Chapter 0464 *You were going to run away from your family?" Ryken demands. "Did you even think about us? Did you even care whatand your mother would think?" *You said I'm just like Blair!" Kade snaps. I heard you and mum." "You are wrong. We said we didn't want you to end up like your sister." Kade shakes his head as Dane moves over to a very pale Neah. She looks close to throwing up, but I keep my mouth shut.
*Dane, Neah," Ryken mutters. "How do you wish to punish my son?" *I have one more question." Neah frowns, bringing her hand to her mouth as she pauses to breathe deeply. "How was Cooper talking to you?" "He cto my room." Kade whispers "He was in my house?!" Ryken snaps *Likely projection." Dane replies. "Not physically here." "Only here?" Neah asks and Kade nods *How many other kids has he been talking to, without anyone knowing?" Dane mutters in frustration.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"None." Kade pipes up. "He toldthey weren't good enough." *Kade, that is what bastards like him say." Ryken tells his son.
*He promised." "People like that, make promises that don't mean anything." Dane tells the little shit. "He only wants you to do his dirty work for him. He doesn't care that you get in trouble." *No. No. He said I was strong. That I was good. That I could do this. I'm his favourite." "He doesn't see it." I tell the adults. "He doesn't see what was being done to him as wrong. You are not going to get through to him." *Then what do you suggest?" Dane asks "A few nights in the dungeon might do him sgood." *You want to put my kid in the dungeons?" Ryken scoffs "It worked for your other kid." "She is an adult. He is not." "Letguess, your idea is to bind him. Something that won't really affect him until he is actually old enough to gain his Lycan abilities? So by your thinking, we should punish him later for something he did now?" Ryken stares at me, his brows slowly knitting together in anger. "You can't put him in the dungeon. He is eight." *Brax is right." Neah tells Ryken. "I know what it's like to be bound and honestly, I would rather have died. He will spend a few days in the dungeon and we will re-evaluate." She looks at Ryken. "No visitors." He looks at his son, like properly looks at him for the first tsince we walked in the house.
"Don't say it." Blair creeps out through the door that she had been peeking out of when we first arrived. "Don't say it Ryken, because he will never be the same." "Go back to your room!" Ryken snaps.
"I'm just trying..." "Room, this isn't your business." Blair retreats to her room as Ryken accepts Kade's punishment.
Dane pulls a protesting Kade to his feet and with a hand on his shoulder, directs him to the front door. Ryken doesn't say anything else, in fact he walks out of the room as Kade calls for him.
I follow Dane and Neah to the dungeons. The moment Samara catches sight of me, she takes a few steps back until she is pressed against the rear wall. Her eyes hover on me. Not out of fear, but anger. "Who is that?" She asks quietly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Cooper got to him." Neah tells her as Dane locks Kade in a cell "He's a kid." She mutters in disgust *Not his style?" I ask She steps forwards, her fingers curling around the bars as she frowns and shakes her head. "He doesn't like children." I was almost surprised at how forward she is with her answer, but I see that she is telling the truth.
"Is this what he is doing now? Screwing up children?' She asks
"He did it to you." Neah comes to a stop next toas she looks in ath Samara "And just like him, you couldn't see what he was doing was wrong."
"A part ofdid. And I...I just let it happen. Maybe," she drops to am whisper. "I can help. I can talk to him. Am I allowed to tell him who I am?" She glances over to where Dane is talking to Kade.
"Within reason." Neah mutters "I understand."
I didn't. There was clearly a secret I didn't know. I follow Neah up the m steps. "Are you going to tellwhat that was about? She is his sister, so what is it she isn't allowed to tell him?" Neah stares back at me. "What is it that you are not telling me?" X
