victoria was so adamant about.

I hope I can find the clue soon so that I can help them if they are not able to tackle Madeline. Because I am sure if nothing works, then today will be written as the beginning of the destruction and the rule of negativity in the world.
