CHAPTER 24

Lyra's POV.

Leading her towards victory seems like an impossible thing and I was hoping not to lose my mind in the past I just because there were a lot of things that I have pushed me back

I have been thinking twice but nothing was able to come up and I kept hoping that now we're able to escape before Lucius could get caught.

Kael wasn't one person that allowed traitors to roam around freely. He was interested in bringing them that whether or not they agreed to it and I was one of the people who needed to be in charge of my emotions and make sure that a lot of things were not flopping.

I kept staring at both of them.

"Why is nobody telling me anything?"

Camille looked like she had already been in the know and was only waiting for him to arrive.

Our eyes crossed. Our lips were a little bit hesitant to prove what was wrong.

All I needed was to be able to switch camps.

"Oh, right. If we are taking risks I guess this is the first time for us to also come clear and show our hands or else it's going to be a disaster." I said.

I was only giving them an opportunity to tell me the truth and not leave me hanging on just trying to figure out life on my own when I should have been doing something else tangible with my time and energy.

"We are running down south but I don't think you're going to be part of Us. We initially wanted you to be the collateral damage." Camille said, with no sense of decorum.

"May I have a word with you?" I turned to Lucius.

He wasn't hoping that I was not going to find out that he was trying to push me away as gently as he could

"This is not the time for you to start asking if anybody is on your side or not. We have to do what is right and get on with it. The rest things would find their way." He dismissed my worries instantly.

Of course he was going to act like I was overreacting and I needed to get my head tracked but that wasn't going to happen anymore as I kept watching.

"I am not in any way prepared to fight this battle on my own and you decide to push me away to the wolves? Haven't you any sympathy or what this could bring?" I demanded.

There were many things that I was trying to scale over but none of them made any sense, instead it felt like I was only just pushing through an invisible wall that was never going to crack no matter how much I shoved.

"Are you trying to leave me hung and dry around here?"

It was easier to fall into the hands of the people whom I imagine was never going to do any of these wrongs to me but watching him now I have another mentality that had me jumping back in place

"Oh, right... I see what you're doing." I drew it out.

Some people might think that it was a little bit too harsh but that needed to be done just to make sure that they recognize that I was not going to be part of those people who could be twisted and turned around.

I had my mind focused on what I wanted to achieve and until I was able to get that every other thing was going to take the back seat while I just proceeded with everything that I thought that I wanted to do.

It was as easy as that and I was going to stand by it till the end of time until I was tired and we didn't want to have any interaction with anybody anymore.

It was stupid for anybody to be thinking that they would be able to blind side me when it came to things like this because of the belief that I didn't have the mom power required to fight for my rights.

I also looked around for a while looking for a sufficient ally that was not going to ridicule my effort to make it look like I was doing too much.

"So, what is the major reason why you want to get out of this place when I have not given the order?" He demanded.

Him staying in plain sight was everything that I needed to know that I was not completely as safe as I thought I was and I needed to do something about it to make myself hidden from the public.

Landing in a ditch wasn't part of the plan and no matter how much they wanted to twist it around I was always going to be a step ahead.

"So, is there anything I need to be aware of in a game that's going to keep me in perspective? Am I supposed to just remain oblivious until the end of time?" I asked.

"There are no surprises if that's what you're asking but I'm also sure that if you commit yourself to this, you'll be able to see how far you have gotten in a short time. Diving into old matters is not going to help things so why don't we just focus on the present."

I didn't respond to him immediately because I already knew how this was going to end but I managed to focus my attention on what I believed was better.

If I was going to be fighting anybody then I needed to come with my blade sharpened or just let it slide.

"I don't know what to say but I'm not going to let my neck get stuck out here. If there's going to be any plan and you don't think that it is wise to inform me then I'm not useful around here!" I stated.

He wanted to call me back but I guess he decided against it which I loved because I wouldn't have loved to waste time.
