Chapter 0153


    I’m healing well. Soon I’ll be back to full strength.


    “Alright, both of you stay with her, we are on our way back,” I say to Jai just as I hold my hand out to


    Zion, but at the same time so does Hugh.


    Zion looks between us as a grin crosses his lips before I retract mine and Hugh smiles. As much as


    they’re mine, he has taken care of them, and they are his grandchildren,


    An hour has passed since we returned, but Valerie has been in an extremely strange state since she


    woke up.


    Even when I talked to her, she refused to answer, and she has done. nothing but cling to Zaia. Zaia has


    made us leave the room so she can talk to her alone, but I can hear her begging Zaia to take her away


    from here.


    Her words make me feel uneasy as they ring in my head.


    ‘Get the children! Get your children we must go far, far away! Don’t


    trust them, don’t trust anyone!’


    The fear in her voice is not something that can be faked.


    “She needs rest,” Mnie says as she sits there carrying Sia.


    Hugh is frowning but doesn’t reply and Jai is sitting there tapping his foot. He’s worried and restless but


    he’s trying to hold himself together.


    I know he’s hurt because whenever he tried to talk to her or go near her, she got worked up. There has


    to be a reason behind it…

    We can’t hear anything from out here, and it’s just a waiting game hoping that she has something to tell


    Zaia regarding why she’s so worried.


    It feels like hours, although it’s a mere twenty-minutes waiting for


    Zaia toe out.


    The silence in the hall is loud, and after another five minutes, Zaia steps out of the room. Zion rushes to


    her and hugs her, and she smiles down at him as she hugs him back, but it’s clear from the look. in her


    eyes that she’s troubled.


    Jai stands up, looking at her expectantly.


    “What did she say?” Hugh asks, talking for the first time since we


    returned.


    She looks down and shakes her head. “She’s not saying. She doesn’t remember anything. I think it’s


    what’s causing her panic. Tonight, I have a pack meeting and I want her to be there too… she isn’t safe


    to be alone, she’s very disturbed.” She sighs.


    “Don’t worry, we’ll bring her and make sure she’s happy with whoever


    is around her.


    “Thank you.” She says quietly.


    “So, she didn’t say anything? Did she see her attacker?” Mnie asks, concern on her face.


    “Nothing,” Zaia answers.


    Before anyone can say anything more, a member of staffes down the hall.


    “Ma’am, this was delivered for you.” She says to Zaia.


    Oh s hit. That’s the envelope I had sorted for her regarding Mnie. With everything going on, I had


    forgotten to even give her a heads-up.


    +25 BONUS


    She opens it distractedly as everyone watches her.


    F uck, how do I tell her?


    It’s toote. As she pulls the card out, reading it, her heart races as her gaze snaps to my mine before


    she stares down at the card once


    more.


    “Zaia, are you alright?” Mnie asks,


    Well, at least her reaction is real.-


    Zaia stares down at the card, reading it all as Hugh crosses the room, making Zaia step back and hide


    it behind her back. “This… this is for my eyes only…” she murmurs, staring at her mother. “Mother…N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    can we have a word alone? Now?”


    Mnie looks confused as she stares between us before she nods and stands up. Zaia walks down the


    hall to the lounge and Mnie follows.


    I hope Zaia gets the answers she desires…


    And something tells me that tonight will be intense…
