Chapter 281
Blue.
This is basically a cult.
A group of people coming together for a purpose and the purpose is to kill my mother. Major didn’t seem scarfed when he knew that I would see this, it is almost like he wanted me to see into his mind. He wanted me to see this.
“Gather around, so that the meeting can commence,’’ I hear the voice before I see the person. The second I see the person, my eyes open wide in shock. I knew Evanora couldn’t be trusted. It is not like I even trusted her in the first place. There was no doubt in my mind that she wasn’t going to be someone that would end up helping me. I just needed information and it seemed like she had the information I needed.
There are a group of people. I know them all. Major is part of this cult and six more people from the coven. These are the people responsible for everything. They are the ones that hurt Rex and my mother. All the damages that have happened in the span of a couple of days. They planned this together and carried it out with the help of dark magic.
“Are we staring without her?’’ Mage, one of the members of our coven asks, Mage is older than Evanora and Major. He is the same age as my mother. This seems like a group of young people. Weird to see him here. Mage has always been very quiet in the coven. The kind of person that never caused any trouble.
“She wouldn’t be able to make it tonight,’’ Major speaks up. There is someone else that is not here. It seems like that person is the mastermind of this group.
“Are we supposed to start without her?” Pogue asks.
These people are conspiring against the chief and they succeeded. They have her in bed, in a mess and I don’t know how to prove that this is them.
“She said we can,’’ Major adds.
I am in his mind but it feels like I am watching a movie in front of me. I open my eyes as the memory vanishes. There is sweat trickling down my forehead. I don’t know what I was expecting but I didn’t expect a fucking coup. A group of people out to get my mother. I walk out of the potion room and out of the house because I need to find Evanora and let her know that I know. I plan on getting whatever I can from her. I won’t just sit back and watch Rex suffer. This is the only way that I can do this.
I have never been to her house before but I know where it is. So many parties that I wasn’t invited to in high school. I would see the people outside her house when I go for my intentional run. I would be sad that I wasn’t invited—now, it all seems so inconsequential to me. it doesn’t even matter to me anymore.
I get to her front door and she opens the door before I even get a chance to knock, almost like she has been expecting me. There is a smile on her face. It sickens me, because of all the things I know now. The fact that they were conspiring against my mother just makes me angrier.
“Hi Blue,’’ she bats her lashes and opens the door wider “Come in, we have been expecting you.’’ she moves away from the door. She leads me into the living room and I remain quiet, unsure of what to say. The moment I enter the living room of the house, I see all the people from the memory. Major winks at me the moment our eyes meet. It makes my skin crawl.
“What is going on here?’’ I manage with a stutter.
“Have a seat first. We have a lot to discuss,’’ Eva mutters calmly. I don’t see how they can be calm about this situation.
“What is going on here? I need an answer.’’ I scream already tenses with the whole thing. I don’t have the time to waste on formal conversations with these people.
“Have.A.Seat.” Mage stands up from the couch and glares at me. I have never really been one to cower but the stern expression on his face has me on a chair before I even know it. “Good, welcome Blue. I am sure you are wondering what is going on here.’’ He adds.
“You people are responsible for the attack,’’ I accuse them.
“No, we are not,’’ Major blurts out immediately.
“You knew it was going to happen, you bewitched my mate. Made him do it,’ I know this is childish. I should hear from them before pointing fingers at them but I just want to get to the bottom of things before they get to what they are now.
“We didn’t try to kill the chief, and we don’t even know anything about your mate.” The tone in Eva’s voice is sincere. I almost want to believe her but I also know that I can’t just trust her because they tell me to.
“What is this cult you have going on? You expect me to just believe you?’’
Mage nods “This is not a cult. It is an association.’’
“Why do you have an association?’’ I ask because I genuinely want to know what they are conspiring against. I know it must have something to do with my mother. There is no way this is about her.
“You are right about one thing. We were glad about her attack,’’ Mage informs me. “You need to understand that this association was created to take all the power from her. Analise is not the leader that we need and we would have done anything to get her off her high horse.’’
I don’t even know what they are talking about.
“What high horse?’’ I ask confused as fuck.
Major smiles and then stands up from his seat, slowly walking over to me. He sits down on the empty chair next to me. He is trying to make me feel included but I feel far from that. I feel like I shouldn’t be here. I don’t even want to be part of this…association.
“Your mother hasn’t been a good leader for a while now.” he breathes out like I will be able to relate to that.
I don’t know anything about her leadership skills because I haven’t involved myself in any of that. The fact that they are telling me this now, has me confused.
“We are living in tyranny and it has to end,’’ Mage adds.
Tyranny?
Isn’t that farfetched?
“All you are saying just tells me all I need to know. You wanted her gone and now she is on her death bed. Doesn’t that just make you people the suspect?’’
“We didn’t do this. We knew that it was happening but we didn’t do this,’’ Major tries to assure me but I don’t believe him.
“Then who did?’’ I manage.
They all look at me like I would have the answer to that question even though I am the one that asked. I don’t know what they are thinking but I don’t.
