His Witch Queen-Chapter 178: Break the Marriage!?

The day proceeded and Cyrus was in their chamber. In the await of his wife, he was looking at the beautiful sky. While slight emotions flooded too, he had no such rush to explain them.

Recalling how his beautiful wife had actually lifted the vase, was still sending him in a dilemma. It wasn’t an easy task.

Most importantly, it required a lot of courage. She wasn’t simple and he panted in a different way. ’Maybe she was given some powers from the Gods?’ He made various assumptions

Yet those assumptions will be verified when Alice returns and tells him the truth.

The conversation between her father and her was important, Cyrus thought.

At the same time, his alerted ears hear the sound of the steps. Without even knowing, the answer was clear.

But then, a small smirk curved on his face. "Why are you taking such small steps?" Cyrus raised his voice without turning around.

"How did you know that it was me?" Alice inquired, who was also not believing. Just her presence made him realize that it’s her?

In return to her question, Cyrus turned around. He saw into her direction with the narrowed glint. "I know because you are my wife. Is that enough?" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Alice stayed silent. She pursed her lips into a straight line, showing her nervousness. Her mind currently battled with the hundreds of negative thoughts.

’What will he do when I tell him?’

’What will be his reaction to this?’ Alice’s stomach bubbled with anxiety.

But Cyrus measured it. He saw how hesitant she appeared to him right now. Without any further delay, Cyrus walked into her direction.

While keeping his expressions neutral and nor displaying any curiosity, Cyrus was still able to continue, "You talked with your father?"

Alice nodded.

"Do you have answers to everything you wanted?" Cyrus questioned.

"M-Majority."

"Good. So, are you comfortable sharing it with me?" Hearing this, Alice’s eyes bulged. Despite showing her innocence, she never imagined him openly asking for permission.

’Isn’t he too willing to know?’ Now, Alice became doubtful. Did her status not matter to him as much as she considered?

But while Alice wasn’t sure, Cyrus easily occupied her thoughts. He read her soul. "Alice, I wish to know. But it’s on you. If you are fine with sharing then, do it. But if you find that you might need some more time, then do let me know."

His sweet permission melted her heart. It sends a relief vibration to her brain. How easily he entertained her anxiety was still commendable in her eyes.

"I-I understand. But I would like to share it with you." Alice’s honest reply made his brows lift.

He became more attentive than ever. The urges to know rapidly grew positive. At this point, his mind was now totally deviated in her direction.

"So, from where did these powers come to you? How are you so powerful?" Cyrus started the chat.

As expected, Alice’s hands tangled with each other. She took a deep breath and then again lifted her brown eyes, "That’s what I got because I was cursed..."

"Cursed?"

"Yes, cursed. I’m not an ordinary woman. I-I have a different identity." Alice’s words were like a warm liquid.

Cyrus had started to turn slightly cautious, ready for something he wasn’t expecting, "Like?"

"I’m a witch."

Silence...

Silence...

Silence...

"W-what..?" Cyrus’s mumble was hard to let go off. At this point Alice’s heart trumped against her chest. She knew she was ready to explode and reading his expressions turned hard.

"Listen, I know this is tough. But I’m not any witch from hereditary! It’s all because of that curse!" Alice’s explanation turned numb to Cyrus’s ears.

He took a few steps back, without tearing those starry gazes from her face, "M-My wife... is a witch? Like those witches who kill people around? They are burnt by the local people!!"

"H-how.. come.. you..No!" Cyrus denied to believe such a rumor. He found every word out of her mouth to be filled with absolute nonsense.

To this, Alice knew she needed to be handful with each sentence. She can’t settle any down and let the misunderstanding constitute between the two, "Cyrus... it wasn’t in my hand either. It all started when I was in my mum’s stomach..."

Alice narrated the entire tale. In the middle, she was obvious to the fact that he zoomed out due to the amount of shock. His expressions were the most changing factor.

Due to his body language, Alice had started to feel her heart getting heavy.

After she was done, she took a deep breath. ’This was handed..’ but she didn’t realize that the real task to confront was yet to begin

Alice lifted her face, facing him directly. "You are shocked. You should be, Cyrus. I was shocked too when my father told me. But... it wasn’t in my hand either."

"I was born like this.." Alice summed up, to find no trace of sentiments in those two eyes. His lifted brows were the last thing. The more she tried to find it, the more complicated it turned out to be.

As Cyrus hadn’t said even a signal word, this grew Alice extremely worried. ’I can’t talk with him on this...’ probably hearing anything out of his mouth might break her heart.

However, her father’s words played like a reel in her mind. His wise words told her the reality. She wasn’t any fool and neither did she compromise.

But saying those words on his face was difficult, especially after the type of reaction he gave.

Muted awkward silence.

As these thoughts clashed in her brain, Alice took a deep breath to calm the anxiety under her nerves to finally say, "A-Alice.. I know, probably you just hate me now."

"I won’t blame you either. This is something very serious. Living with me is only possible when you completely accept me. So-"

Alice’s breath galted. Her heart raced but those gaze didn’t fall off, "If you wish to say, please do so. But if you wish to discontinue this marriage then..."
