Narika: The Ghost Bride-Chapter 212 - Two Hundred And Twelve:Trapped For Eternity.
"A..Adrik." Marilyn couldn’t hold in her tears any longer, the moment her eyes were hooked on her son. It poured. Five years! Five long years of false promises Lucifer has made to her, and yet right now she was seeing him of her own will just because today was such a special day in hell.
She could see the hate that ran across her son’s eyes, but she didn’t blame him for what he’s doing. She’s the cause of all these, his problems started the moment she opened her legs for that vicious creature.
"I will give you guys space." Marilyn’s eyes moved away from him, towards the girl who was carrying his son. Her grandchildren, but then when Narika stood up to leave, Adrik made the statement that hurt her deeply.
"It doesn’t matter, she’s about to leave." Adrik said coldly, giving his mother the hint that he’d clearly not interested in listening to whatever it was she was about to say right now.
It’s clear to him that she sold her body, heart and soul to Lucifer, and she should rather stick at his side than to involve him in whatever thing all this is.
"Baby..." Narika tried to change his mind, but the look he gave her made her shut her mouth instantly, and she sat back down on the foot of the bed, while cradling a much awake Ares in her arms.
She didn’t want Adrik to be on bad terms with his mother, but seeing that this has nothing to do with her. She had no say in whatever decision he would make towards her mother, judging from the way he’s glaring at her, she’s sure that if she wasn’t here, he’s going to push his mother out of the room.
"It’s okay, you can stay. I’m also here to help with your son’s feeding." Marilyn told Narika with a smile, as she still stayed close to the door without moving any further than where she was.
Her hands itched to touch her son, to touch Adrik but she didn’t know where to start with the apologies. Lucifer had ruined her life, pretty much her chances of having a better relationship with her son who she thought was dead.
"You are far away from helping from where you stand." Narika said, her words made a groan leave Adrian’s lips. He didn’t like the idea of anyone but him and his baby’s mother touching their son. Since he didn’t know what secret mission Lucifer’s whore had in mind.
But he overlooked the fact that he didn’t want her here, any close to them since it’s imported that his son feeds, then Marilyn forced a smile on her face before opening the door and a maid walked in carrying a tray before they came close to where Narika was seated in the bed.
When their eyes met an empty plate, a knife and an empty feeder on the tray, Narika got real curious on the part where they were with a knife, and when Marilyn noticed that she’s scared, she gave the midwife a signal to explain things to Narika.
Having a baby was such a blessing, but also it came with pains seeing that it wasn’t just a normal baby, but she knew that Narika wouldn’t be as freaked out as she was at first, when she had her twins and was forced to learn how to feed them.
"Demon child’s are unlike any other children, and feeding is an essential fact if you want them not to go rogue." The midwife explained.
"I tried breastfeeding him, but he isn’t doing anything close to seem like he’s hungry." Narika complaimed, she was really worried about hearing the midwife’s statement.
The woman smiled, before taking the little knife up and stretched forth her hand." They feed on blood until the cleansing ceremony is over, then your breast milk would be mixed with your blood, making it easy for him to adapt to the changes."
Narika didn’t hesitant before giving her left hand out to the midwife, she looked at Adrik who didn’t look like he had anything to say, it seems like he understood how all these works, and she’s forced to ask his mother if he did that to him too, but waved the idea off.
When the midwife raised the knife up, she remembered that she doesn’t bleed, until she watched the knife open her skin and her blood came pouring on the plate. It amazed her the changes her body had taken, was it because of childbirth?
She looked down at Ares, who gave her a heart warming smile as if he understood what was running across her mind, but he knew right? Her son is special, although she has no idea how powerful he was because he’s just a little kid to her, until she remembered that dream she had about him.
His laughter took on another form, and she returned the gesture back.
"He’s such a bubbly one, isn’t he?" Marilyn asked, watching down on her grandson, before Narika said.
"Would you mind carrying him?" She watched the surprise on Marilyn’s face, because the woman thought that she would be angry at her just like her mate was, but then Narika used the idea of getting blood taken away from her hand, and let Marilyn carry Ares.
She could have passed him over to him, but then she didn’t want to punish the woman further, the person behind all these that are happening right here is Lucifer. He’s the one to be blamed and not her.
After the midwife was done getting blood from her, under Narika’s watchful eyes her skin started healing, making everyone gasp.
"Babe, did you see that?" She asked Adrik, who hummed, before looking at his son who his mother was cooing words to him, while his laughter filled the room.
"It seems like the speck of having a demon child." The midwife said, before she poured Narika’s blood into the feeder." Now,it’s time to eat." She added.
Marilyn didn’t like the fact that the baby was taken away from her so fast." You can come see him whenever you want to." Narika told her, and a smile replaced the frown on her face.
"Thank you." Marilyn managed to say, before turning to wipe the tears away from her face, while Adrian scoffed at her ridiculous acting.
He was angry at Narika for giving her such assurance, but then he remembered that she has nothing against his mother. He’s the one who has issues with her.
While he focused on what’s more important, everyone saw the way Ares’ face crumbled when the feder was placed in his mouth, but the moment the blood tasted his virgin lips. His red eyes glowed and he sucked more on the feeder.
"Easy there, tiger."Narika cooed, seeing the way he’s rushing his meal. If she wasn’t accustomed to all of these, she would have rebuked whatever god that created such a monster that feeds on blood.
But instead of that, she looked down on her son with love. The others might call him a monster, but he’s her everything. Her very own warrior!
"It seems we need to be more fast in preparing for the cleansing ceremony, he looks like a huge eater, we won’t want you losing much blood before then." The midwife said, while Narika nodded her head before mumbling a thanks to her as she excused herself.
It was now just her, Adrik and his mother.So, while she focused her attention on her son, she hoped that Marilyn would use this opportunity to instigate a discussion with Adrik, because she doesn’t know if Adrik would be chanced again to talk to her.
"Adrik, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry for..."
"Hold it, it’s useless." Adrik cut her short, breaking the woman’s heart more and more." I thought you were smarter than this, what the heck are you even doing here? Do you love him so much that it’s better to leave Vanessa all alone to be with him?"
He bombarded her with a lot of questions, that she didn’t even know where exactly to start." He took me away, Adrik. What’s so hard for you to understand?"
"It’s hard to understand because you kept who my father is away from me, until i died. Who does that?" He yelled, making Ares jump in Narika’s hold hearing his father’s voice.
"I was scared of losing you, he made a promise to keep away and that was nothing but a lie, son. He tricked me, as much as he did to everyone. I did it to protect you." Marilyn cried, but instead of Adrik to put himself in her shoes to understand her predicament. It was the opposite.
"Yeah, says the woman who had another set of children for the man who tricked her, i understand all of that, now you may leave." Adrik said pointing at the door, she had overstayed her welcome.
With her having more children for Lucifer meant trapping her down here for eternity, and if she didn’t know that. It was only right that she opened her eyes to see that she messed up!
