| took her into my arms in a hug, dropping a kiss on her head and whispering comforting words into her ears. |
didn’t want to make her feel worse about the situation. That wasn’t going to help either of us at all.
“Is there anything else that you remember?” | asked, with my arms still wrapped around her, stroking her hair
gently.
“Earlier this morning while | was in the kitchen with Christie, Emilia cinto the kitchen from the garden. It was
obvious that she had cfrom the woods. Her hands and fingers were streaked with dirt and even her
pajamas. I'm sure she didn’t expect that we would be up so early, but of course when we asked questions she
was only hostile to us before she exited the kitchen.” Freya finished.
That was all the information | needed, Emilia was responsible for poisoning Jessy and she would pay with her life
whether or not Jessy survived it. | was more than happy for the self control that | had because all that | wanted in
this moment was to storm out of the room and claw the maids brain out.
But | couldn't do that, not right away. | needed to be here for Freya, who was still crying.

“She poisoned Jessy, she has tried to take my baby’s life and there's nothing | can do now except hope and pray.
And this is my fault. She has to pay.” Freya said, struggling within my hold.
It was obvious how weak her entire body was because she could barely even struggle properly. | knew how much
this entire thing was for her and it painedmore than | could express.
“It’s not your
fault Freya. Jessy is going to be fine, I trust Clara a lot and about Emilia, just leave her toFreya. You have to
truston this one.” | said.
Freya cried for a very long tafter that, she switched between muttering about how worried she was about
Jessy and how
angry
she was at Emilia. And through it all, | only continued to feed her as much comfort and love as | could.
And soon her eyes were dropping with exhaustion. It wasn’t long after then that her eyes fell shut completely. |
felt relieved watching her sleep because it meant bliss. Even if it was only going to be momentarily | knew that
she was better off asleep
for now.
Placing a kiss on her forehead, | laid her properly on the bed and pulled the sheets higher up her frame.
Letting out a deep breath, I let my thoughts run around. The two people that I loved and valued so much, were in
a lot of pain and it was all because of one person, | didn’t know what she hoped to achieve with this, but that
was the thing. | didn’t care one bit.
| exited the room and made a beeline for my office, the only space that was the best for thinking, but on my way
I found the head maid.
“Zoe, what are you doing up here?” | didn’t need any one of them around Jessy. | already knew who did it but
until I was satisfied that she was working alone, | didn’t trust any of the maids to be around Freya and Jessy.
“Oh Master, | was looking for you. Beta Smith is downstairs and he wanted to speak with you? She delivered.
Smith had been unable to attend Jessy’s party. He gave sshitty excuse about being busy but | knew it was
bullshit. Smith adored Jessy a lot and he would give an arm to be around the little girl, so the fact that he had
turned down the invitation was surprising.
What was even more surprising was the fact that he was here now, after the party.

“Send him up here, tell him to meetin my office and then when you get back to the quartes Ask Emilia to
wait in the punishment room for me.” | said.
The maids eyes widened in shock at my instruction but she nodded her head in understanding, scurrying out of
my presence immediately.
Things were about to get ugly for someone. Or maybe speople, because there was no way that Emilia would
have been planning this alone. No matter how evil her intentions were, | knew that there was no way in hell that
she would have been able to pull through this on her own.
The words of the rogue that | had tortured stback, flashed through my mind. There were people who
knew about myself, Freya and Jessy and they wanted to bring harm to us.
| didn’t care what it would take, | was going to find every last one of these people involved with messing with my
family, and blood was going to run.
