Chapter 36: Beyond Beliefs
Wisteria's POV
The tension between these two men never seize to go down everytime they met but that doesn't matter for now. I need answers about just everything I'm losing grasp to.
Even if I had to take it all at once to the hardest but it's better to know everything than I looked like a dumb just laying easy not knowing I'll die soon.
I continued to stare between the two men from my seat waiting them take me serious. I realized these two men are keeping this to themselves for they didn't want to see me struggling but I'll keep on struggling till I'm still alive because we are alive that's how God made us to be to ready ourselves going into paradise and besides I'm not that kind of person that has to be left behind to be protected knowing about nothing to guard myself.
I'm ready to take on things calmly just like how I managed with the sudden changes around the house and the truth about my memories got wavering between the two twins, Samuel and Riguel then about the contract with Fryxell then he turned out to be that he was a vampire that only wants my 'Demi Blood' which I still don't understand, As well as my encounterments together in a dark space with fast development with Sylar and that in instant I have accepted him into my house after all he have done to us.
Only about my parent's... between both of my Real Mother and Mama. I even didn't know that the mother I knew wasn't the real one and someone I never get to meet this was the only thing that had made me weak feeling that they have deceived me, I could still forgive father getting me into a contract of marriage together with Fryxell but not letting me know about my real past and real mother that had long gone dead existed not hiding from me by replacing with another woman to stand up as my mother.
I looked down as my tears came to fall down again from my cheeks and my whole body trebled again with that thought. I couldn't control myself with the sudden void marked for my real mother.
"I just want to have enough authority with my own life but why it sounds like other people know me better than myself" the voice of my head leaked out from my mouth with a whisper.
"My... lady..." I heard Sylar called out for me with a sympathetic tone and in the corner of my eye I saw his hand reaching for mine but I moved my hand away.
"I'm fine... just... explain" I said between pauses to preventing to leak out a cracked voice from my sore throat because of crying earlier.
I heard him sighed. "What do you want to know?" he asked me on a very gentle voice.
"Everything" I simply answered without looking at them not knowing what their reactions may look like.
"Then let's start off with this one, I'll explain about the contract together with that Fryxell for it may turn out clear for you" Riguel started that made me look up at him but he had a frown on his face looking away from a different direction.
"You know that your family actually has a lot of money and enough to pay Fryxell household but..." He stops and looks at me with a concern look.
"He choose the opportunity for making him marry you..." He explained.
"But why then?" I exclaimed with the desire to know further more about it, I know we had enough money because of my household still runs properly without kicking any maids out of the masion budgeting the last of the possible capital left but no it's functioning very well. The only thing that keeps the thought paying the debt to Fryxell using money would be useless for contracts are absolute for households leaving me no choice to pick one of the events written down on the contract.
"But why he had to sacrifice me as a payment for a debt that we can pay them, even after the preparations of the wedding Elijah ending up as a vampire wanting to kill me" I revolted.
Then Riguel answers me. "To continue the bloodline of the Cleirigh..." that made my mouth open agape in shock.
That was the only reason? To continue the bloodline of the Cleirigh Household? Maybe my mother told about something just like on the letter.
"You father knew that you don't have enough time to live and the Cleirigh family must live on with another life coming into life even it has to be at young age even that you were supposed to be married at 15 he choose 4 years later to enjoy your life better than the previous girls that has lived before including your mother.." Riguel said with a grim face and looks away again.
I looked down and clenched my hands, I was right but he chose later on to have me gave birth right away after I got married that's what I thought my father came up for the best for me.
I almost outburst my anger towards him for hiding the fact about my real mother but I think he also did that for my own, for I can't feel I've lost something, like he the way he must felt when he lost my mother.
"Like your mother said in the letter, you have 20 years to live.... Your mother, grandmother and more of your ancestors including your idol Lily had to marry, give birth at early age for you don't have much time left on earth" He explained.
"What makes us like this then? Why do we have a specific time to live and die after is it really a curse?" I assumed like in the letter said but I really got a hunch it was something else still looking at Riguel but Sykar came in to talk making me look st him.
"You can consider it as a curse... Just like we have read on the Liefde voor Bloed about us vampires but it also isn't a curse as well" Sylar answered.
"What do you mean?" I asked Sylar, confused.
"Remember what we said about you being a Demi Blood?" Riguel interrupted.
Again... about the Demi blood what's different from me rather than being a human being? Nothings different from me.
"Yes... I remember" I answered.
"Your origins are still unknown but it is clear that you family line is only a half human by all accounts from your own ancestors" Riguel said.
"And the rare purple eyes of yours is a proof of it" he continued.
Now my eyes are connected to the mystery about being a demi blood? but yes... It's kinda different with other people with hue of brown, green and blue human eyes I've encountered but there's nothing more except to this eyes.
"I don't have anything different from me only this eyes and turning into weaker person every year passed, what's so special about it?" I asked getting impatient, I gave them an exasperating glare.
"That's all I know Lady Wisteria" But he gave a glance towards Sylar who is still remaining silent afterall of Riguel's explainations then he came near me who stood right in front of me blocking Sylar from my sight.
"That pest vampire knows most of the information you still don't know-..." Riguel whispering towards me with a hand covering his mouth in the mid air with a silly face when he said something about Sylar but then was cut by Sylar saying.
"I can hear you, you know" Sylar said sounded like he got irritate by Riguel that just turned at with for a quick glance.
I can't help to let out a tiny chuckle between these two it's clearly Riguel teases Sylar for a small entertainment for all of this drama.
Then he turned around towards me once again with a worried look that turned into a small smile. "But I guess he wouldn't tell the details to you with me in here, you know both of us are enemies of our own nature but for your sake we choose not to stand each others ways" Riguel said with his unreadable look again then he leaned towards my head and gave a feathery kiss on my forehead.
When he stood up he suddenly pulled me up to give me a hug, I immediately full heartedly hugged him back with a smile in return but as we did, I saw Sylar from leaning Riguel's shoulder. That he looks like something is bothering him while looking away from us.
I pulled away from the hug then looked up towards him with a smile. "Thank you my Riri" I gave my gratitude towards Riguel that seemingly turned into a flustered face then he nodded like a woodpecker bird as a response and fastly walking out of the room.
When I was about to turn towards Sylar, I felt a tight arms wrapping me.
"Sylar-?!" I was about to say something but I was shocked by what he said.
"I'm jealous..." He said straightforward in a sad and irritated tone.
