Chapter 698: Destined Love?

698 Chapter 697-Destined Love?

Angelina, with her breath stuck in her throat, just kept looking around, this new dreamscape being something she can't believe actually exists, her heart beating faster for some reason, while her mind lost a bit of her focus.

'Could there really be such a man?'

She thought to herself, Angelina's eyes soaking everything in, the natural feel of this dreamscape coming to hit her like a ton of bricks as the facts of the situation started to sink in, though Angelina being who she is quickly shook off her current dilemma, just the sight in front of her has placed Austin in her heart in an extremely high position.

Angelina had traveled through numerous realms of dreams, taming and manipulating many dreams to get her power and position within her family up, not to mention she had the eyes that saw through lies. Thus Angelina came to learn the perfect truth that everyone lies, she also learned that she would never find true love too.

She had seen the greedy inside minds and dreams of all men that came her way, their dreams and their lies just going forth to create a repulsion in Angelina's mind, their lust and greed for her plain as day, not to mention the dreams she had seen of theirs, the dream of what they would do to her.

In a part of her life, Angelina had given up on love, she had accepted that there is no good man and that she will never find true love. She had accepted to find a relationship that could bring her benefit, 'cause Angelina knew that even if she came to have an interest in a man, after seeing his dreamscape, after going through the lies the man spouts, she could only come to see the man as a way to increase her position, thus gradually losing sense of her love for the man.

Which is why Angelina lived on, trudging forward in a dark place where everyone would lie to her and live a life of deceit and manipulation, a life of just living without believing that true love can exist, that there is no man that she would find to match her sense of standards.

They might sound naïve and gullible, but the standards that Angelina set for herself were simple yet cute, she wanted a man that wouldn't lie to her, she wanted a man with integrity, his own resolute path, and a man that wouldn't betray her in this dark and weary place. Angelina always laughed at that thought of hers for she knew she was being extremely naïve.

There would never be a man like that, a man that would truly catch her eyes and never lie to her, one she can fully place her heart in and never fear for it to be broke, the thought of that being just empty fantasies Angelina knew could never come to life but that all changed, and it all changed right at this moment.

'Is this destiny?'

Angelina chuckled a bit at those thoughts of hers but even though that thought sounded naïve, somewhere at the end of her heart, a simple flame lit, the idea that perhaps this is destiny filling Angelina's mind, she might never admit it openly but Angelina, the ever-feared succubus, is a very romantic person with a dream for a fantasy-like romance.

And now the situation in front of her is shaping up to be like the fantasy she had dreamed of, the stories of couples starting from simple haters to falling in love, the stories of destiny where the woman met a man, a man she never thought could exist and satisfy her conditions, isn't the scenario for Angelina wrapping up to be something like that?

In fact, everything goes wrong when she meets with Austin, the first fight leading to her loss, creating a certain tension between the two of them, the situation for Austin never having lied to her till now, the path of their challenge, her loss, to the absurd conditions so different from others for her to enter Austin's dreamscape, and now the sight in front of her when she entered his dreamscape.

'It's as if he was made for me, as if we are destined together...'

A small blush came to Angelina's face at that thought, her heart starting to beat faster, while her tail swayed left and right with a great amount of excitement, unknown to her, everything was indeed set to look like destiny, and an invisible Austin floated and watched everything happening with a smile, in the place he is currently a pure god.

That's how it is normally for a person's dreamscape, within their own, they are a supreme god that can do anything, though normally others can access this realm of unconsciousness and Angelina gets a little more control when she first enters this place and the person in question is not accessing the dreamscape but now with full access, Austin can do anything he wants to Angelina.

'Let's make this fun.'

Austin thought, he already subtly leading everything around, slowly including the mind of Angelina into certain thoughts, he knows her better than she knows herself, so he knows her desire for a pure romantic destined love, it's the main reason she had fallen into such despair when her bloodline started to make her do such things in the games past.

'Now let's begin the show shall we?'

With a smirk, Austin started his plan, the world around starting to shift and turn as memory flow started, memories that Austin wants Angelina to see, by the end of it all, she would be shedding tears for him.

.....

Meanwhile, Angelina...

'What's happening?'

Feeling the world shift around Angelina felt a certain shock go through her body, her daydreams bursting like bubbles as she gazed at the scene around, the situation alarming her for a moment.

'Voluntary memory display?'

It's only then that Angelina got a much more grasp of the situation, she doesn't have the total power and control she normally does!

It's as if this whole dreamscape is impervious to Angelina's might and control, which once again settles in some thoughts within Angelina's mind but seeing that it's not dangerous, Angelina let go, her body floating through a stream of memory as it landed in front of a certain memory, the beginning of the scene, the scenes surprisingly being on third person POV as it all began.

'Was this when he was a child?'

The beginning of the story being a gory one, the scene starting with Austin hiding and trembling as a child, the pure fear and sadness running while throughout the dreamscape, affecting Angelina with the pain, the scenes of his father dying trying to protect him, Austin crying over the dead body, the assassin soon being killed by the arriving help and Austin soon fainting from the pain and sadness that filled his entire being.

'This pain!'

Angelina bit her lips as she felt the pain cover over her, a pain a child shouldn't bear, from then on the scenes just kept flowing like picture, the emotions in each of the scene going forth to drill deeper and deeper into Angelina's mind without her knowing, the scene of Austin waking up from his sleep, the tears of despair falling down his face as he hugged upon Mira.

The disdain that could be seen from Nora due to her heartbreak, the hatred and annoyance she gave Austin, along with the guilt of what Austin had done, Angelina kept feeling it all, as if she was living that life, this not being the end, from then on only darkness kept appearing all over Austin, like a family that should have been happy falling apart easily, the sadness taking all over the Lionheart dukedom.

A mother that is drowning in pain, along with his sister, one among whom blamed him for their father's death, a dark and dreary aura surrounding all over the dukedom and she could see Austin absorbing all the darkness as the life around him started to get grayer and grayer, his will to live getting shorter and shorter, the guilt crushing him until Austin made a decision to make a change.

From then on the scene went forth to change completely and the sadness within Angelina for some reason started to bubble forth more and more.

'Why? Why am I feeling so much pain for him?'

Angelina asked herself as the show continued.

...

Meanwhile, Austin...

'Hehehe.....you want a destined love? I will then give you the best!'
