Olivia’s POV:
‘This bitch, who does she think she is?’
Olivia thought as she looked at the result of the small problems she tried to bloom within Catherine’s mermaid members, each one of them not yielding proof, of course Olivia expected it, as someone of Catherine’s status and intelligence would respond swiftly and solve any issue, but what pissed her off is the way she responded after it.
‘Does she think I can’t respond to this?’
After Olivia has learned about the feelings in Austin about Catherine she had started to form some plans to at least annoy the woman away, killing her was almost close to impossible, and even if Olivia did manage to kill Catherine, just one simple problem there or one simple information leak and whole of her Empire will have to face the wrath of the sea.
‘But that doesn’t mean this bitch can try to act however she wants around my lover’
While Austin had given his word that he has no interest in pursuing it and while knowing the amount of possessiveness and love he has towards her, Olivia is still vigilant about this homewrecker that suddenly appeared in her loving life with the one man she had decided to spend the rest of her life with.
As much as she hated to admit it Catherine is a beautiful and amazing woman, her beauty shined beautifully and her presence was one of fun and joy, most men would fall for that easily and while she is sure that Austin won’t fall for such tactics, she aint willing to test it, not when she knows that Catherine is hell-bent on getting Austin.
If Olivia didn’t know the things that Austin and Catherine went through she might have flipped this off as some infatuation that would move away, after all, Catherine is a princess and Austin has already stated to her that he already has a woman, hearing that no one of Catherine’s position will chase after such a man, not if they went through the same shit Catherine has gone through.
Olivia was sure that if she was in such a situation she would never give up on the man, she went through so much with, thus she has extremely vigilance against this mermaid that seems to be playing it cool, while actually planning to take the most precious thing in her life from her.
“Austin, love, I miss you…”
Olivia lightly muttered as she closed her eyes, her mind playing through all the scenarios that she experienced with Austin, never in her life did she expect to find someone like Austin, never did she expect to fall utterly and helplessly in love with her cusion whom she at first though wasn’t much of a man or boy.
‘Hehe…the waves of fate…’
She never expected to find someone like Austin, someone who is deeply and completely in love with her and at the same time managed to completely take control of her body and soul.
‘Its as if he was made for me, my chosen partner~’
She bit her lips as her mind played through all the scenarios where Austin played with her body, his rough hands squeezing her, her hungry eyes devouring her as he roughly handled her body.
“Um~”
A low moan left her as the scene played in her mind, he ticked all her boxes and more, he was her love and in a sense a path of light in her monotone light, for her everything was black and white, everything came easy and nothing other than bringing pain to others brought any sort of light into her mind.
It was her sadistic self that gave her a sense of originality, otherwise everything in her life was monotone, she felt her life was just a boring canvas, ahe just normal among the special and it was Austin who changed it, it was him that changed everything in her life, it was him that made this black and white world of her so colored, now everytime she sleeps, she sleeps to wake up the next day to see Austin, to have him hold her, to whisper his loving words and to fully humiliates her body and mind.
For her by now, unknowingly under the expert control of Austin, she holds Austin at a higher part in her heart than the Empire she would reign in the future, for her he has become a part of her soul and just the thought of him slipping away from her hands, the thought of him being stolen away from her fills her with a dense amount of hate and anger.
Olivia’s eyes opened up, a certain clarity appearing in them, the dilemma she facing being washed away as the value of Austin to her was once again remembered, her hands moved towards another file, holding with a tight gaze as her mind wandered.
‘You want to take my light away? then die trying, bitch…’
Just as she thought so her communication orb trembled, knowing that only specific people had the magic sequence to it, she took it up, her eyes widening in surprise a little seeing the contactor.
“Mother?”
She spoke out in a confused voice, if the truth were to be told, Olivia wasn’t that close to her mother at all, while her mother protected her and never did anything bad, Olivia has always felt a sort of alienation from her as if everything she put on was a display, Olivia already had a conjecture that the cold face her mother put on was to hide her true face, one which was emotionless.
Even then she didn’t hate her mother, for her mother had always been supportive of her, shaking off her thoughts she kept the folder away, and as she activated the orb, the sound of her mother directly flowed towards the topic.
“Olivia, how about getting yourself a fiancee?”
…
Catherine POV:
“So, it’s Olivia….huh?”
Catherine lightly muttered out as she lay happily in her humongous pool, several jaw-dropping mermaids splashing around, right now she was still there in the pool, floating even after 10 minutes has passed since Austin’s departure.
‘I never thought Olivia was this close to Austin, they didn’t seem that close long ago’
Catherine’s mind flashed with several images of the past, even to the gathering at the Seth hunt, where she even felt like there might have been some sort of enmity between Austin and Olivia.
‘She really fooled us all…’
Catherine soon started to misunderstand the situation but it didn’t change the fact that she understood that the one on her path to happiness was another princess, one that won’t be easy to face or to take down.
‘It looks like Austin has made his choice and I am not in it’
Catherine bit her lips in sadness as she thought of it, frustration building up within her but quickly the scenes of everything she went through flashed in her mind, the sounds and calls of their children relishing deep within her, washing away the frustration that had bubbled up.
‘No matter how close she is, she wouldn’t have gone through what I have with him, that’s a single connection that will always be unique to me and him’
Just these thoughts were enough to soothe her, during her time with Austin she got a very good understanding of Austin and even now his actions were only proving how valuable Austin would be to her as a partner, certain thoughts of a true family with him filled her mind, causing a light healthy blush to fill her enchanting face.
As those thoughts flew by, her mind once again started to understand why she only wants Austin in her life, for as long as she can remember, the scenes of what her father had done to her only scared her physique against men, she always had distrust for them, in her heart they were heartless and power-hungry creatures that wouldn’t mind to take anything they love down to get what they want.
Most of her interaction just stuck to women, she had never thought that she would ever even want a man, she had even plans to take one of her confidants and address her as a male to pass off for marriage if it ever came to it or even if she did get married she would have chosen a male she could complete control at the tip of her finger, Catherine’s voice made that possible after all.
But against all odds she met Austin, a man that she had felt curious about for the first time in a long time and from then on things just kept snowballing, she had been with him as his tears of blood flowed when they lost their children, and she had been with him when he became a pillar to her in the despair of her loss.
She had seen that strong side of him and his weak side, and to her, she loved them all, she couldn’t exactly tell when these feelings of hers bloomed but she knew with all her heart that she only wanted Austin in her life, the only man she wants a family with would be Austin.
There might be some problems with her fomring such family but she knew how to deal with them all, she was had barriers and walls in front of her whenever she got out to do anything and she always broke them all to attain what she wanted and this time it would be no different.
‘Should I use my voice on him to increase his feelings?’
Just as she thought this she shook her head, doing that would be spitting on all her feelings and memories of him.
‘I have my advantages and if I use them right, then he would definitely be mine’
Once again her mind started to play off about her perfect family with Austin but then Olivia’s image came to mind, her expression turning sour.
‘I don’t know how many first times of his you took but enjoy them while it lasts for in the end he will only be mine…’
As she thought so her eyes turned dark, the waters she bathed in trembling for a moment.
