Chapter 73
Hardin’S POV
I walk over to the door of my bedroom with a tray of food in my hand. Yesterday, I had managed to make her get out of the closet and we ate breakfast together, though in dead silence. I know she’s going to throw a tantrum, so the least I can do is bring food for her.
I knock at the door and a few moments later, she comes and opens it, dressed up in my clothes which happen to be a pair of shorts and t-shirt. My heart swells up with emotions and I just smile as I walk in.
I’m glad that she likes wearing my clothes.
She doesn’t say a single word to me as she walks over the bed, but I can see that she looks weak and pale. The fever actually dealt with her last night.
“Good morning” I greet
“Morning” She mumbles under her breath and I place the tray of food before her on the bed.
She’s not throwing a tantrum and I’m freaking out internally. I don’t like the fact that she’s quiet. I want her to scold me for bringing her in here.
“You don’t look too well”
“I don’t feel too well”
“Should I take you back to the hospital”
“No please, I’ll be fine. I promise”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“Are you sure?”
“Yeah”
“Here’s your breakfast. You have a few tablets to take when you are done eating”
“We are eating together right?” She asks weakly and I look at her with furrowed brows.
“You want us to eat together?”
“Yeah” She says nodding and I just smile.
If my Luna wants us to eat together, who am I to say no?
I serve us both some spinach and as we eat, something crosses my mind.
“Reign” I call and she snaps her head up to look at me.
“Yes”
“Tell me about your relationship with you father before your eighteenth birthday”
“Uh… well, dad and I never really had the ideal father-daughter bond. We could stay for months without seeing each other, it was horrible”
“And was there a reason why he kept his distance?”
“Well, I know about two reasons. First, was the fact my mother died at child birth, time and again, he would blame me for my mother’s death and I just knew he disliked me for that, also, because of my strength, he didn’t want me to harm him ever”
“That means you and your father gave never been close”
“Never, ever! I can’t even remember the last time I hugged my father”
“Can you tell me exactly what happened after I rejected you on your birthday party?”
“Why do you want to know?” she asks with a creased brow.
“I just want to know the truth Reign”
“Why now?”
“I feel like this is the right time for me to know. Please just tell me” I insist and she just shakes her head.
“Well, after you rejected me that night, I was devastated so I let Lyla take over me, she ran into the woods where we both lamented about the fact that you had rejected us and that was when we got attacked by a rogue. We killed it rushed back home where I took my bath and went to bed, caring less about the fact that the party was still ongoing. I don’t know what happwned next” She explains as she eats on and just nod my head.
There’s more to this issue that what actually meets the eye and I’m going to get to the root of this matter. That is a must!
“What about your relationship with Wilma?”
“Not healthy either. She only got close to me to steal my pheromone and attract you. She has never liked me”
“But how is that even possible, you two were sisters”
“How am I supposed to know? I was treated like some outcast by both my father and sister and throughout I blamed myself for it because of my special strength. I just thought they scared were of me, but there was actually more.” She explains.
I can’t even imagine myself not loving Kylie. She is my baby sister and I love her very much, even my cousins Megan and Melissa, I love them to bits and I will defend them any where and any time.
The fact that Wilma didn’t like Reign bothers me a lot and I won’t be at rest if I don’t get the root of this matter.
“Thanks for the information”
“Anytime” She says shrugging and I just look at her in awe, wondering how one person can be so gorgeous. I’m so proud to have her as my mate.
She is the definition of perfection!
“Who made this breakfast?” She suddenly asks
“Mum”
“Wow, she’s a great… Ahah! Can you actually believe that your mum is Ma’am Sophia? The servant supervisor who always defended me? She told me everything yesterday and I almost fainted. She’s such a role model!”
“Yeah, mum is very well known for having her own ways. Even my father was never able to tame that part of her. She’s weird, weird I tell”
“She’s the perfect example of a good Luna!”
“Yeah, she is. Can I ask you a question?” I suddenly ask again.
“Yeah”
” Why aren’t you mad about the fact that I brought you I here?”
“You expected me to throw a fit, right?”
“Yeah, I did”
“Even if I do, it won’t change the fact that I slept here. I’ll just make sure not to have a fever any more so this won’t happen again.” She explains with all seriousness and I can’t help but laugh.
I swear Reign is a whole vibe.
After breakfast, I go over to the training ground to meet Miguel.
After hearing all what Reign just told me about her sister and father, I would like to investigate this issue and get to the root of this matter.
Right now, I believe that she is innocent, I believe that she did not kill Wilma, but I want to know who did and made it look like it was Reign.
I need to know who committed this atrocity and put the blame on Reign.
I swear the day I’ll find that person. The consequences for him will be apocalyptic!
“Miguel” I call as I walk over to where he’s standing and he turns to look at me.
“Hey bud, what brings you here?”
“There’s an error I committed that I want to fix right now”
“What error” He asked alarmed.
“Wilma’s death, I blamed it on Reign, but I just had a conversation with her this morning that has got me thinking twice. I want to do an investigation on this issue.”
“It was about time Hardin! I have been waiting for you to make this declaration. Just say the word and it’s done, what do you want me to do?”
“Nothing yet, first, I want to go over to Mr. Logan’s house and have a little chitchat with him.”
“Are you sure you don’t want me to go there instead?” He asks eager and I just shake my head.
“No Miguel, I juts came to tell you about my latest move about this issue. I’m going to get to you when I need you, but for now, juts stay cool”
“Alright then, if you say so”
“Good, I’ll head over to his house, there’s a few things I would like to find out”
“Good luck” He says giving me a bro hug.
“Thanks bro”
I honestly need to get to the root of this matter and like I said before, when I’ll discover the person who had Wilma killed and decided to frame up Reign, he or she is going to get it hot from me.
Very hot!
I leave the training grounds and go over to my car where I get in and drive over to Mr. Logan’s house.
There’s a few technical things I would like to find out from him and it better not match with what I have on my mind, else this would be the end for him.
He had better not have a hand in any if this cuz if he does, heaven have mercy on his soul!
