POSSESSION: The Hidden Omega In All Alphas' Academy [BL]-Chapter 166: His Written Destiny
Chapter 166: Chapter 166: His Written Destiny
[FLASHBACK: 13 Years Ago]
Before Mr. Clark could figure out where Zenith was suddenly running off to, without wasting a second anymore Zenith sprinted to reach Vanessa who was quite far ahead from him by now, walking behind Dolemort.
The cold menacing voice that echoed in his ears about awakening a gifted ability inside his small body had made Zenith feel a surge of liberty from the fear of his father that had consumed his innocent soul until now.
Since the mountain shrine was located at a very high altitude, all those people climbed high, steep stairs to head inside the temple. A little behind him, Vanessa was also about to reach the entrance arch of the shrine where Dolemort had already arrived.
But before she could was about to finish climbing up, suddenly Zenith ran towards and pulled the lace of her gown from behind with a fierce yank! Just like that echo had stated inside his ears, his grip had become so strong that her entire body stumbled backward to fall down those stairs, just from one simple pull!
"AAAEEEKKKK!!"
Before falling by the back of her head, the last sight Vanessa had witnessed was a vicious smug carved on Zenith’s small pale face, which was shortly followed by her ear-piercing scream! The back of her head was split open from the crash, and rolling down the stairs, her belly had hit the stair edges almost more than 100 times!
Her fall was so abrupt that no one around them had witnessed it clearly, except Mr. Clark who was frozen from the sight! Covered in a pool of blood, her body was bruised blue when she rolled down the stairs to hit the ground, with her forehead split open, soaking her face with blood dripping down!
Immediately after hearing the scream, Dolemort was shocked and terrified at the sight of Vanessa’s bloodied body rolling down the stairs, as he rushed down towards her as fast as he could! Upon reaching her, he held her unconscious body tight in his embrace and shrieked in panic, "DOCTOR! BRING A DOCTOR HERE QUICK! I CAN’T LOSE MY CHILD! SOMEONE HELP HER, HURRY UP!!"
The scenery of Dolemort shrieking from harrowing dread gave a strange solace inside Zenith’s wrecked heart, as he quietly stared at them from the distance. He was certain that Vanessa had seen him pulling her gown from behind before falling down, but he stood there completely fearless, with a small smirk curving his lips.
As much as he was enjoying the sight of watching his father grieve, a part of his wounded heart was breaking into shreds when he realized the unfair treatment his poor mother had to face even after her death. While Zenith was crying his heart out, hugging Zorina’s cold body the next morning, Dolemort only stood there completely speechless, without bothering to show any emotion towards the woman who had loved him sincerely throughout her life.
But now, holding Vanessa’s blood-soaked body in his embrace, Dolemort was massaging her abdomen deliberately as if he was applying his healing powers on her, fearing what if that massive fall had already impacted their unborn child’s life!
Within a few minutes, the prayer meeting was suspended when Vanessa was hurriedly taken to the hospital by Dolemort without a second delay anymore. While all those people around him were panicking from the unforeseen mishap, Zenith stood there very calmly, without showing any uneasiness written on his face.
"Young...Master?" Mr. Clark didn’t leave Zenith’s side and stayed there while the crowd was taking Vanessa away. But his eyes had a tint of fear and disbelief towards Zenith, when he urged in a scared low murmur, "Please...be honest with me. W-Was it you?" ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"Yes." The child who was crying and whining painfully until a few minutes ago seemed to have disappeared, as little Zenith sounded very calm from his dangerous confession.
As if along with that voice that echoed in his mind a moment ago, he had stopped feeling overwhelmingly scared of Dolemort, which made Zenith answer him bluntly, "I wanted to kill her and with that intention I pulled her from behind, knowing that she would face fatal injuries. It looks like she’s not dead yet...but the baby inside her must’ve died already from the fall, right, Mr. Clark?"
"Y-Young Master! What did you do!?" Even though Mr. Clark had witnessed him committing that heinous deed, he still barely hoped to hear it was a mistake from Zenith’s end. But now learning that he had done it intentionally, his voice choked from fear when Mr. Clark knelt down before Zenith while whispering to him.
"Do you have any idea what your father might do if he learns about this, Young Master? Why did you do such a bad thing—"
"I am not afraid anymore. Regarding whatever punishment I will receive, now I felt happy to watch Dad cry." Strangely sounding very mature from his answer, Zenith held a cryptic smile, as if his voice implied that he truly wasn’t scared of anything anymore. "He didn’t shed one tear for my Mom...and called her drug-addict. The least I could do was kill this child...because I want him to have no heir except me. It was my Mommy’s wish to make me a big brother, and now I won’t allow this opportunity to anyone else...not even to that woman."
"Young Master, this is a bad thinking! You shouldn’t process such devilish intentions—"
"I am willing to be a devil, Mr. Clark. I will go as far as I can to watch him cry...and...that’s the least, I can do for my Mommy... That woman was my first prey...and I will go crazier than this..."
Clenching his small fists tight, Zenith’s voice shivered a little when he proclaimed those words without a flinch. His dark onyx eyes appeared menacingly scary, giving off a bad omen which Mr. Clark couldn’t ignore anymore.
All of a sudden, as if something inside him had broken completely, his vulnerable helpless childish self was gone and in front of him, the small Zenith who stood had an eerie aura around him, which couldn’t help but scared Mr. Clark, as he was giving off a domineering Alpha attitude.
With a gulp, Mr. Clark couldn’t hold onto him anymore and asking Zenith to wait there for him, Mr. Clark quickly head ahead to check on the necessary arrangements which were made for Vanessa to take her to the hospital. While running away, his heart thumped faster from disbelief to watch his innocent Master had taken the first step to commit something horrifying, for the sake of getting his revenge! Zenith was still very young, and he couldn’t understand what did trigger him inside to take such a bold step since he was aware, Zenith was scared of Dolemort.
But right now, he didn’t seem scared of anything anymore...as if he had reached the rock bottom after losing his everything already.
While little Zenith stood there watching Mr. Clark leave, the monk slowly approached him with steady steps from behind, and wrapped his arm around Zenith’s shoulder from behind with a gentle tap, "My child, since everyone has left now, do you want to come inside the shrine and pray to Holy Mother?"
Until now Zenith stood still like a frozen doll, but hearing a voice with so much of warmth in it made him lift his glance up at that monk’s face. He retained a kind, serene smile on his face, and just from his touch Zenith started to feel weak all of a sudden, as the fiery rage burning inside his heart started to feel a little solace.
"Who are you?"
Furrowing his brows, when Zenith asked him in a shaky murmur, the monk smiled widely at him, "I have seen everything, my child. You did cause the accident to that woman, didn’t you?"
"Yes...I did!" Zenith’s voice suddenly trembled with a feeling of guilt when he gritted his jaws, glaring at the monk with tearful eyes, "I wanted to kill her! I am a bad child! So, why are you asking me to come to the temple? I won’t go there and pray until you give me back my Mommy first!"
The serene smile on that monk’s face tainted a little as he knelt in front of Zenith, gazing at him with his compassionate eyes. As if his eyes could see through the immense despair that pitiful child was harboring inside, he patted Zenith’s soft silver hair when he spoke, "I know you’re a bad child. You’re just broken from inside, and I can understand why did you do it. But, I won’t appreciate your deed, my child."
"Then just...leave me alone...otherwise...give me my Mommy back..."
Zenith’s voice shivered hard as tears started to stream down his dark eyes, making him gasp, lowering those remorseful dark eyes from him. However, the monk didn’t utter any condemning words to him, and with a few gentle tap on his head, he boldly urged.
"I am sorry, I can’t bring your Mother back, my child. But I can assure you a promise...one day...your Mother will send someone who will bring you back here...and you’ll finish the remaining prayer then."
"M-Mommy will...send someone for me? Really?"
Blinking with disbelief, when his voice shivered a little, the monk radiantly smiled at him with a tender assurance, "Mark my words. The person will be the guiding light of the dark tunnel of your life... Because you are his written destiny..."
