Chapter 75 

Adrian’s POV 

I watched her body shake with rage as she asked the fake people in front of us questions. Everybody looked at them expectantly and they must have realized that their secret has been leaked. 

The woman looked pale but the man still maintained a strong front. He laughed tensely before giving a nervous smile. “Wha–what are you talking about, Lola? I treated you like family and loved you like my own daughter. I don’t get where this accusation is coming from. You’re being unreasonable right now“, he said shakily. I could hear how fast his heart was beating and I almost laughed at his pathetic trial. 

“I’m so sorry, uncle Andrew. How stupid of me to think that you’d ever do such a thing to me. I must have lost my memories for a little while. Care to juggle my memory?” She said calmly and I saw fears in his eyes before he masked it. 

She walked majestically towards an empty chair and sat down while we waited for them to start talking. Daxon made a sound that showed that he was satisfied and proud in my head. I smirked at them before. going over to sit beside her. She automatically held my hand and I felt how much she was shaking despite her brave facade and I couldn’t be more proud of her. 

“If you’d please“, Dad said after a while and he nodded before clearing his throat. He struggled with what to say for a while before Lola cut in. 

“I see that you’re having a hard time talking about that incident. It must have been hard on you. Am I right, Aunt Natalie, Uncle Andrew?” She asked and I could see that her rage was already trying to overcome her so I squeezed her hand to calm her down a bit. 

The woman wrung her hands together more and looked like she was about to cry but the man nodded. 

“The nerves of the sly bastard“, Daxon growled in my head as I resisted the urge to growl out loud. “Yo Daxon, chill out. We need to calm down for Lola. She wants to do this by herself and should be allowed to“, I said but Daxon still wasn’t calming down. 

I couldn’t blame him because left to me, I’d have torn them apart the moment I set my eyes on them. 

“I’d ask you questions to speed this up, okay?” She said with an air of authority and even dad looked proud of her. 

“What happened to Mom and Dad?” She asked with a death glare. The man relaxed and seemed to have everything under control. 

“Silly Lola. They were killed by rogues of course. This is a known tragedy in the wolf world“, he replied. And he was right, that was the story everyone in the wolf world knew. It was during the time I lost my sister too so we were not able to look into it. Those bastards planned it well. 

“Do I have a younger brother?” His eyes widened in shock at this question and it took him a while to recover. “No, no, of course not. You’re an only child, Lola. How did you come up with these 

questions?” He said with a nervous laugh but Lola wasn’t having any of it. 

The wind around us changed and I knew Jasmine was in charge. They looked terribly terrified of the change in room and Natalie, like Lola identified the woman, started crying. 

“Andrew, I’m going to give you another chance to redeem yourself and you better not waste it“, she said, almost intimidating me but I knew it wasn’t directed at me so I relaxed. “Now, I ask again, what happened to 

my parents?” She asked with venom dripping from her words. 

“Lola, I already told you all that happened. I already told you everything, what more do you want me to……“, he wasn’t done with his words when Lola’s hair suddenly started to spark and her eyes glowed brighter than they did the last time. Outside, the earlier sunny weather had changed to a thunderstorm and I was wowed. I have never seen her so angry before. 

He was about to talk again when suddenly he was hit with a spark of lightning causing him to cry out in pain. Lola was about to hit him. with another one when Natalie began to speak.. 

“I’d say it. I’d tell you everything you want to know, please stop“, she wailed and pleaded but Lola was still glowing and breathing really hard. 

“Hey, hey, it’s okay baby. We need them alive to be able to question them, remember?” I cooed to her and that was when she eventually calmed down. 

“Speak!” She commanded, her voice echoing throughout the entire room. “What about him?” Natalie asked, pointing to her husband that was writhing in pain. “He caused me pain for eight years, he should be able to withstand that for as long as your narration takes. If you don’t want to be like him, I suggest you start speaking now“, she said before she took her seat. 

Natalie looked at her mate before she started speaking. “Yes, yes, we know about the death of your parents“, she sobbed out and I felt Lola stiffen with anger beside me. “And yes, you had a brother. He died alongside your parents in the rogue incident“, she confessed. 

From the corner of my eyes, I saw Mom cover her mouth with her hands and Dad was rigid with rage. “How old was he? Why wasn’t he spared? Why, why did you do it?” Lola’s voice broke towards the end 

and I knew she was on the verge of breaking down. 

“He, he was j–just si–six months“, she stammered out and the only thing that stood between her and death was that we needed to hear her confession. “You aided in the death of a six month old?” Mom asked. I did not need to look at her to know that she was crying already. 

“If he had been spared, our secrets would have been leaked“, she sobbed harder. Lola started crying beside me and I held her to my chest. 

These motherfuckers will pay dearly. I promise. 

“I’m sorry, Lola. I’m so sorry. We’d have been killed, all of us would have been wiped out“, she kept repeating. “Why? Why did you do that? Mom treated you like a sister and that was all you could do?” She screamed in anger with tears streaming down her cheeks and my heart broke for her. 

“We were threatened, Lola. There was nothing we could do. I’m sorry, I’m so sorry“, she kept crying. 

“Who? Who threatened you?” Dad asked and we all listened carefully to hear her. 

“Elias. It was Elias Stone, the king of rogues“.
