{CH-18} Gospel veracity

"Before that... how are you darling? Are you okay with this new witch thing?" he asked gently.Giselle opened her mouth to answered but was cut off."HA! I don't care.shocking isn't it?"

"Listen Ælfric.Why have you been sending threats? Why did you leave suddenly?" Lucas asked in a more gentle approach trying to pry out answers without provoking him.

"Ya'll are stupid.For this,i need everyone to sit down in a circle." he ordered and sat down.

Lucas and Mark obeyed nervously and sat down as well while Giselle was just standing up.

"Giselle darling,sit down. Idc that the floor is dirty and dusty." he said sharply.

"ever heard of hygiene?- HEY!" a jacket was thrown at her face.

"Sit.Down." Mark snapped.

Giselle rolled her eyes and sat down,using his jacket and sitting on it.(i hope you get the idea.If not; it's basically her using it as a carpet/mat)

"So... just so you know,Ya'll are gonna be dead so i don't mind these secrets going out,cause they're not going out anyways." Ælfric continued." I'm sure you do know mademoiselle Audrey right?"

Mark's breath hitched while Ælfric's face glowed with mischief.

"yeah.... what about it" Giselle spoke up for Mark since she saw how that triggered him.

Mark smiled faintly at the gesture but was still scared.

Lucas just watched,wondering what hidden conversations were going on without him.

"She is my disciple.Wait,wait wait... I'll start from the beginning. You know how i was like really really popular before,wait,let me correct myself.i still am." he laughed out loud.

Everyone else looked at eachother confused.

"Stop staring at me like that~ Ya'll are younger than me,you should be familiar with these sigma alpha skibidid stuff right?" he tried.

Lucas gasped."What.The.Heck." he muttered in disbelief.

Mark and Giselle were dumbfounded and held in there giggles.

"ENOUGH." his voice boomed through the dome. "I don't want to hear your humbug's anymore.Now.." he cleared his throat."Shall we continue? When I was the leader,I've always had this desire...desire to rule over the entire world,not just our realm though...even trash land. I obviously had everyone swooning over me,even Audrey.She was ready to do anything,anything for me.So,of course I asked her to keep a secret."

Mark,Lucas and Giselle were huddled up,shivering in both enthrallment and temperature.They were leaning against a rock while Ælfric carried on with his confession.

"I was planning to disappear and then attack the Clave when they were least expecting it.But... I found you.I felt this invisible attraction,a bond pulling me towards you.Oh,btw,I was in trash land this whole time" he eyed Giselle while talking.

"You pedo! what the fuck do you mean?" Mark shouted while gripping on to Giselle.

"Oh no! I didn't mean it as a romantic attraction.It was like a fatherly affectionate one.Turns out,I was right.After a bit of researching,I found out that Giselle is in fact the daughter of my human cousin..Giselle,your father Ryan was the son of my distant Aunt and uncle. He married a human being,but at a price.He had to give up his warlock abilities.Thus,when they had you,you didn't have any powers.But,i saw capability in you.So,I chose you to be a witch." he tried to clear the misunderstanding.

Everyone else's jaws were on the floor.(figuratively obviously)  

"Then why have you called us here?" Mark tilted his head confused.
