Does he mean the Moon Dust? Is that how Mom knew about the triquetra⦠because of Grandfather?
Back up is almost here and with the three points of the triquetra being here. I donât want to let this chance slip.
Focus, Zaia.
âNo, but if I did, I wouldnât tell you,â I reply, hoping I sounded believable.
He chuckles lightly. âHmm⦠yet you found us here⦠coincidence, I guess.â He smiles chillingly before he glances down the hallway.
âSebastian is about to die, thanks to you. I knew you had the rage and fight in you, if only you chose this side and I didnât have to settle for two Kings,â Lawrence says.
Sebastianâs lookalike looks down, his eyes flashing. Grandadâs words didnât seem to settle well with him, but he doesnât seem to want to defy him either.
Sebastian⦠My heart squeezes and deep down I feel guilt clawing at me, but at the same time, I feel numb and empty.
He made his bed, and now he must lie in it.
âGo t your brother, Gaultier. He cannot die.â Lawrence says, his eyes darkening with rage. Despite how heâs talking, heâs angry.
Gaultier nods, lowering his head before he walks off, and I look at Grandad.
âSo, youâre the one behind it all. The one pulling the strings?â Atticus asks.
Lawrence smiles, but it does not reach his eyes. âWell, I canât say I did it all alone⦠but of course, I have been preparing for the Blood Born just as my family before me has, for years. And finally, the time has come and right in front of me, I have two of the Sublime at my mercy⦠Victory is ours.â His voice is calm, yet it holds effortless power.
No, you wonât.
âWhy? Do you really think by eliminating the werewolf race that you are doing the right thing?â I ask.
âZaiaâ¦â Dad says as he steps closer to me. He isnât in a good state but heâs still trying to proiect me.
âI donât think, I know. Once all those who donât deserve to be called werewolves are dead, those who cannot shift, those who cannot call on their aura, their healing!
Those who canât mind link, they all deserve to die. And then those who believe in the goddess will be the ones to procreate and birth warriors and Alphas. Those who will be strong like Zade and Gaultier, not losers like you and your sister.â He sneers, staring at Atticus.
I frown, sister? Why did he even mention Atticusâs sister?
âIf youâve done something to my family, I will kill you!â Atticus snarls, his heart racing, My own heart sinks, fearing for them. Atticus has been helping me. What if in his absence something happened?
âDonât drag the innocent into this. If youâve touched Linette-â
âFools⦠such foolsâ¦â He throws his head back, roaring into laughter. âYou are parading around like you know everything. That you deserve to win, that you are correct, yet you know nothing about the truth behind your own life! You donât even.
know how the Blood Born work!â
âWhat do you mean?â I ask sharply.
âI mean what I said, the Blood Born are three, the Sublime and Sable are born from three bloodlinesâ¦
Meaning that two by two of the Blood Born are siblings.â
Linette was part of the Blood Born? How?
âThat doesnât make sense. What are you trying to say?â I ask sharply as Atticus looks 1. up.
âNo it doesnât, Linette is not a Blood Born. That would only apply to the Toussaint twins and the King brothersâ¦â Atticus trails off clearly confused.
âValerie. Valerie was adopted by the Scottâs.â Dad says suddenly. âDo you mean sheâs related to Atticus?â
Atticus and I both look at him, stunned.
Atticus and Valerie?
The smile on Grandadâs face makes it clear that Dad is somehow correct.
âWhat?â Atticus asks sharply.
My mind is spinning as I try to keep my focus together.
How is it possible?
I look across at Atticus, who is staring between Dad and Grandad. Their long faces, their long lashes, their youthful featuresâ¦
