INTERROGATION

"Yes Adira, that's exactly what I am saying!"

"Seriously?" Adira scoffs, and a grin settles at the corner of her lips. "You really think I'd believe that? Like seriously that's the best you could come up with?"

"Adira, it's not a matter of believing. It's a matter of being truthful, whether you believe it or not. It is the truth."

"Fine…." She folded her hand on her chest. "Let's say I believe what you're saying, which I don't, why would you still go through all this trouble just to get me away from the pack and kill me, knowing I'm basically family?"

"Don't you dare say that, you are no family of mine, but an abomination to my lineage. And the cause of my innocent daughter's death!"

The grin on her face quickly became engulfed with a serious look as she took an abrupt step backwards, memories of all the times they told her she was the cause of her mother's death back at the conclave, flashed through her head. "What did you just say?" She added, staring vigorously at Adolphus.
