Faded Love

"I can't believe that witch really did that to you!" Drixie's voice was heard all over the mansion. She was with Cora holding her hands as the doctor examined her and put medication on her wounds.

"Drixie, calm down." Her brother Norwan said as he looked at the doctor.

"How is she?" He asked. At that time, Natalie suddenly arrived with her wet dress and wet hair; she was also cold. Drixie saw her and suddenly stood up.

"You darn bitch!"

"Drixie!" Norwan called her sister in a severe voice, Drixie stopped and looked terribly at Natalie.

"How dare you push Cora off the cliff? Are you that desperate to manifest everyone around you?!" Drixie asked Natalie. "I wonder why my brother marries you."

"I didn't push her," Natalie said. "I was about to save her that time because she wanted to jump off the cliff," she explained.

"And now you're lying, huh?" Drixie said and smirked. "Did you think that we would believe in you? How come she wants to jump off that cliff? She's not that crazy, unlike you!"

"I'm telling you the truth!" Natalie exclaimed. 

"So you're saying that what I saw earlier is wrong?" Drixie asked with a sarcastic voice.

"Drixie, that's enough," Norwan said. Natalie looked at Norwan, he had a cold expression and a dark aura. Norwan suddenly looked at her.

"Norwan, believe me, I just save--"

"I SAID STOP!" Norwan shouted. "I don't want to hear any voices from the two of you!" He said, pointing to Drixie and Natalie. He again faced the doctor.

The doctor took a deep breath and looked at Norwan with a depressed aura.

"I am sorry, but the baby didn't make it." The doctor said, 

"No," Cora said and started to cry. "That's not true!" She said, calling. Drixie approached Cora and hugged her tight.

"Shhhh," Drixie calms her down. While Norwan is talking to the doctor.

On the other hand, Natalie was shocked because of the news. She knew she didn't push Cora on the cliff, she just saved her. She just wants to help the baby in Cora's womb, but it turns out she made it more messy.

She knew Cora was on the cliff trying to jump because of her sadness. She caught Cora and her mother fighting because of some business, and when her mother left her. She saw how Cora left heartbroken, she wanted to comfort Cora then, but she knew they were not close. Cora didn't like her, so all she did was watch her until Cora went to the cliff and tried to jump, but before Cora did her plan, she approached her and pushed to the side to save her, which caused Natalie to fall down the cliff into the sea. Fortunately, the ridge is not that high, and below the cliff is the sea which only caused her to drink some salt water. 

That time, Drixie was behind and saw how Natalie pushed Cora to the side.

"This is all your fault!" Cora exclaimed while looking at Natalie.

"I just want to save you because--"

"I don't need you to save me!" Cora said while crying.

"Because of you, my baby is gone! Because of you, I had a miscarriage of my baby!" Cora put the blame on her. Natalie shook her head.

"Cora is right; if you didn't push her, she would not miscarry her baby, " Drixie said and stood up. "Who will believe in your alibi? Cora is not that stupid to jump off the cliff if she knew that her baby would be put in danger." Drixie added. 

"Just tell the truth that you really want to kill Cora's baby or even Cora because you're jealous of her." 

"That's not true..."

"That's the truth, you darn killer."

"I said I just want to help her--"

"Help her for what?" Natalie and Drixie's attention goes to Norwan as he speaks coldly this time. Norwan is mad at Natalie, as Drixie said earlier, she saw Natalie push Cora to the side. This statement is clear to him that Natalie really wants to hurt Cora. 

In fact, he is also mad because Cora was hurting this time because of her miscarriage, and Norwan doesn't want to see Cora crying because Cora is special to him. Even though it's his dead brother's wife, he still feels for the woman and promises to do anything to make Cora happy.

He also promised to stand as a father to Cora's child, but that promise vanished as she miscarried the child because of Natalie.

"Norwan.. believe me, I just want to save her," Natalie said.

"Your ambition to save her put her life in danger and caused the miscarriage of her child," Norwan said coldly.

"I... It's not what I want. I... I just--"

"It's clear that this filthy witch really wants to hurt Cora because she is jealous that Cora gets more attention from you," Drixie said to her brother. Natalie shook her head.

"That is not true! Yes, I get jealous sometimes, but I can't hurt someone else, I can't hurt Cora." Natalie said. She wants to defend herself, she thinks Norwan will believe her because she is his wife, but Norwan believes Cora more than her.

"Oh, there, you finally tell the truth that you really got jealous of Cora," Drixie said, laughing.

Natalie's tears start forming, she feels like Drixie and Norwan join forces to put the blame on her.

"Norwan..." She looked at him helplessly, Norwan's aura still cold. "Please believe me, you know me. I can't do such a thing to hurt anyone." She said, and this time, her tears suddenly fell.

"Oh, don't use your tears on us. It won't work."Drixie said. "You know what, brother? She needs to kneel down to Cora and apologize for what she did. " Drixie said to her brother. Natalie's eyes suddenly widened.

"Why would I kneel down if I didn't do anything in the first place?" Natalie asked.

"Oh, really? So you're probably prioritizing your pride over saying sorry to Cora?" Drixie asked. Natalie looked at Norwan.

"Norwan.."

"Drixie was right, you should kneel down to Cora and apologize for what you did." He said. Natalie suddenly felt angry as she looked at Norwan. Is this really happening? Norwan wants her to kneel down? She is the Luna of the pack! So why would she kneel down for Cora?!

"Take back what you said," Natalie said.

"Oh, look at you, you are really prioritizing your pride," Drixie whispered.

"I didn't do anything to her! I didn't push her off the cliff. Why can't you believe in me, Norwan?! I am your wife!"

"Just kneel down to her and apologize for what you did, or I will terminate our mateship?!" Norwan shouted, which made Natalie feel angry with him.

How did he do this to her? He must believe in her more than Cora. She is his wife!

"I will never kneel down to someone because I am the Luna of the pack! And it is against the rule to force me to kneel down to someone!" Natalie growled.

Norwan made that rule, and he knows it is against the rule, so why would he force her to kneel down?! After all, Natalie is the Luna of the pack!

"I made that rule, Natalie," Norwan said coldly. "Kneeling down to Cora is the only way for you to teach a lesson." He added. Natalie couldn't believe what she heard. 

Teach her a lesson? But she didn't do anything!

"Teach me a lesson for what? Norwan, I am telling you the truth."

"You choose Natalie, Kneel down and admit your fault and apologize to Cora, or I will terminate our mateship?
