Atlas POV
"But where she could be at this hour?" Mother elara asked,her voice laced with concern.
"Damn it to the hell" I looked at the door with my piercing gaze.
Father adrein's scowl deepened,his eyes furrowed "Sofia you could have stopped her when u bumped into her"
Sofia rolled her eyes "Oh god dad" exasperation etched on her face "I went there to get a glass of water. I didn't thought she was sneaking out"
Just then the door swung open, Lyra slipped in her eyes darting around the room. A hint of guilt flashing across her face. Mom rushed to her, relief etched on her face.
She hugged her softly "Lyra,where were you at this hour"
Lyra hesitated, fidgeting with her sleeve "U-uh mom... I went to my father's house"
I froze,my mind racing "What the hell were you thinking?"
She took a deep breathe "For god sake calm down,my father was a little sick so I thought to visit him"
Dad said,his voice stern,"God, You could have said something we were worried sick"
Sofia snorted "exactly" her arms crossed around her waist "You didn't tell me when you met me there? What's going on?"
Lyra's eyes dropped to the ground and replied "cause I didn't meant to worry anyone"
Mom sighed and held her arm in a comforting gesture "But next time inform us Lyra.. you are our family right?" She smiled.
We were in our bedroom,Lyra slid the curtains shut wearing a silk silver camisole and pants. I stood behind her my voice cold.
"What was that?" I asked my voice cold and low,eyes fixed on her"
"What do you mean?" Her brow furrowed. I sighed fraustration simmering "I mean who were were you with? Can u just tell the truth"
She raised an eyebrow her arms crossed "What's your problem" she tilted her head and tone firm "I went to my father's house how many time should I repeat?"
I took a step closer "have you heard of curiosity",my eyes narrowing.
"None of your business" her gaze met mine.
In one Swift motion,I pinned her against the wall,my voice low and menacing "then why did u marry? Was that for fuck's sake?" I grasped her arms, fingers digging into her skin.
Her eyes locked onto mine,her gaze burning with intensity "You know very well" she whispered.
I felt a surge of anger and protectiveness,my grip tightening.
"That hurts" Lyra whispered,her gaze drifted to my grip.
My anger deepened, Lyra stood tall as my grip loosened on her hands---her eyes locked onto mine. I stepped back, she crossed her arms around her chest "I'll sleep on the couch", she declared---her voice steady and resolute.
