Chapter 13 Alex
I had the strangest dream ever. I was back in my world, I saw my family. They were alive. All of them. Only one problem. They were convinced I was dead. The man asked them to help him with getting Alex Barlowe out of his game, so he wanted me really dead. He knew it was me. Then the realization hit me. I should have brought all the supernatural to this world. Lock the door to the human world and throw the key away. Shit! The memory of the picture came back to me. I will kill Ben! I will… Fuck! I can't kill him! Damn it! I just have to kick his ass just to hug him. But I have to wake up! Why the fuck can't I wake up? I looked around the space I was in. I saw a woman. I never saw her in my whole life, but it was my grandmother. My grandpa would rip her heart out of her, if he met her again.
“You have to wake up to stop the maniac.” I looked at her with a confused look. “The human talking to your family. He is your half brother. He is more than jealous of you. He planned this whole separation. He thought you would turn into a monster. But he helped you, didn't he?”
“He did. Thank you for this information, but next time we see each other… Let's say, I will deliver you to my grandfather.” She smiled and nodded.
“I know. I wouldn't expect less of you. I fucked up and deserve all I will get from him. Anyway… Get to your first plan. Come back here. Take even the humans they work for you. It's time for you to take your crown. Watch your back, be safe!” She vanished and I was back in my body.
“How do you mean, he isn't waking up?” Miss Ray was here. “Do something!”
“Honey, calm down!” Sonya tried her best.
“What about Lisa? How is she?” Miss Ray sounded worried.
“She is fine, just too much information,” Ben explained.
This debate went on for another five minutes. I pretended to be asleep. I felt they placed Lisa next to me. She was sleeping calmly. They started to raise their voices. I had to stop them.
“Shut the fuck up! You are fighting over shit for almost half an hour and you got nowhere!” I sat down. Miss Ray ran to me and hugged me.
“Boss, you scared the shit out of me! Is Lisa fine?” I nodded not once taking my eyes away from Sonya and Ben. Miss Ray went to feed her baby boy.
“So?” I asked.
“Oh come here!” Sonya jumped at me and hugged me. “I am so happy to see you! Please don't scare us like this, never ever again.”
“Gladly,” I hugged her back. “And for you!” I turned to Ben. He swallowed empty. “You are lucky I am glad to see you! That keeps you alive!” Sonya let me go and I walked to him and we briefly hugged.
“Thanks. I wish I knew sooner.”
“Now, leave my bedroom. I have a sleeping beauty to wake up.”
“Ew, too wild in imagination!” Ben was first out.
“Could I…”
“Out!”
“Oh, you are more and more like your father and grandfather. Fun killer!” She closed the door.
“How peaceful it was, when I was in oblivion!” I shook my head. I sat next to her and placed my hands around her body. I kissed her forehead. “Wake up, kitty.” I whispered to her ear. She moaned and slowly opened her eyes. I saw the relief in them. She hugged me tightly. “Oh, okay! Its okay! I know you have a million questions added to the other million of them from before. You will find out step by step. But now, we need to prepare everything for our relocation.”
I told her everything I experienced. I explained the story roughly to her. She was listening without interrupting.
“Once upon a time the Elements created the whole universe. They made some hocus pocus and created dragons. Powerful majestic creatures. The dragons felt lonely, so they asked the Elements to create more beings. Next creation were elves. Pure rase. Tabula rasa. Dragons and elves made a pact. They could create other beings. So they created magicians, vampires and werewolves. After centuries of a piece, someone wanted more power. In secret the witch from the dark elves created humans. For fun. For hunting and killing. The war had come and everything was different ever since. The “evil” was defeated. But who can say, what is right or wrong? Who is the judge? Killing people or other creatures with no reason is bad in my book. But hey, I was told so. Maybe it's the other way around. I don't give a fuck. I know everybody has a right to live.
To explain my family: I was chosen to be the King of all worlds and creations, because I was the most powerful being ever. I had part of the power of the Elements, I could erase or create. I was fucked up kind of creature. I was a combination of elves, magician, werewolf, vampire and I was bound to a dragon prince. Total combo. With more power I became more violent and unstable. The magic made us look like sex gods, masculine and tall. Women were gorgeous. I figured we would look the same without magic, but I never wanted anybody to feel less because of how we look. So to the rest of my family.
Grandpa was the first vampire. Wise, without magic. He found a human woman and had two sons, twins. She became an immortal and went nuts. She ran away. My grandpa found his soulmate. I would call her a grandma, but she would kick my ass. She is a vampire slash witch. Her power is in control of bugs, snakes and mices and all this not so popular shit. She has power over poisons. She can absorb every poison and would not die. She is a badass, because she can handle my grandpa.
Grandpa's brother was a hybrid between a powerful magician and an elve. He found his mate soon, she was a witch. In the human world they would call her Death. Uncle was bound to a dragon King, the very first dragon. He and his mate have a cute daughter. But she was the origin for the story of Jekyll and Hyde. Normally she looks like a small girl: cute, playful, devilishly wild. But when pushed over the edge, she changed into a grown up woman. A killer. She will protect those who she loves. I like the killer more, we have so much in common.
My dad is one of the twins. Just a vampire. He had more women. First was an white elves queen, my mother. She pretended her death, so she could get rid of us. Bitch! Next woman was a low rated witch. They had two kids - my sister and baby brother. She tried to kill my brother and father ended her. He found his mate a century later. She is a flame witch. Very powerful. I like her. She is really answerone. And you just met her. They have a daughter - our baby sister. These two are a great team in calming everybody down.
Dead's brother is a pain in the ass, ironic even sarcastic asshole. But mostly he has good points. He had one woman, she gave him son and daughter, but she died during the delivery. He found an almost killed werewolf and fed him his blood, which created a hybrid. He took him in as his son. He fits in our family perfectly. Uncle's mate is an ice witch. She is the only one able to tame him. She and my stepmom are besties.
From my mother's side there are three sisters and their husbands. I like them, especially the craziest couple - forest elves. White elves are normal, if you can use this word. And the dark ones? Well they fight every single minute. They had a daughter, but she switched sides. The whore was my fiance once. She broke my heart. I owe her a revenge in the form of delivering her to her parents.
My sister (the older) is engaged to werewolf prince, my baby brother has his low power witch and my little sister was lucky to be mated to our adopted cousin. I feel sorry for him, he has a really hard time handling her crazy shit. I don't understand how. Whatever.
My cousin is a womanizer. He loves to read the human bullshit books full of sex and passion, they call it smut or something. His baby sister found an elven magician. She is similar to my little sis.
My grandpa and I found a wounded kid once, he was almost dead. When I healed him, we found out he's royal. He wanted just a simple life. He stayed with us and my sister's fiance's sister is his love.
Talk about complicated, right? We have names they gave us in this century. At least some of us. There are many more friends. But there is time for everything. And I see your head just exploded.”
She was looking at me with her mouth fully open. She cleared her throat.
“Holy shit! How the hell should I remember all of this?” Good point! Very good point! She was just pushed in some very deep water and everybody expects her to swim in it. I just wish I could make it easier. But there is no way in hell how.
