"Why do you want my daughter" my mother asks a question of her own.
"I don't have to answer to you. But since these are your last moments, I will humor you. I want your daughter to control my brother. I want power, I need control. My ex-brother has both in abundance. If I can't get the power of my own, then It's powerful enough then I can have some semblance of power by controlling my brother" he laughs like a maniac.
Little Thea got scared of this boogie man.
"You will never be able to do that. Your brother knows how to protect what belongs to him" my mother promises with a cold voice.
"Ha ha.. Protect what belongs to him? Do you know how I killed your dear daughter in her previous life? That too right in front of my dearest brother" he laughs at his joke.
My mother smiles at him like he is stupid.
"He is loyal to his blood and responsibilities. If you think his love and loyalty are his weakness, then wait and watch his love becoming his strength

Althea Revealed
Darius povDarius sat near the edge of the lake remembering their last night together. If she would have been open about the situation she was in back then, then things would have been different. If he confessed about his feelings, maybe then she would have opened up about what happened to her and what's happening with Ornan.Miscommunication and assuming that it won't work between them is the reason why they had faced so much grief and had to stay away from each other for so long.He beat himself up for not confessing his feelings towards her earlier.
