Julian’s words threw her into a sea of confusion, and she couldn’t help it.
Lady Nina wouldn’t do such a thing. The words she heard about the Lycan king’s lady since her arrival were good ones. She was
too good to stoop so low.
“Why would she want to kill me? I have done nothing to her.” She said in a small, confused voice.
“That’s not how she sees it. She blamed you when I ended things with her. I never thought she would go this far just to retaliate.
Ted confessed she had approached him when I sent for relief for Grandfield. She gave him orders to follow. He was to kill you
and make it seem like the rebels had done it. That way, there would be no way to trace it back to them. I think Nina believed that
killing you would return my affection for her. You got caught in all of this because of me, and for that, I am sorry. His head
dropped remorsefully.
Fiona had thought Nina was kind, generous, and always had good intentions for people. She never thought she would let
jealousy drive her to the point of taking another’s life without a cause.
From everything the Lycan king just told her, she did. She had sent Ted over to Grandfield to kill her.
The impact of the blow you suffered had already done havoc on your system, and the reason you survived was because of your
powers. Marion, however, isn’t sure you will be able to use your healing abilities as effectively as before.”
Her heart clenched in her chest at the revelation he just told her. If she couldn’t use her abilities as effectively as before, it meant
she may not be able to help heal the Lycan king of his curse.
She shook her head, and once again, her eyes blurred up. “No.”
The thought of not being able to help him or the people as she used to hurt more than death. “That can’t be true.” She reached
for him, ignoring how weak he was and the pain she felt. She took hold of his hand, but she felt nothing.
Tears ran down her face, and she let go and turned away from him to mourn her

The final day of the trial was set, and Ted didn’t stand alone on trial: Nina stood as

well. Ted had allegations brought up against him, and this trial helped uncover the many atrocities he had committed in the past.
All were levied against him. Unlike Ted, Nina only had this attempt against her, but judging by how gruesome and cruel it was,
they had no form of escape.
The council sentenced Ted to death and Nina to life in the dungeon.
Their sentencing didn’t change what happened to her. Ted’s death wouldn’t make her forget, but she took solace in knowing that
she had two less evil to worry
Julian gave her orders to see her sons and removed the restraint on visitation. It meant that she could sleep over at their place,
and they could sleep over at her place when they came visiting. With her powers almost gone, she couldn’t return to the
settlement and finish up her assignment with those having the plague. Nina stole that chance from the people she claimed to
love when she gave orders to have her killed.
She didn’t know what that meant for her and her children. The promise was that she would heal this world of the plague, and
then the Lycan king would release her and her boys. She couldn’t fulfil her part anymore after what had happened, and she didn’t
know what that meant.
She had stayed at the estate for a few days, recovering and being around her sons. They were the only cheerful things that
happened during these horrible times. They were not happy to find her hurt, and June didn’t believe her when she said she was
fine. She didn’t look fine, and he could see that. She then assured him she would be fine in time.
The doorbell went off, and Bella raced to the door to open it. She soon returned to the room with guests behind her.
“Sky!” She glanced up and found her colleagues from the settlement in her room.
Marion, Jose, Gia, and five others whose names she had forgotten
Her eyes widened, and she covered her mouth in surprise. Their visitation was the last thing she expected to see; nevertheless,
she was grateful for it.
“You came to visit me. Is this real?” she asked.
“We came to see you because we missed you, and we wanted to show our support to you,” Marion answered, and they all
spread around the room.
She knew she couldn’t return to the settlement, but she wanted to. The people she
Chipth: 11
had worked with since coming to the estate were all there, but she knew what that meant. Going there would mean finding the
expectant eyes of those with the plague. They knew her and would want her to help them, but she wouldn’t be able to. So, she
chose to stay back, even though that decision saddened her.
Her smile remained, and she asked them what they would want to have as refreshments. She didn’t know what the mansion
had, as she hadn’t been to the kirchen since coming home, but she knew there would be something.
“Water would do for me.” Jose said.
The rest of them gave Bella what they wanted, and they set out to bring it to them.
They all sat around and spoke, filling her up with what she had missed, and she asked if any of them had seen Vivian in a while,
but none had. She didn’t ask because she cared much for her; it was, however, strange that she had disappeared from the
estate without a trace. Julian would probably know, but she didn’t want to ask him.
After their second hour of being here, Jashin and June barged into the room. They didn’t even take notice of the men in the room
because they headed straight for the bed where she sat
She made quick signs for those in her room, asking for pardon, before turning to the boys.
“June wouldn’t let me play with his Legos. Jashin reported.
She turned to June, who looked anything but sorry. “Why wouldn’t you let him play?” she asked with her brow raised.
“He lost it the last time I gave it to him.” June replied, and Fiona turned to Jashin
“Is that true?”
The boy nodded, confirming June’s words: “But I looked for it and found it.”
“After firee days, mommy, three days.” June emphasised, holding up three small fingers
Fions pressed her l*ps together to suppress her laugh. They were always headstrong with arguments.
“What if he promises not to lose it? Will that be alright?” She asked, and June, the

soft–hearted boy, nodded. She turned to Jashin and said, “You have to promise not to lose it this time”
“I promise I will not lose it.”
“Fine, then, you can have it.”
Jashin smiled, and that made June smile as well. “Alright then, go play, but first say hello to my colleagues”
“Hello, colleagues,” Jashin said, still holding onto his smile as he exited the room.
“Hello, Jashin” They echoed back in response.
June looked around at each of them and said, “Hello, all.”
“Hello, June,” they responded.
Her colleagues didn’t stay for much longer. They had to return to the settlement and continue their work for the rest of the day.
They all wished her a swift
recovery.
She walked them to the door, and while the other stepped out of the house, Marion took hold of her hand and pulled her back a
little. His action startled her, and she quickly drew her hand out of his hold.
He must have sensed her fear because he held his hands up in surrender. “I am sorry, I should not have done that.”
“Then why did you?” she demanded.
Jashin and June are Julian’s, aren’t they?” he said, going straight to the point.
Her heart dropped at his words and how certain he sounded. How did he put it together? Yes, the boys shared a few similarities
with the Lycan king, but was it that obvious
If it was, who else knew?
She turned away from him. “I do not know what you speak of”
“The first time I saw them. I knew they looked so close to home–too close to home. But after seeing them today, I know they are
his. Their smiles, their faces- it’s obvious. A casual observer might miss it, but I have been with Julian since we were little boys,
and I can see that those boys are a reflection of him.”
She had thought about the truth, and she had thought about coming out with it. Julian needed to hear the truth from her.Please bookmark site .org to read lastest content. If you want to read light please visit allnext.com to read fastest content.
She couldn’t continue with her lie. Marion knew the truth, and he looked too convinced to want to change it for her lies.
She stayed silent, not knowing what else to say. He continued to speak, “I know it is not my secret to share, and I don’t know the
story, but Julian would be more than happy to know this truth. Please consider giving him a chance at being the father to those
wonderful boys.”
