"Can we not actually mention Alex? I beg of you I know my mother, she will judge you." I still insisted that Alex didn't tell the truth.

"Alexa, we are family. I don't want to lie to your family. If they had known from the others, the repercussions would have been much more than I now admit. At least I'll be straightforward about who I am to your family." I sighed.

"Trust me I will handle this." We were in front of the library room door. I knocked on the door and opened it.

"Come in and sit down you two," My mother said. While my hands were cold, Alexander and I held hands and sat on the guest sofa in front of Mom and Dad in the library room. It feels like facing a principal's trial if you are found guilty.

"Your grandfather is with Chairman Austenaco and Lord Valerie in Canada. Nobody will know the conversation today. " Mother explained where Grandpa was. Okay, I was a little scared because Mom wanted to talk at home.

Dad took a deep breath before starting. And I hold my breath waiting for the first sentence.

"You two, it looks like your relationship is going well in Paris." We just stared at Dad's first words.

"Dad" I want to start talking.

"Alexa, don't interrupt" I immediately hushed my father's words.

"Okay Alexander, I want to hear what the real story of this case is. She is our daughter, you should know that no parent will be quiet if her daughter is hurt. And you are the one who will accept my daughter from us. Give your explanation for this incident. "

"Mr. Rudolf, I was guilty of not protecting Alexa very well. The one who attacked him was the vampire woman of our clan, she was my female partner before Alexa with jealous motives. T…"

"Madame, not a lover, I have never had a lover. Just a sex partner, sorry if I have to put it that way. But that's the truth. I'm honest with you and Alexa. And I never talked about love to my partner, our relationship was limited to mutual benefits in business and biological friends. Sorry if I was rude. "

Mother is staring, this conversation will be chaotic, I have cut off and emotions in front of the words "partner sex". I disagree with Alex mentioning his girlfriend. Now Mother is half crazy to hear it.

"Alexa you already know?!" Mother looked at me in shock.

"Mom, Madam Joanne explained it to me, and Alexander has been honest with me before. Please, Mom calm down. "

Mother looked at me for a moment before taking a deep breath. But even the next question is one that frightens me.

"You're a powerful person in your world, which means your partner isn't just one. How many sex partners are you?"

Alex is silent. I breathed in frustration.

"Mom, should you ask that?" I'm sorry.

"Do you even know number Alexa?! You know that equals the number of women who want to kill you. Are you thinking clearly or are you blinded by your love now !? You're crazy you can't see such a great danger before your eyes. " Mother quickly grabbed her and her tone rose rapidly.

"How many? Just answer my question!" Mother repeated her question this time standing up.

"Catherine, calm down,"

This time it was the father who pulled the mother who had stood up from her seat. This is really messed up. And I regret not having succeeded in forbidding Alexander to mention those words earlier.

"I can't say the number, Madam, I have outlived you and my position as main son was achieved forty years ago. My position brings many advantages. But right now I only think of Alexa as my only lover, fiancé and future wife. I will protect him from all dangers and it is my responsibility, I promise you as his parents. I once had a child, so I know exactly how you feel about your daughter's safety. " Mother fell silent at Alexander's words.

"You said you would protect him. But she was hurt." Mother's tone is still high.

"I admit that I miscalculated, at that time I was only away for three days, Alexa said she was not going anywhere just going to Pyreness, so I thought it was safe to leave her at Madam Joanne's Mansion. Before I arranged an escort for him on my return. At that time she accidentally met my partner. I didn't expect his attacks to be so fast, she was attacked on the day of my return. You may think I'm making excuses but that's what really happened. "

"Are you still in touch with your partner now?" Mother still urges Alexander.

"No, I didn't betray Alexa." Alexander said with confidence. Well, that's not quite true. But alright, he already apologized about the incident on our engagement day.

"Madame, I don't want my past to burden Alexa. I have opened up who I am, my past, why I am in this position to Alexa completely. I have no intention of covering up anything from him. And I dare to offer him a blood covenant, wherein he can claim my life if I betray him. I love your daughter with all my heart. That's what I can explain clearly to you."

Mother stepped back. Father was silent thinking. There was silence for a moment as they digested Alexander's long sentence.

"And as for the Alexa attacker, right now she won't be able to mess around. Alexa has been protected by my best fighter and Alexa is a fighter too. Attacking a member of the main family carries the death penalty. I will take action after the great war ends, because right now I am avoiding the current internal problems for the sake of our fighting legion. I hope you understand why we did not take any action, even though there is evidence of the culprit. We've talked about this and Alexa wants to learn mind control from Ourinko because she doesn't want to carry out the death penalty for her assailants. " Alexander finally takes over all the talks. I was relieved, at least, that Mother didn't seem to be under her temper anymore when Alexander spoke.

Alexander squeezes my hand. I and him looked at it for a moment. We both smiled a little. Mom and Dad caught our eye. Dad smiled at Mother while shaking his head.
