The Axe in The Tree

Chapter 24

"Why are you asleep on my brother's bed?"
I opened my eyes groggily and saw Bradford was standing there.
Dammit where is Dominic?
"Hey" Bradford poked my face as if I wasn't awake "answer my question."
"Because I'm handcuffed?"
Why didn't he ask about the handcuffs? And why was he in here?
"Why are you in here?" I asked.
"Why are you handcuffed to the bed?"
"I asked first."
"You're not exactly in the place to be asking questions."
"Oh is it me being a servant? Or being unwilling handcuffed to someone else's bed?" I scoffed.
"Both." Bradford shrugged.
Well thanks.
Bradford brushed his hair out of his face. His hair was more an ashy blonde, a nice color but not as beautiful as Dominic's stark white hair.
"You're hair is different from Dominic's."
"Yes, it's because he has a different mother from Evander and I."
"What?"
So that's why he looks a little different from his brothers.
Explains why his better looking too.
"And to make it worse, my mother refuses to attend anything he does. She hates him."
Well if her husband cheated why was she blaming the child from it? Dominic didn't ask to born.
"Well I'm curious to see what my brother does." Bradford walked toward my chambers and opened the door. "Don't tell my brother."
"Hey wait! How will you get out!? He will see you leave!"
Bradford frowned and tugged at his left sleeve.
"You're right, I guess."
