My Personal Lycan King
Chapter 109 - Book-2 -24 It's Time For Daniel's Secret To Come OutChapter-24
Entering the hall of the mansion, the first thing Jasmine noticed was how beautifully it was decorated.
How were they able to decorate it so nicely within a few hours was something she was really amazed about.
"It's so pretty, no?" Jasmine whispered, looking at Daniel with twinkling eyes, who for some reason was feeling a bit uncomfortable.
Walking beside Daniel, she looked at the men that would come and call him the beta and ask him why had he left the pack two years back.
It was something that has her attention and she wanted to know about it.
"Why does everyone keeps asking you the same question? Why did you leave the pack, Daniel?" Jasmine asked, making Daniel look at her momentarily before he sighed.
Can he really tell her that he left the pack because she was probably decaying and being destroyed, and he had to save her from being seen or found by anybody? Can he tell that?
Thinking that his emotions were quite out of the place from the moment he has entered, he just smiled at her stiffly before excusing himself.
"You go enjoy yourself. I'll be around." Daniel said before leaving her side.
This was the first time he was annoyed by her like this, and it didn't go unnoticed by Jasmine either, who looked at him with a complicated expression before turning away and leaving him alone.
Daniel didn't want to hurt her, but the growing feeling in his chest that something bad was about to happen wasn't leaving his mind, and it didn't help when his heart was beating so fast either.
Looking around, Jasmine spotted the dance floor and couldn't help but feel tempted to go there and dance, however, knowing that daniel won't like it, like yesterday at Damien's birthday party and he was already in a bad mood, she gave up the idea while going towards the food aisle.
"Victoria? Is that you?" She suddenly heard from her behind.
Knowing that it's probably someone who has mistaken her for Victoria again, she rolled her eyes before stuffing her mouth angrily with food.
"Come on, I know what I did was wrong, but at least don't ignore me. You know that I did all of that because I loved you." Robert said, a bit awkward that she wasn't turning and talking to him.
Hearing the L word, Jasmine squinted her brows, 'Just how many suitors did this girl really had?' She thought in her mind before shrugging.
"Oh come on, Victoria-" Robert said, placing his hand on her shoulder and turning her around.
However, when he looked at her face, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Geez! What the hell did you do to your hair? Is this a new trend you've been following or something? And why do you-" His words were cut short when Theodore placed his palm on Robert's mouth to stop him from blabbering.
Quirking her brows, she looked at Theodore quizzically before resuming her eating, more food at once this time.
"Father, why did you-" Robert started but was cut off by Theodore again.
"She isn't Victoria. She is just a replica of her. And don't spout anything so casually around her. She just looks like Victoria, but her temper is even worse than Damien." Theodore said, confusing Robert more than he already was.
"Not Victoria? Then who is she? And what is she doing here? Has Damien already met her?" Robert asked, making Theodore nod his head in reply.
"In fact, he is the one to bring her here. Maybe he just wants to fill the void in his heart with her. I am not sure.
Also, she is called Jasmine. I don't know if she is a human or not, but she is definitely not a wolf. There is no wolf scent on her, neither the signs of being lantern, like Victoria had when she was hiding her wolf." Theodore explained further.
"Jasmine, you say?"Robert asked with a quirked smile on his face.
He didn't know if it was just his illusion or what, but when Jasmine had turned around to look at him, he felt like he saw something like recognition in her eyes before it was replaced by confusion and anonymity.
"Where are you going?" Theodore asked Robert when he saw him going back to where Jasmine was busy filling her mouth like there was no tomorrow.
"I am going to apologize to her for my rude behavior." Robert paused and sighed when Theodore gave him 'the look', "don't worry, dad, I am not gonna force any information on her or anything." He completed before turning once again, however as he was about to walk again, his eyes landed on Daniel, and he immediately stopped dead in his tracks.
"Dad?" He called Theodore, who was talking to someone now.
"Excuse me, please enjoy the party." He said to his guest before turning around, "Yes, Robert, what is it?" Theodore asked, his attention on Robert now.
"When did Daniel came back?" Robert asked, sipping on the drink that he picked up from the waiter.
"Well, it's a long story. Actually, this girl Jasmine had been living under Daniel's care in a pack around a thousand kilometers away." Theodore said nonchalantly.
"Under Daniel's care? That sounds suspicious." Robert said before keeping his glass on the side table and starting to walk to where Jasmine was.
"Jasmine, I am sorry. I didn't know who you were, and I mistook you for my lost love Victoria. I am so sorry." Robert said, getting close to Jasmine.
"Your long-lost love? Wasn't Victoria Damien's mate and queen?" Jasmine asked with scurried brows.
"Well, what can I say. To be honest, I am glad she is out of my brother's life. Be he, my stepbrother only, but I love him nonetheless. And she was toxic for him." Robert said with cunning going in his eyes.
"Toxic for him?" Jasmine asked though the underlying hint of anger in her voice was enough for him to continue what he was doing.
"Yes. She was a disgrace as a queen. Everyone knows her as the queen, Damien's mate, but she had many affairs out there. Look at me, I am the living example of that. I was smitten by her, and she never made any move to set me free from this love.
In fact, it was her, who saved my life when I was about to be killed by the alpha king because of some sin I committed. Leave that, you know Daniel, your friend, don't you?
Ask him, if he knew Victoria or not. Ask him who was the person for whom he left the pack two years back. I am sure he will hesitate to tell you. Rumors were going around that he eloped with Victoria." Robert said, sowing the discord in her brain.
"Daniel knew Victoria?" Jasmine asked while looking towards Daniel, who was talking to someone not too far away from her.
"Of course. He loved her like a mad man. He was so in love with her that he was ready to betray his people and Damien for her. She was the reason why Damien started hating Daniel, his best friend in the first place. I heard you know him from not long ago. Ask yourself how did you meet him and why did he save you." Robert said, smiling when he saw her getting dazed.
Jasmine? Jasmine is just an illusion. He knew she was Victoria. Maybe she has lost her memories or something, but she can't be any other person.
He remembered when he was a kid and Victoria had saved his life. At that time, he had played twenty questions with Victoria to pass time. However, he had asked Victoria more than twenty questions that lasted forever, that if she was given a chance to change her name from Victoria to something else, what name would she choose.
And in reply to his question, she had said that she would keep her name Jasmine because she loved Jasmine flowers.
If what he was thinking was right, then this person was none other than Victoria. Victoria, keeping a disguise for God knows what.
'Also, I think it's high time Daniel's secrets come out. It's high time he tells everyone the truth. The truth about his affection towards Victoria.' Robert thought before smiling cunningly.
