Anything for our Lord

~ Chapter 23 ~

As I was pulled deeper in I heard a voice calling out, "Love? Love! Are you alright?" It was my mother. I replied, "Yes, mother." Her worried gaze was locked on me. My father came closer. His expression was different from hers. He seemed disappointed and angry about something. My mother held her hand out and said, "Nolan. Please do not do this." He barked, "Have you any idea what kind of sin he has done?!?!?" I was taken aback it was not normal for my father to be acting like this. Even in situations where I expected him to be like this, he was usually calm and collected, but not now. He was completely different. My mother pleaded with him, "Nolan. He is just a child. He did not know better than that." He barked back, "He took her innocent and her life. How is that excusable?!?" She responded calmly, "I know. I know. But there was something off about him till now. Now he seems fine." I asked quietly, "W-what is going on?" My father pushed me back a bit and barked, "You know exactly what you did! How dare you?!?" I was frightened. This was really not like him and I moved away from him. My mother stopped him, "Stop! Nolan. There has to be an explanation. He would never do this out of freewill." He asked, "And what do you think it is?" She shrugged with her should, "I wish I knew." He responded, "There is on....There is only one thing that I know of that would let a person do such a thing, and the only was it could be admitted to a person is through...intercourse." My mother spoke up, "He is to young for such a thing." My father explained, "That is true but we both remember when Conroy told us about that incident with the man in the woods. The man could have admitted it to him." My mother shook her head, "Impossible. I am sure that the man did just rip his clothes nothing more." I spoke up, "No! He did more than just that, mot-.....mother." My gaze was lowered to the ground. Both of them stood there for a moment before taking me into their arms. I heard my father whisper to my mother, "Conroy took care of the man that day. We can not ask anyone if it really happen like this but the timing would fit this." Suddenly I felt my head feeling dizzy. I tried to hold on to them and to find out more but I lost conscious and was pulled into another memory. It was from a few years ago while I was a servant under the command of Lady Carriger. She moved my head up with putting her hand under my chin. Then she said, "You are the perfect toy for him. I am sure that Lord Sterling will love your little body." After that I felt my head getting dizzy again. I lost consciousness and was pulled into another memory. It was memory that was different. I yelled out, "Maria! Wait up!" My mother turned around. She looked a lot younger. Maria asked, "What is the problem? Are you too slow, Alessandro?" This was the moment I realized that this memory did not belong to me. It was from my uncle. Alessandro answered, "We have all the time in the world and you rush to get to this pond. I am quite sure that I am not the problem here." Maria laughed, "Oh brother. Stop being such a fool. I just love the wat-." She stopped herself. Alessandro looked around and asked, "Why did you stop?" She answered, "That man back there!" With that she pointed to a black haired man that was only wearing a shirt and stockings. He was taking off the rest of his clothing and stepped inside the pond. Maria asked, "Can we join him? Or would that be disrespectful?" Alessandro laughed, "Oh, Maria. You should not fall that stranger. Don't you see his ears? He is either a werewolf or a vampire." Maria did not respond and instead took her clothes off. Alessandro rolled his eyes and did the same. Then they joined the stranger into the pond. Maria 'accidently' swam over to the stranger and bumped into him. He apologized, "Oh. I am sorry, Madame. I did not mean t-." Maria cut him off and said, "Oh no. I should be sorry. A Madame like me should not be swimming around in ponds or else she would bump into an attractive gentleman." The stranger laughed, "Oh, Madame. You do not need to flatter me." Maria touched him around the neck and came closer, "Oh. I think I do." The stranger did not only turn human from her touch but also completely red. He stuttered, "O-Oh. I-I- Thank you, M-madame." Alessandro came in between and spoke up, "I think you should not let a virgin touch you like this." Maria yelled, "I told you to stay quiet the last time." Alessandro gave back, "Yes, I know, but I do not want you to have intercourse with a man that does not know that he should handle you with care and be gentle." The stranger tried to get away from Maria but was pulled closer to where their lips almost met and she whispered, "Where do you think you are going, pup?" The man got wide eyes from that and asked, "How do you-?" She answered, "Your attitude. You are too polite for a vampire but somehow you are to not rowdy enough to be a werewolf but still are one." Alessandro spoke up, "Let the man go!" She whined, "But h-" He cut her off, "No but's. Let him go! We are going!" Before I knew how it continued I was pulled out of my sleep by Adelaide jumping on the bed.
