Clentine:
"Why did you bring here?"
I heard Mrs. Fiona speak to her daughter, who was taking her out into the dark garden to have a conversation with us. She must have not told her the real reason why she was bringing her here.
I guessed it was okay this way.
It was just Haiden and waiting for her. Troy and Yorick walked out of that hall and then never returned. And once we were leaving for the Royal Garden, I did see them briefly standing next to one of the cars and having a conversation.
I’m not sure if they saw us or not because it had been two hours now. So I didn’t know what they were doing there.
However, after two hours of great pain standing in the sa hall with all the people I didn’t like, Haiden and I finally walked out when the party was over.
We made it seem like we were going after Yorick and Troy because our bracelets were indicating that they had gone too far, which was a lie. But my father didn’t know the truth about the whole details of the bracelet. So he just believed it, and obviously, it must have not even occurred to him that we were on to sothing.
Now we were standing behind a big tree waiting for Mrs. Fiona to co into view. The minute we stepped out, she gasped and stepped back.
"What are they doing here?"
I guessed she already knew it was too odd for crusaders to have a confrontation with her behind a big tree.
"Lydia, why are they here? Why did you bring here? What did you say to them?"
Her mother instantly turned to hold her hands and started shaking her.
"Mom, please listen to . They will help us, I promise."
As soon as Lydia said that, her mother raised her hand to hit her on the back of her head.
"You fool, did you tell her about her father’s demands? Are you crazy? This is Clentine. Did you not see her grow up among us? Her father would not care about what she wants to say." As Mrs. Fiona started to explain to her daughter that it was a bad idea to trust , Haiden began to grow impatient.
"Excuse , you’re telling your daughter to quit trying to save her dignity? She does not want to sleep with that old filthy man and she doesn’t have to," Haiden scread at her, and she instantly went silent.
Of course, she could not argue with soone as big of a person as Haiden.
"Your Highness, I respect you as a crusader, but please don’t expect to believe that any of you would be able to help us," she uttered, trying to remind us what a ssed-up man my father could be. And also that he had a lot of influence to control their lives.
"Why? Is that what you told yourself when he did the sa to my mother and my sister?" The minute Haiden said that, Mrs. Fiona’s eyes started to narrow at his face. Almost like she was trying to grasp his words and understand what he was saying.
"I didn’t get you. Why would you say that?" Mrs. Fiona asked Haiden, who placed his hands on his waist while narrowing his eyes, still staring directly at her.
"I’m Alpha Haiden of Magical Fangs Pack," he repeated his introduction clearly this ti, as if she had only now truly seen him, until her eyes grew wide. Then she put both her hands over her mouth and gasped, recognizing him.
"I need to go." As she turned around, I grabbed her arm.
I noticed Lydia instantly trying to co to her mother’s defense, but I showed her my palm and asked her to stay back.
"Lydia, you may go inside," I said to her, but the look on her face made feel so bad for her. She was worried for her mother.
"Don’t worry, Lydia. I gave you my word. Nothing will happen to your mother," I said, and she began to nod and turn around to leave.
Her mother could not even get out of my grasp. She could not move her arm. They had all underestimated my strength. Just because I looked timid, they thought I couldn’t do anything for myself.
"Now answer his questions."
I pushed her toward Haiden and then stepped behind her, making sure she didn’t try to run away again.
"There is nothing to answer. I did not do anything," she instantly started yapping. "And it wasn’t the first ti your father had brought in soone. He had done it to so many won, and we could not do anything. He would have killed us. We weren’t the only ones who knew about it. In fact, I tried to feed your sister food—"
The minute Mrs. Fiona admitted that she knew what Haiden’s angry gaze was about, Haiden’s hand slowly slipped off his waist.
"You knew my sister?" he asked her, his eyes instantly turning red from the tears in them.
"I rember that night vividly when he brought her in. She was all naked on his shoulder. Everybody stole eyes, but the Alpha was so shaless he did not care. She was trying her best to hide herself, but he just tossed her onto the ground and then called for to prepare her for the night." She started explaining the humiliation my father had caused this woman, and I began to hug myself, feeling disgusted. I could only imagine how Haiden was feeling.
"I helped her cover her body, but it was Alpha’s order that she should not be covered. That she should walk around the whole back house completely naked. Only when his mate, his two daughters were around, she was not supposed to co into view. But since they were always on the top floor, your sister was..."
She covered her mouth again as she began to sob.
I noticed Haiden’s face clenching. He looked so red from anger, and honestly, I was too. But I was also ashad to be part of such a bloodline.
"Where is my sister now?" he demanded.
"After one week of imnse torture and humiliation for your sister, one day the Alpha announced that she had died during the hard session. He then tossed her body away as if it was nothing," Mrs. Fiona confird her death, and with that, the last hope Haiden had of ever reconnecting with his family.
