The Conquerors Path

Chapter 215-The Beginning Of Phase 2

Nora could clearly imagine it, the boy having Austin's cuter look and eyes as he runs to her with his happy smile, the girl a younger copy of hers. She happily laughs and clutches to Austin, a happy family of four as they enjoy their time with each other, they would all laugh and smile, she would then spend the rest of her life with him as she and him both together grew older,

"Can you imagine it?"

The old lady's voice whispered in her ears, breaking her out of her thought as she nodded her head and whispered back,

"Yes"

"How does that make you feel?"

"I feel happy, excited, I feel fulfilled"

Nora spoke with an enchanting smile that would smitten anybody. She couldn't believe how happy she was getting from just an image but her fantasies didn't last for long as the older woman continued,

"Good, now remove it all, go back to the darkness"

Nora didn't refuse as she did the same,

"Now imagine this, the man you love on an altar holding another woman as he happily weds and kisses her"

The words of the woman hit Nora's heart deeply, shaking her, for a moment the very image filled her mind, Austin being lost from her hands as her as he falls in love with another woman, up and till now she hadn't thought of it as her subconscious mind had rejected it, she was even afraid to ask him if he had anybody in his heart.

Plus the factor of not seeing him very close to another woman had caused her mind to forcefully eject the topic out of her but now the very image was brought to her mind, the reality was brutally presented to her as the illusion of safety was ripped apart, Nora felt her heart tighten as her blood become cold and her mind throbt,

"No..."

A painful whisper left her mouth as she felt the strength leave her body, luckily the woman close by had kept her straight as she kept whispering the words that were not in the scrip,

"Relax, if you don't like it just kill the woman and take him for yourself, make sure to make him fall in love with you, keep him by yourself, don't you see it? your desire"

The old woman's whisper traveled through Nora's mind to her heart, smashing heavily against the logic she was sitting in, with strength returning to her. Her mind worked,

'Y-Yeah, I love him, why should I suffer? if I love him then I should make him mine, I don't want him to be taken away from me, I only want him to show his love to me'

Nora's resolve kept getting higher and higher, she opened her closed eyes as she came upon the old woman's kind smile, standing up straight she washed away the last embers of her tears. With grateful eyes, she nodded at the old woman as she spoke,

"Thank you, thanks to you I know my feelings better"

"That's alright, I'm just happy to help"

The older woman smiled amiably, as she waved her hand, Nora smiled as she held her heart once more, right now everything was a mess, her feelings, and emotions were spread everywhere, even now there was a silver covering stopping her from crossing the line that shouldn't but she knew one thing she loved Austin and it pained her greatly to lose hm.

The old woman raised her hands as she held Nora's, for the first time true emotion filled her eyes something that would shock many, holding Nora's hand tight she spoke,

"Child, don't make the mistake that I once did, go after the one you love or become like me regretting it years down the line"

Nora went into a daze for a moment as she looked into the woman's eyes, she felt a sense of comradeship with her. Smiling she nodded her head at her before showing her in the direction of the bathroom and bolting away, meanwhile, the older woman looked at the retreating figure of Nora as her mummers were heard,

"I did my part, though I ended up deflecting a bit from the script, did the child's emotion influence me? looks like I'm getting old"

A hint of smile filled her face as she spoke, she gave a last look at Nora before she walked away, her words lingering in the air,

"I wish you all the luck...child"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nora rushed forth as she reached the room she had left, she took deep breaths before she entered coming upon the sight of the auction which had already begun, a beautiful woman with a thought-inducing seductive dress stood on the stage as she guided the auction with class and elegance. The moment she entered Austin turned towards her with a smile which stiffened for a moment, regaining it quickly,

"Nora, you were gone for some time, did something happen?"

Austin asked, trying his best to hold back the curses that were building up within him, one look at Nora's affection was enough for him to start cursing his luck. Nora didn't notice any of his changes as her mind was set ablaze, she reeled in her beating heart as she spoke with a carefree smile,

"No nothing happened, I just met someone interesting during my walk"

"Oh? who was it?"

Austin asked with a 'curious' look

"Just an elder filled with wisdom"

Nora replied with a hidden smirk, she didn't elaborate on it as she walked towards the chair taking her seat. Austin seeing it didn't question her as he focused back on the auction that kept selling one artifact after another, some even making Nora raise her brows in surprise, soon an hour later it had concluded,

"That was one rough bidding"

Nora spoke to which Austin replied as he turned towards her

"It was"

"So what now? I'm sure that you didn't bring me to the auction to just show me the bidding taking place"

Nora spoke with a mischievous voice but unlike the last time, Austin didn't reply with a snaky response. His face was serious as he peered into Nora, for a few moments his gaze lay fixed on her before which he spoke,

"We are here for revenge"

"Revenge?"

Nora asked with a questionable gaze as an ominous feeling bubbled within her heart. Austin nodded his head he pointed at the place of another glass-covered private area, it was one with someone that had specifically spent some considerable money to purchase very rare healing items, even one that was brought for a huge sum

"Whose there? and against who is this revenge?"

Nora replied her expression becoming cold and aggressive, for Austin to say this there would only be one revenge that she considers incomplete and lost in her heart and Austin didn't disappoint as he replied,

"Revenge for Father"
