Chapter 23 | The Secrets Unfolded (Part 1)

Val's POV

Laura was glaring at me with so much hatred that I wished the ground would swallow me whole right then and there. I have no idea what she was talking about. How on earth can a human be a threat to the entire supernaturals? This was beyond my understanding. "What the hell are you talking about Laura?" Ryan growled. "It was destined to be Ryan. And the only way we could save our species is to kill her." Laura spat venomously. She is talking about killing me right in front of me, at least she can be a little generous and talk about it privately. That witch!

I nervously moved behind Ryan so that I don't have to face the witch's vicious glares. "Can you please elaborate how Valerie is going to be your downfall?" Keil inquired completely clueless. Laura shot him an irritated look and asked me "Well, ever wondered who your parents are human?" That got me quite restless. Nobody has ever inquired about my parents before. "Th-they...... I don't h-have par-parents." I said while biting my lower lip, something I do when I am sad. Keil and Ryan looked quite shocked with my reply where as Laura seemed all bored.

"Do you know who were your parents? Any distant memory? Anything?" She asked irritated. "N-Noo..!" I whispered and she sighed. "Well human, your parents weren't like you." "W-what do you-u me-mean?" I asked clearly bewildered by her words. "Your mom's name was Harmonia, she was the goddess of concord and your dad was a vampire, which explains why you are a mate of a vampire and not some other creature." She said taking us all by surprise. "And that's why I have a doubt that you aren't human as well." She added and walked towards what looked like a magic mirror. I was terrified by the new found information. I wasn't aware of the supernatural until a couple of weeks ago and she's telling me that I am a child of a vampire.

"You could be lying for all we know." Ryan questioned. "But I am not." She replied. "I-if they were my parents then why they left me? Vampires are im-immortal and my mom was a goddess, as you say, so why did they left me all alone? They couldn't possibly be dead." I asked timidly. "Well see for yourself." She said and brought the mirror in front of us. All of a sudden the whole room went black and the only visible thing was the half length mirror. Ryan instantly grabbed my hand and intertwined our fingers. The mirror started to show us different events ---

Third person's POV

The world was at peace. Humans, vampires, werewolves, witches, fairies and demons all were at peace. They were used to each other's involvement in each other's world. There was no fear, no terror and no one was oblivious to any of the creatures prevailing in this beautiful world.

That was the time when goddess Harmonia was sent to the earth. She was asked to live here as a normal human girl, to ensure the safety of this world which had a mixture of all creatures in it. And during her stay on earth, she fell in love with a vampire.

Which wasn't supposed to happen. The sole reason for which she was sent to earth by the Gods, was to maintain harmony among the creatures. And the rules were, she had to keep her identity hidden and she wasn't supposed to get involved with any creature on the earth in any possible way, let it be love, hate, jealously anything. But she broke the rule. She broke it for love. And that was when all hell broke loose.
