Chapter 281
They all turned to look at her.
“Jasmine what are you doing here?” He asked surprised.
And then the guards that she had managed to fight her way through came rushing in.
Grabbed her arm and started to haul her back out.
“I apologize for the disturbance my lord.” The guard said.
“Let me go.” She said struggling to break free.
Little kire was backing.
“Let her go!” Xaden snapped at the guard infuriated that she was being hurt.
And then the guard hurriedly did as he had been told.
Then he bowed and hurriedly apologized.
Jasmine turned and saw her father kneeling down to the ground, she saw Luna Maria and Jessica together.
The resentment that they had always slashed her with, and now they were cowering in fear.
“Jasmine.” Luna Maria said quickly. “It is so good to see that you are safe and well. I have been so worried about you.”
Jasmine was confused.
“Tell him. Tell him the truth that I never wanted you to leave the pack and go with them. But your father insisted I had no choice or say in the matter. You know that I have always looked at you as my own.” She said.
Jasmine could hardly believe the lies.
The lies spiling from her lips.
She looked at the people that she had been protecting.
People that she has almost murdere Xaden for and all wave of emotions that she had felt towards them was built on by rage.
And then Jasmine did something that shocked them all.
She gave Luna Maria a very dirty slap.
Luna Maria gasped as she held the side of her cheek.
She slowly looked up at Jasmine unable to belive what had just happened.
Before she could speak Jasmine gave her another dirty slap.
No one said a word.
Urma stood behind smiling.
“You hit me.” Luna Maria said holding her other cheek. She spat blood and was stunned at the force of the slap that she had released. “After everything that I did for you.”
“You did nothing for me.” Jasmine said boldly. “The first slap? That was for my mother. The second. That was for me.”
Luna Maria just looked in at her unable to say a word.
Amazed and wondering where Jasmine had all of a sudden grown her new found Witts.
Then Jasmine turned to Xaden leaving Luna Maria still dazed.
“Don’t harm them.” She said.
“Why shouldn’t I?” Xaden asked. “Just because what they did is now confirmed true does not change what you did and who you are.”
She sighed. “I know that nothing can take that away. But belive me when I tell you that can not harm her.”
“The bitch who betrayed my mother too?” Xaden asked breathing very heavily.
“No, you can kill Maria.” She said and Luna Maria quickly gasped in fear. “You could kill all of them in fact. But not before you find out.”
“Find out what?” Xaden asked.
“Your sister. That you are looking for. She is here. Right in this very room.” Jasmine expressed.
Xaden’s face went white.
They all went quiet.
He finally found his voice.
“Are you trying to tell me that you are mg sister?” He asked.
“Gods no.” She shook her head.
And at that moment everyone breathed in relief.
“Her.” She pointed at Jessica who was still cowered behind.
Xaden turned to look at Jessica.
“What joke are you trying to play Jasmine? What new games?” He asked. “That a tire daughter the one that made you a bastard.”
Jasmine shook her head. “No. She is not.”
Xaden laughed. “She does not even have my family secret. How could she possibly be my sister?”
Then Jasmine turned to Urma and Luna Maria’s face began to go white.
“Gold dust was used on her. It subdued her true bloodline.” Urma said and she blew some dust in the air.
Jessica was equally lost.
Barely up to ten seconds after Urma blew the dust.
The atmosphere changed and there was a different scent.
It was powerful and yet feminine.
And it came from Jessica.
Xaden’s eyes went straight to her.
His blood hounded and then his wolf howled and Jessica’s wolf howled too in response.
“Gods.” Xaden said in disbelief.
Jessica who had been take over by the force of Xaden’s wolf call was still confused.
“Mother what are they talking about?” Jessica asked.
Luna Maria gently cupped her cheek. “Nothing. All lies. They are trying to take you away from me.”
“Why do I smell different from you mother?” Jessica asked in shock.
“Because you were stolen.” Urma announced.
They all now turned to look at her.
“When Bale attacked the crescent pack, he killed all the family members, and Xaden had been holding his baby sister when he was presumed dead. She was just a little baby and Maria had always wanted a girl. Had always envied Xaden’s mother and so she stole you and raised you as your own.”
Jessica was lost for words unable to even comprehend what was going on
“You’re lying. She is my mother. This is my family. Bale is my father! You’re just evil!” Jessica screamed.
“Your mother put gold through your hair every week didn’t she?” Urma asked.
Jessica gave an uncomfortable laugh.
“Yes so? It was meant for me because I am special.” Jessica replied.
“That gold dust was mixed with herbs that would tamper with your scent and in place make you smell like them. It was why when Xaden came here he could not scent you.” Urma explained.
Jessica put her hand through her hair and then she was shocked to see that her hair seemed to feel different.
Unknown to her it was changing color from blonder gradually to raven black.
Xaden was too stunned to move.
“You look like mother.” He said and then he hugged her.
Hugged her so tight to him.
There was no doubt that this was his sister.,
The only blood relative he had.
