Broken By My Family: Now They Want Me Back Chapter 18
Chapter 18Solene's POVWhat explanation did he want from me? I’d never seen that bottle in my life and my face must have said as much because he scoffed.“Will you still deny it?” First you were going on about no evidence and now, a bottle has been found under your bed but you’re still acting?”“Hold on.” The beta cut in gruffly. “The powder in the bottle resembles the residue but it’ll need testing for final confirmation.”I sank back into my chair weakly. Any more suspense and I wouldn’t be able to take it anymore.The extra testing took almost an hour and by the end, the bottle's contents matched.I sat in the small room near the kitchens, my hands folded in my lap, and listened as the Beta delivered the results."The residue in the bottle is identical to the compound found in the prince's food," he said, his voice flat. "The concentration is the same. The composition is the same. There's no doubt—this is the drug that was used."Kellan was on his feet before the Beta finished sp

Chapter 17Solene's POVWhile Mira gave her account of everything that had happened. My mind kept straying back to that moment.Elise would have had to be fast. In the millisecond that my head was turned away from her to pray my hand from Kelian’s, she’d managed to drug the meal, then cover the dish before I turned back and plucked the tray from her hand.My heart pounded in my ears, but I was almost sure. There was no way she’d have completed all that without being sloppy.Maybe it was a gut feeling or just because I knew Elise well, but I was almost certain. If I wanted proof, then I’d have to go back to the corridor and that exact spot when I’d lost sight of the food tray.“I understand, what you’re saying.” Elise put a hand to her chest as she addressed Mira. Ever the benevolent house lady. “But you have to understand. Nothing you’ve said proves Solene’s innocence. I mean, she’s my sister. I don’t wish to see her harming anyone b- but.” She paused and shook her head in disappoint

Chapter 16 Solene's POVThe tension in the air was so taut, you could cut through it with a butter knife. Everyone stood in silence as we waited for the royal healer to conclude reading the tests he adjusted in front of his face.The results were not out yet. But by the door— Kelian and Adrian who had left his men searching my room, were already shooting me disappointed looks.My hands fistsed by my side, and I did my best to ignore, waiting for the healer to finish as well.“I’m done.” He finally announced, his forehead wrinkled in a frown as he turned to the Alpha. “I’m afraid, Alpha. The results confirm our original suspicions. Preliminary test results show the presence of a concentrated sedative compound. Something illegal— in layman’s terms. Hard drugs. It would have been enough to stop his heart if we hadn't intervened when we did."A wave of shock seemed to go through the room. Servants clustered by the door, murmuring as the tension rose even higher.I wasn’t guilty, and ye

Chapter 15Solene's POVThe prince was already waiting when I arrived.He sat at the small table by the window, his hands folded in front of him, his eyes fixed on the door. The moment he saw me, his face split into that wide, childlike grin."You came!""I said I would." I set the tray down between us. "But you should have started eating. You didn't have to wait for me."He shook his head firmly. "We eat together. That's the rule."I didn't ask what rule. I just sat down across from him and watched as he finally reached for the food.The servants had already checked it—the Beta insisted, his expression grim. I didn't blame him. After everything that had happened, I wouldn't have trusted the kitchens either.The prince took a bite of bread. Then another. He was smiling, his shoulders relaxed, and for a moment, I let myself relax too.Then he stopped chewing and his hand went to his throat."Are you alright?" I asked.He didn't answer. His face was turning red, then purple, and his eye

Chapter 14Solene's POVThe next morning, the Beta found me in the garden.I'd been sitting on a stone bench near the hedge, watching the sun rise above the treeline and trying to convince myself that the cold air was good for my leg. It wasn't. But it was better than being inside, where every corner held a memory I didn't want to face."Lady Solene."I looked up. The Beta stood a few paces away, his expression carefully neutral."The prince has asked to dine with you."I blinked. "What?""He's been asking all day. He won't eat unless you're there." The Beta paused. "I know it's an unusual request. But he's... particular about these things. And he's grown attached to you."I thought of the prince—his shy smile, the bread he'd saved for me, the way he'd stood between me and the housekeeper. He was just a boy. A boy who'd been looking for his sister for years."Alright," I said.The Beta nodded and led me back to the estate.---Mira was waiting for me in the kitchens, her arms wrapped

Chapter 13Solene's POVI got myself into this position a little too much. Essentially— Adrian at my throat. King finds some wound or scar. Summons Iris immediately. Rinse repeat.At this point, I wasn’t sure who was more tired of seeing the other. Me, of grimacing every time Iris drew near. Or Iris being summoned for every new wound or scrape.“And you’re sure, this is the last.” She asked, a smile playing on her lips as she finished applying the salve over my needle wounds. “You’re not hiding some other wound or sore scar under your clothes are you?”She asked me but from the face she made. It was almost like she had half a mind to order me to undress. Gods no.I pulled my arm back. Smiling but firmly. “I’m sure. I’m fine.”She looked unconvinced but still nodded as I murmured. “Thank you for your help.”In my defense, what did the King expect me to do? List all the wounds I carried or had experienced three years in the death camp?Left to me, the needle marks weren’t even something
