KABANATA LIX

Third Person's POV

"Put them in the dungeon. Keep a close eye on Levan; he might do something once he wakes up. Call me if anything happens, understand?" Malamig ang boses ni Crizelle habang nagbibigay ng utos kay Kleon, na nakangising tumango.

"Masusunod, my lady." Kleon had been the one who sought an alliance with Crizelle after meeting her at the mansion.

He became infatuated with her almost immediately and willingly revealed everything he knew about the secret group Greyson had formed to locate Everly.

He glanced toward their captives, Ophir and Levan. The latter still appeared suspicious to him, especially because of Crizelle's familiarity with the creature and her repeated warnings about how dangerous he could become.

Crizelle had hidden Yvaine's unconscious body in a secret location. She intended to use the girl as leverage against both men. Since Levan seemed deeply attached to Yvaine, they could manipulate his feelings and force him to obey their commands when the coming war finally began.

Hindi mapigilan ni Crizelle ang pag-irap habang nakatingin kay Levan. Hindi niya akalaing may kakayahan palang makaramdam ng ganoong uri ng emosyon ang isang demonyo.

For her, affection was a weakness.

She would make Levan remember what he truly was. She would tear away every trace of tenderness he possessed and turn him back into the ruthless monster he had once been.

"You told me I can kill him." Iyon ang unang salitang narinig niya mula kay Lukariah matapos itong manahimik mula pa kagabi.

Napangisi si Crizelle at marahang lumapit sa bata.

They had returned to Darkmoon, where they were already eliminating anyone who stood between them and the war they intended to ignite against Crescentmoon.

"Don't be too excited, my dear," she whispered, gently placing a hand on Lukariah's arm. "You'll get your justice once we get our hands on that god-cursed pack."

Crizelle showed Lukariah a projection of the events from the previous night. However, she carefully altered several details, twisting the truth until Crescentmoon appeared responsible for everything that happened, especially the mysterious disciple who had slaughtered their forces.

Hindi pa rin makapaniwala si Crizelle na si Everly pala ang nasa likod ng lahat.

Kung alam lamang niya noon na si Weresfia ang nakatago sa katawan nito, sana ay winakasan na niya ang buhay nito habang nasa mansion pa sila.

But there was no use dwelling on the past. She and Lord Helian had more important plans, and Lukariah would play a crucial role in making them succeed.

Just as the twins had manipulated the Alpha of Crescentmoon, Crizelle carefully fed Lukariah's grief and rage. She magnified every painful memory connected to Castriel's death until anger became easier to carry than sorrow.

Lukariah could think of nothing except revenge. She blamed herself for not being there that night. If she had been present, perhaps she could have saved her brother.

Even killing her father with her own hands had brought her no satisfaction. She would only feel complete once she found that disciple and made her pay.

"My lady, your mother is here." Nanggaling sa labas ang boses ng isang kawal matapos nitong kumatok sa pinto.
