Chapter 305: Confrontation
Blue.
It has been hours since I starting this research trial. I haven’t seen anything important that might help us. I am at the end of the roads right now. All out of option. The door opens and I see Major as he stands in front of , unsure if he should enter. I manage a faint smile because their association helped
get closer to the truth. Even if they didn’t actually give
much. Major has always been soone that I never got along with. He has always been a jerk to .
"Co in,’’ I stand up from the stool. He walks in and I watch him as he stops in front of the table.
"I heard about Levine,’’ he manages. I know there is a reason why he is here but I just don’t know what it is.
"Yes," I breathe out because I haven’t really accepted that she is such a bad person. Sohow, I don’t understand how she could hurt her own blood. It makes no sense to . My mother might have been a terrible person—like they all say but she didn’t deserve to be killed by her own family.
"There is no way she did this,’’ he tells , shaking his head in disbelief.
Everyone is free to have their own opinion. Everyone is free to believe what they want but all I know that Levine is still missing and Rex has taken her place. Levine might not be the monster that I think she is right now but I can’t think about all that until I get Rex back.
"Is she the leader of your association?’’ I ask him because that has been bothering
for a while. They didn’t want to disclose when I asked them, but now that it is known that she is the one responsible, then I feel like they should have known sothing, anything. Like the places, she could have been.
"I can’t say,’’ He looks away from . I see the fear in his eyes before they dart away from . Whatever he is involved with, might not be all that he expected.
"I am not the bad guy here. I am not going to use whatever you say against you,’’ I assure him.
He scoffs "What makes you different from Analise. You are her son.’’
No one is going to trust
in this coven if they think I am like her. I don’t know what she has done—fuck, I don’t even want to know. I would like to keep the ignorance. I don’t want to think of her and think that she was a bad person. She might not have been the greatest mother but she was there. She was the only one I knew growing up and I have to think about the good mories and not focus on the bad.
"I am not like her. I am my own person. I don’t care about the power that cos with this title. I don’t want you to think I am not approachable."
He sighs "I know that she didn’t do this. She was on our side and we didn’t plan on murdering anyone,’’ he blurts out, finally opening up to .
I take a deep breath because I have always felt like there could be more. Almost like she is not alone in whatever this is. If she was involved with soone else, that would an they are still both out there. Getting Rex back to his true form will not stop all that is happening. I need to fight them with the sa magic that they are using.
"Could she have gone rogue?’’ I ask.
He shakes his head "No way. Levine had the purest heart. She would have never hurt Analise—her own sister." He tells . "We planned the first attack. We wanted to scare her but the poison wasn’t lethal. We knew she wouldn’t die with it.’’
So they are the reason why I ca back to the coven. They are the ones that made
co back. If they hadn’t done what they did. I would have still been in the community—I would have still been in my love bubble, figuring out the dynamics of my relationship. I want to be angry with him. Bla this all on him but at the end of it all—it is not his fault. Soone else would have ended up hurting her—if all the things they keep saying about her are true. Then she had so many enemies. So many people that wanted her dead.
"What did you think would happen after poisoning her?"
He is still standing in front of
"We knew you would have to co back. We wanted you to co back. Levine strongly believed that you would be the light that could save us all.’’
Huh?
He just said that I was like her. Did they expect
to take over from her? Do they really want
as their chief?
This is all so confusing and I don’t know how much more of this I can take.
"? The half breed? The one that you all hate?’’ I have to ask and maybe this is
being petty as fuck. Maybe I have always carried this resentnt all my life.
"We never hated you,’’ he tells .
I roll my eyes on reflex "Major, I didn’t forget. These mories are still there. Don’t act like you don’t rember how you treated
growing up.’’
"I was a jerk but I never hated you,’’ he cos closer and I sigh. I don’t know what this is but I don’t care for it one bit.
"You need
now. You are desperate. That is why you are spewing these lies.’’
He shakes his head "I am far from desperate. I joined the association because of Eva. I haven’t had any problems with your mother. I am from an influential family, Analise never had a hold on .’’ I don’t know why he is explaining to . I don’t care about any of them.
"What can I even do for you?’’
He sighs "I want to talk to Levine. I need to understand what happened.’’
How do I even tell him that Levine is not the one with us? How do I explain the ssed up situation to him? I don’t even trusty him and I know for a fact that he doesn’t trust
either.
"I am not your enemy. I am not here with so vindictive plan. I just need to make things right. I know Levine and I know that she is not the monster that you think she is." he is watching , waiting for a response.
"I don’t have Levine,’’ I confess.
I guess I will find out soon enough if he is to be trusted.
