Chapter 51: No Time on us

Victoria's POV

''What did you say?'' I asked, with stunned eyes.

She released a soft sigh and placed her hands on my shoulders. ''I know you must have gone through a lot without your wolf and abilities, but I have to subdue your abilities for your safety. If I had let you have your abilities like others, then you would be in danger, and we can't let that happen.'' She explained.

All she said didn't make sense to me. All I was bothered about was my wolf. ''So you took away my abilities.'' I asked.

''No, there are in you. I just subdued them, so they wouldn't manifest.'' She replied.

Hearing those words, I became confused and wondered what she was really saying.

''Why would you do that? Do you know what I went through? Do you know the humiliations I have to go through just because of this.'' I yelled angrily while I remembered the humiliations I went through.

Lady Laura sighed softly and took her hands off my shoulders. ''I'm sorry that you have to go through that, but those were the instructions given to us by the moon goddess…'' I did not let her finish her words, before I cut in.

''Moon goddess, so the moon goddess was the chief planner of all this,'' I yelled in anger. ''Calm down Vicky, we did that for your good, we can't let you shift into your wolf or start showing your abilities to everyone, it will announce you and the vampires will come looking for you, and you are not ready for that.''she tried explaining, but I wasn't buying it.

''Damn it!'' I yelled angrily and moved away from her.

''Calm down Vicky. I know all this is hard for you to take in, but as time goes on you will know and understand everything you have to know,'' She begged.

I ignored her words and went into deep thought. A few days ago, I was just a normal girl who went through hell, and now I'm a special girl with gifts and abilities. How ridiculous can life be.

''Your training starts tomorrow.'' She spoke up.

''Indeed.'' I scoffed and shook my head.

''We don't have much time with us, the time is fast approaching, and you need to get ready,'' She explained, but I did not say a word.

''You will have to undergo some training and when I see that you can withstand your wolf and abilities, then I will unleash your powers and abilities, but before then you have to prepare for what is to come.''

''And what is to come?'' I asked curiously.

She sighed and shrugged her shoulders.

''So many things, and you just have to get prepared.'' She flashed me a weak smile before looking away.

I chuckled bitterly and stared at the grave tomb with curiosity.

''How was she?'' I asked with my gaze fixed on the grave tomb. ''You mean your mother.'' She asked, and I nodded my head in reply.

She walked up to me and stood beside me while she fixed her gaze on the tomb.

''Imagine yourself in her because you will become a replica of her.'' She smiled and drew back tears that threatened to fall down her cheeks.

I took in a deep breath, moved up to the tomb, and slowly ran my fingers on it for a while before stepping away.

''Let's go back to the house, I need to show you around.'' I nodded my head to her words, stared at the grave tomb for a while before turning around.

” Let's go.''she said those words and led the way out of the tunnel.

We took the stairs back to the room, left the room and took the stairs back to the sitting room.

''Greetings, my lady.'' I noticed a young man who should have been in his early thirties walked up to us and slightly lowered his head in respect.

''Thank you, Austin, please allow me to introduce you to Victoria. I believe you know her.''

''Of course, we've been waiting for her arrival. Nice to finally get to meet you, Victoria.'' He beamed and brought forth his hand for a handshake, which I took.

''Nice to meet you, Austin.'' I replied with a smile.

''Victoria, Austin will be your personal trainer. Don't worry, he is pretty good at it.'' Austin smiled back at me, which I returned.

''There are some trainings you have to undergo, so your body can be fit to carry your wolf and abilities. I hope you understand.'' I did not say a word, but rather I went into deep thought.

''Alpha Derick has a mate, so how can I be his mate?'' I asked.

Austin chuckled softly and smiled widely at me, before speaking up.

''She is just a mate given to him by his father. You are his real mate, and I believe he knows that by now.'' Hearing those Words from Austin, I did not know how to feel about it.

One part of me was filled with pain and hatred for him for all he made me go through, and another part of me felt happy and fulfilled.

''Does he know about this prophecy?'' I asked.

''No, but he is already prepared for it, and after you are done with your training, you will have to go back to the moon pack to explain everything to him.''

''No, no, no, I'm not going back there.''

''This isn't a choice, you have to go back because there is no much time for us.'' She murmured in a worried tone which made me curious.

''When is this fight?'' I asked with fear and curiosity. ''Two years from now.''she murmured almost to herself. ''You must be kidding me.'' I scoffed in disbelief. '''I wish I were, but that's just the truth, and I believe the vampires have also gotten this prophecy, and they will be getting ready for this. We have no time on us, Vicky,'' She explained.

The moment I heard those words from her, I felt fear envelop my entire body at the thought of it.

I have never gotten into a fight, neither do I have proper training, and now I have just two years to get prepared for a fight as dangerous as this.

''Thanks goddess, you always complicate things for me.'' I murmured in anger.
