CHAPTER 116 COMING TO TERMSTEDDY'S P.O.VWe sat there in silence staring at one another for some time, I knew she had a lot to wrap her brain around. Not like I did of course but still a lot nonetheless. After a few moments of silence, she finally spoke."I don't understand.""He showed me her to threaten me. Letting me know he has the upper hand while also revealing he has an army behind his back. An army that has more power than me alone.""But your mom, I thought she was dead."It was like a revolving door, repeating myself time and time again to each person. I wished now that I could've just told everyone at once. But here I am, explaining this situation once again to a new face."Helena helped her. Long story short, she drank a potion that killed her temporarily so she could get away and work for Iblis to keep my identity a secret." "What a bitch." Lucy said, looking right at me. "I wouldn't even know what I would think if my mother did this to me." She said more seriously."It
CHAPTER 117 ELIMINATIONTEDDY'S P.O.VBefore we knew it Lucy was ready and the body camera was intact. We had it made to where it looked like a button so that it appeared as part of her blouse. After it was in place we turned on the computer to ensure it was connected correctly before she left for her shift."Is anyone else nervous?" Fredrick asked, his eyes never leaving the computer screen.She was currently driving so all we could see was the steering wheel and the sounds of music playing in the background."Yeah," I said, agreeing with him.Of course, I was nervous, this was a high-risk operation. Putting her in potential danger was terrifying. Although she acted as if it weren't a big deal at all, I knew it was. Lucy loved to walk on the line of what a normal person would consider dangerous. She said it made her soul happy."Don't worry, she can do this," Fenirs said, kissing my head to try and keep my nerves in check. Her car came to a stop before she exited the vehicle, headin
CHAPTER 118 LET'S SET A TRAPFENIRS'S P.O.VI didn't like where this plan was heading but it seemed as if fate had a way of laughing in our faces at what we wanted to do versus what was going to happen. I looked over at Teddy who seemed to be thinking deeply about what we could do. Suddenly the camera on Lucy shut off as she exited into the dancefloor of the club, leaving us clueless as to what she was doing."She isn't evil. She isn't going to go through with such a thing. She is your best friend." Fredrick said to Teddy. Although Teddy decided to not reply."We need to come up with a backup plan in case Lucy means what she says," Helena said, making Teddy snap her head in her direction. "You can't expect us to go in blindly in case she turns on you, Teddy." She then said after seeing the look in Teddy's eyes."My mate wouldn't do that!" Fredrick then yelled."We don't know what your mate would and wouldn't do. Stop acting like she has given you any reason to trust her." I decided to
CHAPTER 119 WHAT DO WE DO NOW?TEDDY'S P.O.VI won't lie, I was a little nervous. Do I trust the woman who saved my life when we first met or is she too far gone to be trusted? It's a sad ordeal to have to contemplate. I just have to hope that she is true to her word by being on our side.It seemed like hours had passed before I could sense Lucy was here. She was right, had I been paying more attention, I would've known I could sense her all this time.I looked over to Fenirs who still had no idea that she had arrived."She is here."That was all I said before he jumped up from his spot."Time to start putting the plan into action." He said as he grabbed the tranquilizer gun from off the table."No, remember it is a last resort. If she attacks me, then you tranquilize her, but not before. Do you understand?" "What if her attack is fatal, what if we are too late?" He began to ask in a panic."I'm stronger than I appear, Fenirs. I can handle myself just fine." I replied defensively."E
CHAPTER 120 MEETING MALICIOUSTEDDY'S P.O.VI quickly glided down the stairs to stop her from whatever destruction she was causing. When I made it to the foyer she had one of the plant vines holding an innocent maid by the throat, her feet dangling in the air as she gasped for air."Put her down, Malicious!" I screamed, making her head snap to me."Ahh, just the girl I was looking for." She said with a crooked smile.The vine holding the maid up slowly untwined as it released its hold. Once she was free she quickly scurried off, absolutely terrified."Why are you in my home?" I asked, even though I was fully aware of the why. I just wanted her to say it."I think you and I both know why I am here." She said with nothing but hate in her tone.Lucy was right, the evil look in her eyes told me that there was no way she was the woman who did everything she could to protect me. "You don't know me, do you?" I asked, a bit of sadness in my tone from her really not being able to recognize me
CHAPTER 121 REACTIONSTEDDY'S P.O.VIt took her a while to wake up. To say I was nervous was an understatement. We weren't sure the potion would work so there was a chance she would be waking up wanting to kill me still. I asked Fredrick to be in the room with me, but if anything were to hit the fan he was to immediately disappear until it was corrected.The monitor's wave link picked up a pace when she started to come too. Her eyes began to flutter open, still in a confused state of mind. She looked around completely unaware of what had happened."Where am I?" Her groggy voice asked. "Who are you, people?" She then asked as her heart rate began to spike."Mom! Mom, it's me, Fredrick!" Fredrick nearly screamed as he rushed forward. Her heart rate quickly picked up with every step he took."I...I don't know you. My son is... he is not you," She replied in a terrified voice, making my heart sink.I look over to see how Fredrick would react. He had stopped walking when she spoke and was
CHAPTER 122 TIME FOR THE TRUTHTEDDY'S P.O.VI paced the floor once we were back in my wing debating on if this was the right course of action. If I called Darion and told him, our father would obviously try coming too. But if I called and demanded his appearance without an explanation he would be livid and come with an attitude. Not that his attitude scared me one bit, I just wasn't sure what the best route was to take."I strongly believe you should call him," I said to Fredrick."Me? He hates me, that's a bad idea.""He hates me more," I replied defensively."But now you're his queen so he HAS to obey." He replied with a chuckle."Doesn't mean he will like it. He may not even answer.""What if I call?" Helena suggested. "He was never nice to you, Hell," I said in response."Well then y'all can decide but as far as who should call, it doesn't matter. Just do it." She said in her mother-hen voice."Fine," I replied, taking my phone out. "What about a text?" I asked looking up."Call
CHAPTER 123 NO REACTIONFENIRS'S P.O.VWe got up early the next day in order to prepare for what was to come. Teddy was already sitting at the desk lost in her own thoughts, trying to gather what she should say. It was about to be a hell of a long day between Teddy trying to figure out the truth as to why her mother was stuck in the past and what happened in the past that was haunting her so badly. Then of course the fact that she inevitably is going to have to tell her Father, Drake, and oldest Brother, Darion, that Marci was still very much alive."How would you break the news to people you don't care to really even talk to?" She asked, looking over to me.I was stuck because personally, I would just drop the news like a bombshell. But in order to get the information she is seeking that may not be the correct way of going about it."Well since we are needing valuable information that could help us with Marci I would say we discuss the topic we need first. We need to focus on that fi
