I snarl as | push Jai out of the way, making it just in tas Zade is ready to rip his heart out.
Seeing my son for the first twith an expression of hatred twisting his face is not what a father hopes for. He
turns the gun, cocking the trigger as he turns it
on me.
There's recognition in his eyes and for a fraction of a second, | feel he is about to lower the gun, but that
expression vanishes pretty quickly as resentment and rage replace it.
“Zade, I'm Hugh, your father.”
“You ain't no fucking father of mine,” he snarls venomously, pulling the trigger without mercy. | dodge and Jai-
lunges at him, throwing him back, only to be thrown to the ground violently by Zade.
It's clear from the state Jai is in that he had been in wolf form. | never knew he could shift, but | am proud of him.
Everyone has pushed themselves to the limit, proving that their faith in the goddess remained.
“Are you alright Jai!” | growl as | run over to him. He’s in a bad state. There's blood pouring from his shoulder, left
flank, and his stomach. “You need to get out of here,” | mutter, stepping in front of him as | flex my hands,
watching Zade, who is observingwith hatred, what I just did clearly triggered his anger. “You're a fucking
facade!” he snarls, launching himself at me. “Ill finish you first before | go find your precious little princess!”

The howls and shouts from aroundare deafening, but even then, it feels like it’s just the two of us.
| can see myself in him, although he does reminda little of Adam too, and it does hurt knowing he is far too
gone to save...
If only | had known years ago. | could have saved him...
“Too fucking late for that, way too fucking late! Don’t act like | don’t know the truth!” He hisses as he pulls out a
knife, spinning it before he grabs it by the hilt- and lunges at me.

I duck. | too have trained for years of my life. Even if | am no longer as young or fast as him, | am no fool...
I duck and dodge his attacks, aiming a kick in his stomach, only for him to bend backwards and swing his knife at
I move back, almost falling, but I aim a kick at his shin before backing away to regain myself.
“If this is about why | never cto find you, | never knew you made it... Your mother had an entire story
made...”
He throws his head back, letting off a bitter laugh. “You really are a fucking loser. | know the truth. | know that
you ain't my fucking father. Adam Toussaint was my father. Hate to break it to ya if you didn’t know that shit!” he
spits as he
comes atagain.
Who told him that?
They are my children... there is no doubt about that, but someone clearly manipulated the truth.
| see Jai move from the corner of my eyes, going for a discarded gun. As much as | know Zade is dangerous, |
need him to know the truth.
“Whoever told you that was lying! You and Zaia are mine,and your mother were fated mates! You are my
son!”
“I don’t buy your bullshit. | know you killed my father!” He snarls as the knife slices through my shoulder, pain
burning throughas | jump back, breathing hard.
How much distrust and hatred have they embedded in him?
“I am not lying, | am not saying forgivebecause | should have seen through Melanie's lies... but | don’t want
you to find out later and-"
Jai pulls the trigger and Zade ducks, his aura raging around him as he turns on Jai, sending a blast in his direction
that sends him flying to the ground, but Jai still shoots again and this tit connects.

Zade grunts as he touches his left leg and looks at the blood on his fingers.
Nice strategy to play decoy.” He says mockingly, ignoring Jai and turning his eye on me. | wonder what happened

I doubt he'll want to share that with me.

Zade’s powerful aura is swirling around him dangerously, and no one is managing to get close.
