Chapter 4

That night I received a message that shook my entire being from within.

[Victoria: My dearest sister today was just a reminder to never go against me again.

I know very well that you are aware that the bastard you gave birth to is long dead and Austin is my and Alexander’s son.

But don’t worry, just like your daughter Mila, your son’s remains were disposed of too by Alexander himself.].

[Victoria: Alexander was busy playing with Austin so he did had time for proper funeral or to even bury your child in a soil inside the Salvatore mansion, so we decided to just burn the body.]

They… burned my baby like trash?

My fingers trembled as I stared at the phone, a video of a burning pyre played on screen making me fall down as my breathing became haggard.

[Victoria: You are a powerless fool who was born for my convenience. You were not meant to be loved, don’t cross me ever again.]

“How dare you touch my child?!” With bloodshot eyes that were bleeding tears, I rushed to confront Victoria.

“You call yourself a human after committing such atrocious acts!” my voice broke as I screamed like a wounded beast, eyes burning with miserable grief and anger like I couldn’t wait to rip her apart to shreds.

"Oh, my my, a small clip of your dear child and you came running like a headless chicken? How foolish.” Victoria smiled, her eyes full of provocation.

“Human? Ofcouse I am a human, but I can’t say the same thing for you and your children…small pests who were born to be squashed and thrown.”

“You demon! Ahhhh!” I wanted to strangle the woman infront of me yet Victoria took advantage of my fragile state and held my shoulders in a bruising grip, pressing down on my wounds.

“I wanted to show you that I won and you lost everything to me again bitch!" She leaned forward, her eyes glinting with sadistic pleasure.

“Alexander’s one true love is me and you? Do you know why Alexander married you in the first place?"

Because you are fucking convenient! He must have used you like his sex toy.

A thing he released his frustrations and sexual tensions upon, but his heart always lied with me.

You were nothing but a pig born to donate her organs to me when I needed them! Just because you spread your legs for Alexander while I was absent, you forget your filthy identity and even think of conceiving a child with my man!

He could have never loved you!”

I pushed her away looking at Victoria like she was a monster as she said the things I was most afraid of. It was as if I was living a nightmare.

“He married you Amelia because you looked like me.

That’s all you are…a cheap copy of mine."

The more Victoria said those things the more I looked at her calmly, my rage and hatred towards her intensifying as the hidden camera tucked in my shirt recorded everything.

"Do you want to see how much I mean to him?" Victoria smirked before reaching into her luxurious bag, and pulling out a small, hand-knitted sweater-the one I had painstakingly made for my baby in my nine months of difficult pregnancy where my body suffered severely.

“Alexander gave it to me saying that instead of a bastard, it would suit Austin better.

Something inside me snapped as I looked at the small pink cardigan with bloodshot eyes.

“If that was true then you already had Alexander!

What did my innocent children ever did to you?! Even a demon is not as cruel as you to experiment on innocent babies!”

Unknown to me Victoria smiled as she saw Alexander approaching us from behind. She came closer whispering softly.

"Mila’s death was a mistake…an unfortunate incident. But your newborn? That was pure science.

You should have seen him trying to gasp for his last breaths before I cut off his windpipe, his death contributed to my experience. You should be proud-“

Before Victoria could complete her sentence my palm connected with her cheek as I slapped her hard making her fall on the ground with a thud.

“Amelia how can you wish to kill me…I-I was just playing with Austin…”

Before I could understand what was happening a raged scream echoed.

"AMELIA!" The furious roar startled me, sending chills down my spine.

Startled all the servants in the mansion and they rushed to the scene in fear with my mother-in-law in front.

I turned around to see Alexander’s furious figure looming over me as his dark blazing eyes burning holes in my skull in wrath.

A bitter laughter left my lips when I saw Victoria whose eyes flashed with fury that I dared to slap her but soon a fake tremor passed through her body as she shuddered as if my presence threatened her with sobs escaping her lips.

So she would act right?

Too bad that I did not care anymore.
