My Personal Lycan King novel Chapter 51

VICTORIA'S POV

The first thing that I did once we went back to the mansion was to change my clothes. And while I was at that, I almost slipped that I wasn't a normal being and was some witch that can make dresses appear out of thin air.

Let me tell you what happened,

"Hey, I'll send some clothes to you, don't worry they'll be new. You can change and come down once you're done. Yeah?" Alexander said once we were in his room before kissing my forehead.

"AHH...don't bother about that. I can always use joy for that. Bringing a dress is nothing more than blowing a spec of dirt for joy." I said casually, before smiling and it wasn't until Carla shouted from inside my brain did I realize I made a slip-up.

"Who's joy? And why would he help you in dressing? First, tell me, how are you acquainted with him and is he here? Is he a werewolf-like me?" Alexander asked as he looked at me with scrutinizing eyes, while his eyes started to have a hint of yellowish tint in them.

'Who is he calling a man! I am a girl and a cute one at that! Tell him that right now, or I am gonna burn his clothes. Don't blame me for making him stand naked in front of the whole crowd then.' Joy exclaimed, more like shrieked from inside my brain, fuming as the cold fire was blazing from inside her again, and Carla jumped out of the couch to save her fur.

Rolling my eyes at her, I looked at Alexander before saying,

"First, she is a girl, and I said that because she is umm..a designer and sells beautiful dresses. And, I forgot, I wasn't back home. She is a friend from there. What were you saying about sending the clothes? Please make sure they are not short dresses." I smiled when his expression finally relaxed.

"Okay, I just don't trust other men around you. Don't take it to heart. You are the most precious possession that I am intending to take care of and cherish, with all I have. Also, come down soon. I want to introduce you to my parents. You haven't met them yet, and I know they are itching to talk to you." Alexander said smilingly before pecking my lips one last time and leaving, closing the door behind him.

'My hubby is so sweet.' Carla said, fangirling at his words, which were ignored by both me and Joy.

'Huh! I need to control my mouth and think before I speak such words again.' I thought before going inside the bathroom to take a quick shower.

After taking the shower and changing into a golden sundress that Alexander must've asked someone to put on the bed, I sat on the bed to relax my muscles, feeling a bit tired.

'His room is not bad. It looks quite decent and is nicely organized.' I thought as I looked around.

Walking around the room as I was just glancing around, my gaze traveled to the nightstand, and I couldn't help but widen my eyes when I saw the photo frame. It was a photo frame for 5 photos, and guess who was in the middle? 

It was me. 

All five places were taken by me. One photo was from when we were on a Ferris wheel, and I was looking towards the horizon. Another one at the party. One from the university prom and one from someplace in the forest, and one was probably taken when I was home. I was lying on the bed in my cute shorts and was smiling at something on my phone.

When did he take these photos? Is he some kind of psycho? Was he always stalking me when I wasn't looking? Was he always in love with me? But why didn't he tell me earlier?

"Victoria? Are you ready? Alexander is looking for you." I heard Katie's voice from outside.

"Yeah. Coming!" I said, placing the photo frame back on the table and taking a last look at his photo that was hung on the wall.

'We wasted a lot of time because of miscommunication and misunderstandings. But now that I've finally gotten a hold of you, I am not gonna leave you, ever.' I promised myself while looking at his image. 

A promise, I was intending to keep as long as I was alive.

Spotting Alexander again was not a hard task since he was swarmed by people. I smiled at him as our gazes accidentally met for a second and couldn't help but feel giddy that this awesome man was mine.  

I haven't gotten a complete hold of this mate thing. But from what I could gather from Carla's rambling, we are destined to be together and are made for each other.

I think this is the best thing that has happened to me since the day I moved here.

Looking behind Alexander, I noticed that familiar man gazing at me from time to time. I don't understand what was his deal. 

'Where have I seen him? Why can't I remember?' I tried to think hard.

Deep in my thoughts, I didn't notice when Alexander came closer to me.

"Victoria? Are you okay, now?" 

"Yeah, I am fine. How is your ceremony going so far?" I asked absentmindedly. My thoughts still on that old uncle.

"It's going good. Here, let me introduce you to my parents. Theodore Roosevelt my father and his mate, my mom Rosaline Roosevelt." He said smiling happily.

However, I was too shocked to react. That weird familiar uncle was Alexander's dad? Wait, what?

Is this some kind of joke?

"He is your dad? From when?" I asked, my stupidity taking over again.

"Uhh..from the moment I was born, and even before that, when I was just a sperm you know," Alexander commented shamelessly, as my face burnt with embarrassment.

"Look at how you are talking. Where are your manners? Don't mind him, sweety. Like father like son." Alexander's mother Rosaline said in a comforting tone as she held my hand excitedly. However, my gaze was fixated on his father only.

"Theodore Roosevelt? Aren't you the one who I asked to-" I stopped mid-sentence when the realization hit me?

"Yes, darling. You are the one, and I must mention, the only one who dared to order an alpha king around." Alexander's father said, with his signature smirk.

'He remembers my face...I am gone...done.. finished.' I thought, closing my eyes at my stupidity. I should've listened to Azrael.

"About that, I...I can explain it." I said, not knowing what else to say when both Alexander and his mother Rosaline were looking at me with that confused suspicious gaze.
