War of Mars: Jinks Montreal 4

inside into the lobby to the elevator. He hears Victoria give off soft crying sounds while in the elevator and once reaching the floor sees her take off going into her room slamming the door. He feels like she’s upset about something wonders what it is and sees Tiger scratching Victoria’s door with a paw and meowing sounding upset. He opens the door ajar and allows Tiger to go inside while hearing Victoria crying very loudly in her bedroom which he closes the door quietly to go to the library room to sit down.

  Jinks wound up thinking “Hmm Madisoni and Natasha Novgorod. I’m wondering why they decided to be among the crowd at this time and not communicating to me about Victoria’s well being over the years I raised her.”

  He gets sleepy shuts his eyes to dream of himself facing Lance who speaks “Madisoni has since Victoria started school when she was old enough paid photographers who take the school student pictures to give him a copy of a picture of Victoria. He has called the school she’s in from time to time pretending to be working for you asking about Victoria and her schooling. He’s been calling the penthouse to give details of his life with Natasha while telling the servants who answer the phone not to tell you about the phone calls.”

  He frown hearing that as Lance tells him “Madisoni was doing it for Natasha who has been upset from time to time from not able to have a part in Victoria’s life by her husband’s beliefs. Natasha two months later after Victoria’s birth had a daughter fathered by Madisoni through implantation given the name of Marina and that her parents recently transferred her to Victoria’s school moving to the city. Marina is aware of Victoria has been urged to be friends with Victoria with people’s manipulating.”

  He sighs to speak “I’m asking if Victoria is aware of her mother.” which Lance speaks “Jacqueline in private with Victoria has blabbed that to Victoria from time to time starting when she was ten years old. She has shown pictures and letters of Natasha and Madisoni from the couple she gets in her mailbox in the building with explaining some things about them from time to time including mentioning their daughter Marina to her.”

  Jinks frown speaks asking “Why Jacqueline and the couple are doing that behind my back?” which he sees Lance glare at him cuts his talk as Lance speaks “The reason for that was because of a worded conversation between Jacqueline and you. Jacqueline brought up the subject of informing Victoria of her parentage and why she only has a father. You in response cut her off and said in an angry tone that it was forbidden to talk about in your presence. You have repeatedly said the forbidden remark each time the servants brought it up with an angry tone.”

  He frowns as he recalls the conversations with the servants fresh in his mind and hears Lance add “You said the forbidden remark comment to Victoria when she was ten years old asking you about her mother. You have refused to talk more about the subject whenever she brings it up. Jacqueline heard you what said to Victoria and your daughter getting upset from that and made up her mind to tell Victoria about the past history and do it when your is not around which she has done that.”

  Jinks frowned hearing his father’s words as Lance continued to speak “Victoria being upset was from seeing her mother in the crowd with her mother’s mate there.”

  He sighed and spoke as Lance paused “I really should get over being upset with how Victoria came to exist.”

  He saw his father nod his head and then Lance spoke “There’s a video recording of you mating with Natasha in the elevator that I managed to keep Victoria from seeing by insisting that she’ll view it after you admit to her how she came to exist.”

  Jinks groaned loudly as his father brought a hand to his forehead and forced his eyes shut.

  Jinks woke up in the library room with Willow sitting on his lap that gave off a meow in a worried tone which he looked down to eye the cat that met his eyes with some worried look in them. Groaning he forced Willow off his lap by getting up who didn’t give a complaint and sensed the cat following him as he left the library room to feel compelled to go to the kitchen which he obeyed. He paused seeing Victoria sitting on the bench sideways facing the servants in the kitchen doing their work who looked at him with narrowed eyed looks.

  He groaned a soft sound and spoke “Victoria.”

  Jinks waited as Victoria shifted her position to face him with a frown on her face while still in a sitting position. He went to Victoria to kneel in front of her and took one of her hands feeling it gripped gently while noticing a frown look on her face.

  He spoke “Some things I haven’t been admitting to you until now.”

  He paused seeing her face become more frowning as he continued “You’re aware of Katherine right?”

  He saw Victoria nod her head with expression still on her face.

  Jinks spoke “What I didn’t tell you is that after she passed away I let grief control me for awhile. Robert noticed that and tried to get me to stop which we wound up having an argument I denying the behavior and him insisting I stop it. He wound up walking out and came back once I was better to introduce Samira to me.”

  He paused seeing Victoria didn’t look surprised to hear his words which he continued “I later met your mother Natasha who came here with a sympathy card about Katherine’s passing. I broke down in Natasha’s presence then once I was calmer forced her into the elevator and came onto her sexually. She refused my advances but I used the status as being the Master and her being a believer to submit to me. Natasha didn’t submit whole heartily just allowed me to have my way with her. Then once I was done I took her out of the elevator and told the guards to escort her out while I went back to the penthouse.”

  He paused to see Victoria’s eyes widen a bit before adding “Gustav later pointed out Natasha carrying you status to me and that she had a Builder mate who had beliefs involving the father raises the child with no help from the female or her Builder mate. I wound up raising you after you were born. I haven’t regretted having you in my life for you give me a purpose to live except I do regret how you came to exist hence me not willing to talk about it whenever you bring it up to me.”

  He bowed his head to stare at the floor while cutting off his talk. Jinks sensed Victoria’s mood was acceptance sighed as he sensed her hand released his hand before feeling her hugging him in a tight grip. He gently leaned his head against Victoria’s head as she hugged him. He sighed feeling Victoria stop hugging him to stare at her seeing a frown in her eyes.

  He spoke “I’m told that there’s a recording of your mother and I mating in the elevator that resulted in you.”

  Jinks saw Victoria nod her head with understanding in her eyes as he added “It’s up to you if you want to view the recording. I’m not sure if I can view it myself due to still feeling angry at my behavior of how I treated your mother that created you.”

  Jinks heard a throat clearing noise at his right looked to see Jacqueline with a frown on her face hold up a square object in her hand appearing to hold a shiny round circular object inside it.

  He stared at Jacqueline who spoke “The recording is in this DVD. I acquired it in my mailbox after what happened to Victoria with a note instructing me to give it to your daughter after you admitted how she came to exist for her to view. The TV room has the proper equipment set for the DVD to be viewed on the TV.”

  Jinks looked at Victoria who gave him a frown look which he spoke “Take it Victoria. Go view the recording. Just go see what I told you and maybe it’ll help you understand why I’m angry about it.”

  He saw Victoria nod her head before taking the DVD he assumed from Jacqueline and then with hesitance got up from the bench to gently lean down kissing him on the cheek before walking out of sight. He heard the kitchen doors bang behind him as Victoria left the kitchen. Jinks groaned softly got up from the floor and went to the bench to sit facing the table bowing his head putting his elbows on the table and putting up his hands to bury his face in them. He heard silence from the servants and their motions in the kitchen but sensed them watching him.

/>   He thought to himself “It’s done. I told her. I just hope I’ll get over being angry at myself for how I treated her mother that resulted in her.”

  Jinks heard nothing from Lance assumed that his father was monitoring Victoria viewing the DVD to pay attention to him. He exhaled a breath through his mouth and shut his eyes keeping his face still buried in his hands. Jinks felt a hand touch his left shoulder feeling adult like that gently rubbed the area followed by another hand touching his other shoulder and felt his upper back being massaged by the hands. He forced himself to relax from the hands’ motions on him but kept his face buried in his hands with his eyes shut. He didn’t know how long he sat there having his back touched as he felt himself slowly losing tension from his form from the massage to hear the kitchen doors bang its sound and sensed Victoria in the room. He forced himself to relax as he sensed Victoria sit on the bench next to him as the massage stopped.

  He heard Victoria speak in a soft voice “Dad.”

  Jinks sensed the firm tone in her voice forced his hands away from his face while opening his eyes to look on his right to stare at Victoria sitting next to him while having the servants scattered in the room behind her. He saw her looking serious with it in her
