Mated To My Boyfriend's Dad novel Chapter 102

Chapter 102: _ Let’s Ask The Peculiar

A whiff of annoyance traveled on Aceco’s face as she cradled the injured creature. "It’s not a ’thing,’ Beta Darius," she corrected gently, "but a peculiar. And a cherished pet, I’d wager." Her gaze swept over the creature, her eyes filled with a soft concern that Rhett had seen in someone...

... someone he shouldn’t be thinking about right now.

"We have many such creatures back in the fairy realm," Aceco explained, her voice tiny like a soothing melody. "They’re loyal companions and often serve as messengers between the realms."

Rhett’s mind whirred. A peculiar as a messenger? This was all far more complex than he’d anticipated. Why was Aella’s family searching for it so intently that they fell into the vampire’s hands because of it?

What was so special about it? Perhaps, Aceco could shed more light on that.

"Actually," he blurted out, tilting his head, "I might know the fairy this one belongs to."

Shock registered on Aceco’s face but her surprise quickly morphed into delight. "Truly, Gamma Rhett? That’s wonderful news for the little creature."

"Well," Rhett hesitated, his voice dropping by a notch, "its owners are– kind of missing."

Aceco’s eyes widened. "Missing? How?"

Rhett took a deep breath. "That’s why we’re here, Aceco. It’s the reason we sought your help."

Before Rhett could elaborate further, Beowulf stepped forward. "Perhaps we should head inside now, and you can hear the details there," he suggested and he was right too.

Aceco nodded while her smile faded slightly. "Of course, come in, please. Follow me."

She ushered them through the doorway, and as they stepped inside, a collective gasp escaped their lips. The cabin interior defied logic. Instead of walls and a ceiling, they found themselves surrounded by leafy greenery. There was a cascading waterfall tumbling down a moss-covered hill in the distance. A vibrant blue sky stretched above, dotted with fluffy white clouds. Birdsong filled the air and along with the gentle mist from the waterfall, it created a rainbow that shimmered like a fragmented jewel.

This was like standing on a cliff with a waterfall and not inside some cabin tucked deep inside a secluded area.

T – this was simply golden. This was beautiful! Even Rhett, as nonchalant and aloof as he was couldn’t help but be fascinated.

Rhett, however, knew better. This wasn’t real. It was an illusion, a projection crafted by Aceco’s powerful magic. It was a scenery created as a place where she felt comfortable and in control. This was probably how her abode in the fairy realm seemed like.

But the illusion was so meticulously crafted, so detailed down to the scent of damp earth and the cool breeze that swirled around them, that it felt more real than reality itself. freewёbnoνel-com

To the moon – Aceco was powerful and good.

Yet, how powerful was she? What use was her power if she wouldn’t use it to curb the vampire’s menace and wipe them off the face of the earth for good?

Both the Alpha and Beta also stood speechless. Rhett could see their faces filled with a mixture of awe and wonder. Aceco gestured towards a large, smooth rock nestled amidst the animated landscape. "Please, sit," she offered with a soft voice. "I can heal the Peculiar while we talk."

With gentle and practiced strokes, Aceco ran her hands over the creature’s body. A faint golden light emanated from her fingertips, visibly soothing the Peculiar’s wounds. The creature, which had been whimpering and restless moments ago, relaxed under Aceco’s touch with a low growl emanating from its throat that sounded almost like a purr.
