Enderlox: The Trilogy (Part 3)

Chapter 5

Skyler's POV

Uncle Ty handed me a plate of food. The meal consisted of steak and macaroni. I kindly thanked him and smiled. Uncle Ty has had me here for about a week. I have no idea why, but i feel more at home here . I happily ate away at my food.

"Uncle Ty?" I called. He looked up from his slightly larger plate of food. "Why am I still here? My birthday party is coming up soon." I asked. He sighed softly.

"Skyler, I have you here to protect you. " he said. I tilted my head.

"From who?" I quizzed. He lowered his head in shame as he spoke. "From me..." He said.

"What?"

"I'm planning on attacking Sky's precious little kingdom on your birthday." He explained. "I didn't want you to get hurt in the process, and if I left you there, then Sky would have never let me see you again. He would have kept you hidden from the world until it's time for your coronation." He said. I felt my heart speed in my chest.

"Uncle Ty, why are you and dad so angry? Why can't you two just come to terms that you're different and live on in peace?"

"Trust me, I wish we could, but after the way he's treated me-"

"What about the way you've been treating him? What about the constant raids and casualties we have? What about all the funerals? The moms who lost their sons who were brave enough to choose to protect me and dad? Don't you care about any of that?" I lectured. He turned away from me and began walking out of the room.

"The only person I'll ever care about from now on, is you..." He said as he teleported somewhere. I sat in silence. He only cares about me?
