Chapter 69Lydia’s POV“Well?” I asked Darwin the minute he stepped out of my office. “What did she say?” The office door opened and Lily stepped out of the office with a sad smile on her face.“I told him we should investigate,” Lily replied.Darwin moved to my side and gently touched my arm. “Okay, are you sure?” I asked Lily softly. Her father is a touchy subject for her. Opening up an investigation would require to constantly be reminded of his existence.“Yeah,” Lily gave a nod and looked at Darwin. “I'm sure. It's the only way for Lady Lyssandra and the rest of the pack members to get off your back. This way we can prove you had nothing to do with his death,”I turned to Darwin “Did you agree with her?” “It's for the best baby,” Darwin whispered as he pressed a kiss on top of my head.“Yes Lydia, his Majesty is right. We've agreed to investigate the case. It'll make everything easier,” I sighed and gave a nod. “Alright. What's next? You still have to tell the council membe

Chapter 71Lydia’s POVShit! My eyes widened and a small part of my brain set off alarms.I knew I shouldn’t let go or let my shadows consume me, but one look at Lorcan and I lost control.“What are you!” Lorcan yelled.My shadows purred at the fear in his eyes and I smiled as they rose up around me and broke the ropes on my wrists.“Lydia,” Dimitri whispered in shock.That was the last word I heard before I let go.The force of my shadows whipped my hair about and the only thought chanting in my brain was“Cover Lily,” “Cover Lily”I didn’t have so much control over my powers but I painstakingly held my shadows away from where my friend laid unconscious on the floor.Lorcan and his man screamed loudly, their fear and panic fueling my shadows.Wait.There’s one person who’s totally unaffected.In the midst of the darkness, I watched in surprise as Dimitri walked forward towards me.He kept saying something but I couldn’t make out his words. “LYDIA STOP!” Drusilla yelled inside my hea

Chapter 73Lydia’s POVI took in a deep breath and bit my lip worriedly. “Hey,”I turned around to see that Matgery had entered the room and now stood behind me. “Sorry, I didn't hear you come in,” I apologized as I shook my head and ran a hand through my hair.“Its okay, don't apologise,” Margery whispered. “Are you okay? Have you told him?” She looked from me to Dimitri and around the empty room.“He’s in the closet inspecting the damage,”“And how did he take the news?” Margery moved closer to me.“Not well,” I shook my head. “He’s angry?” “I think he’s more hurt than angry,” I replied.Just then, Drusilla howled as Darwin stepped out of the closet and stood behind me.I turned around slowly, dreading to see the look on his face.“Darwin, before you get mad, I think we need to talk about this first,” Margery said in a soothing voice as she stepped out from behind me and walked towards Darwin.“You knew about this too?!” Darwin hissed as his anger and hurt slammed into me.I lo

Chapter 74Lydia’s pov“Hey,” Lily nudged me slightly “You okay?”I looked up from my phone quickly and gave her a nod.“Yeah, I’m good. I’m going to stay back a bit and talk to Darwin,” “K, I’ll be outside,” Lily adjusted her glasses as Amari held out his arm for her and they both walked out of the meeting room.Sounds of chairs scraping against the floor filled the room as several other council members also got to their feet and exited the room.My heart raced as I stared at Darwin and tried to decipher his emotions from his face. He blocked me out completely and I could barely feel a thing so all I could do was hope.He has forgiven me, right? He has to have. That is the only reason he would make Lyssandra apologize to me.The moment the meeting room door shut behind the last council member, the room suddenly felt very quiet.“Darwin?” I said with a soft smile as I moved my chair back and got to my feet.I observed his face. He just sat there, rock still, with no expression on his

I stared disoriented in shock as a voice I recognized as my own screamed and screamed and screamed.My hands were covered in blood and trembling as tears streamed down my face and I tried and failed to rouse the woman on the floor before me.I vaguely registered several workers rushing toward the base of the stairs and trying to help me with Freya.“What have you done?!” Lyssandra’s screech cut through my shock as she roughly shoved me out of the way and crashed to the floor beside Freya.“Freya! FREYA!!” Lyssandra screamed in terror and began to weep.“The baby?! Freya!” Wilson rushed towards us and began to check Freya’s pulse.All strength seemed to leave my body as I stared helplessly.“Shit Lydia! What happened?” Lily arrived by my side, and held my arms to gently guide me from Lyssandra’s side.“I…I-“ I shook, unable to form an intelligible sentence.“We need to get her to the infirmary. Now!” Margery yelled as she alongside some palace workers lifted Freya into a stretcher.“F
