Chapter 29 - Breaking

-Angeline-

That afternoon, just like what Ethan promised, he made sure that the oath-taking would take place in the house where he had provided me with just a few people.

We all gathered in the living room where his Beta and Gamma stood on either side of him while Fiona and Merik sat on the couch near them.

Raja sat on the opposite couch while an old man that I hadn’t met yet sat beside Raja.

The center table was moved to the side so that I could stand in front of Ethan when I started to take my oath.

“Thank you for taking your time to join us,” Ethan started to say as he greeted the old man and Raja. “And I will forever be in your debt for keeping this all between all of us.”

With that, he pricked his fingers and dropped his blood on a wine glass. The rest of the people in the room did the same thing he did and when the last one placed his blood on the wine glass he gave it back to Ethan who took a sip from the glass with wine mixed with their blood and then passed it all around.
