Chapter-72 Her dark side
Chapter-72 Her dark side
DANIEL'S POV
I was shocked. Not because of the revealing of such unpredictable truths, but because of the cold
person that Victoria has turned into.
Even my wolf was becoming edgy, looking at her as he was growling and clawing at me to take control
so that he can take her away from here and calm her down.
She looked nothing like the girl I love, rather she was looking like an incarnation of the devil, who was
out there hunting souls.
Her amber-hazel-colored eyes had turned completely orchard-yellow as she looked at Alexander and
Katie sinisterly. And to be honest, I was too scared to say anything to her anymore.
When I entered earlier with Katie by my side, I had witnessed the horrifying scene of Victoria punching
Alexander and then plunging that knife in Laila's body, and couldn't help but feel my insides wrenching
when I saw the cold smile that she smiled even after doing something so sinister.
And from the look that she was throwing Katie's way, I was sure she wasn't satisfied yet and was
looking for more blood.
I gazed at our former king, Theodore Roosevelt, and couldn't help but feel confused when I saw a
polite smile lurking on his lips. As if sensing my gaze on him, he looked my way before smiling gently.
Seriously? What is wrong with this guy? His future daughter-in-law is shredding people to pieces, and
rather than stopping her from creating this bloody mess, he was standing there smiling like a proud
fool.
"That's exactly how she is mentioned in the books. The brutal Carla that everyone knows." He
murmured, making me more confused while the head chef that was standing beside him looked at him,
shocked.
Turning my gaze back at Victoria, I looked at her smiling sweetly as she gazed at Alexander calmly,
which looked like the calm before a thunder.
I need to stop her before she kills everyone here because from what I can see, her dark side was
taking over, and it wasn't a good thing for a lantern. A dark lantern was more brutal than an angry
werewolf.

VICTORIA'S POV
"Victoria, you bitch. You dare hurt me!" Katie finally said, lunging at me as she gripped my neck,
making me slightly stumble before I pulled her hands away from my body and turned her hands in the
opposite direction, making a cracking sound reverberate in the hall.
"Ahhh...the sound of bones cracking, I just love this sound," I said while smirking at our fake Alexander,
whose resolution was breaking now.
Good, just one more trigger, and he will start spilling the beans.
"Look, I love this game, but I don't have it all day. I have a mate to protect, secrets to reveal, a friend to
meet, and what have you said that day? Yeah, pleasure my mate. So, I am going to make it a bit short
and end this game here. Since you are not willing to reveal the truth, I can't help it anymore." With that,
I started twirling the knife in my hand before making a long cut on Katie's face.
"See, I am going to protect my mate by hook or crook anyways, now that I know the whole truth, but if
you want your mate to live, you better say it yourself. I assure you that the punishment won't be a death
sentence for sure, and you two can live together, however, if you still don't want to speak up, then I'll kill
her and make sure that you'll be tormented for the rest of your life. Besides, your leader, what is he
called, Robert, we already know his head base. It's out of the pack borders on the northwest side
behind the thorny bushes of the witch spelled great Lotus garden, no?" I said, and I won't lie but the
anxious and panicked impression on Aiden's face was something I liked.
"Since you still don't want-" I said, raising the knife in the air, however before I could plunge the knife
into Katie's heart, I heard a loud voice, making me smile as I looked at Aiden for answers.
"Wait. You are right." The fake-alexander, or should I say, Aiden said before falling on the ground in
defeat.
"Very well, start spilling the beans," I said before pulling my chair in front of him, waiting patiently for
him to start.
"You are right, I am not Alexander. I am Aiden, Katie's mate. This started on the day after you mated
with Alexander. You were out in the woods and was wounded, and Daniel had accompanied you to the
nearest pack doctor.
Theodore and Rosaline Roosevelt went out of the mansion to meet the council members, Chris and
Sean along with Laila were on the pack border duty, and thus, they were also not in the mansion.
Seeing that it was the right opportunity, and well since Robert didn't believe that Daniel would be able
to do this task because he was such a loyal dog, he asked Katie to do the work, and she had added
that witch spelled powder that made Alexander dizzy for few seconds and paired with that witch spelled
potion, we were able to abduct Alexander without anyone knowing about it." Aiden said, making me
kick his chest in anger.
"Victoria, let him finish first, will you?" Daniel hurried over before holding my arms as I was about to
punch him again.
"As I was saying, it was a plan we had been discussing for a few months, and thus, to attack the pack
when you guys would be least expecting, Robert asked a powerful witch to spell the delusion to make it
look like I was the real Alexander so that we can start attacking, slowly taking over the kingdom while
no action would be taken from the mansion since the king was not giving orders. What we didn't expect
was this Victoria to see through our actions." Aiden said, looking at me with animosity.
"You are angry? Do you dare to? This wasn't even your plan. You did all of this because Katie was your
mate, and she wanted to take revenge on Alexander and the kingdom for the death of her parents that
was caused by a random rogue attack a few years ago. Am I right, Katie, the alpha of Blue moon pack? Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
She had been blaming the kingdom for so many years without even knowing the whole truth, no?" I
asked Katie, who looked at me with a shocked expression.
Even Theodore and Daniel looked at me with shocked expressions as if they were waiting for further
explanation from me, which I was more than glad to provide.
To be honest, though I was extremely friendly and familiar with Katie and all, I had been observing
everyone keenly from the moment I had come here to this town because of my trust issues, and I must
say, it was the first time, they had helped me soo much.
