The Rightful Heirs のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Ambrose and Gavril stared at one another in silence as the King processed the information he has been given. Yesterday she woke up an only child, now she had two brothers?"You're lying. Saoirse would have told me if our son was still alive.""She would have if she had been made aware. Marius ordered me to take him to one of the witch hunters who would dispose of him. Instead, I hid him somewhere he wouldn't be found. My promise to protect your children wasn't just for the twins.""Alexander, come in here, now," Gavril bellowed towards the kitchen. "I want you to tell me if he is lying. Go ahead, tell him what you told us.""Their firstborn child is still alive."The teacher's eyes doubled in size as he listened to the words. Looking back and forth between the two of them. He wasn't lying, she could tell."Not a lie. You mean he has been a

Saber's POV"I knew things were going to get interesting and fast, but I didn't think it would be the next morning," Theo lazily leaned against the wall, watching everyone run around."Who's Ambrose?""He works for the guy who killed your mother.""Why is he at Genevieve's house?" Saber questioned, a little afraid of the answer."Your guess is as good as mine.""Maybe you should be a little more concerned one of The Four got this close to one of the twins, Theo." Davina appeared far less bored than her stepbrother."Hey, I am concerned. But my focus is supposed to be on protecting Saber,

Saber's POVAfter driving for almost an hour, they finally pull into the parking garage of a small office building. A little underwhelming. Although Saber was aware the Constellation was both secret and underground, part of him expected something a bit more interesting."This is one of several entrances. The New York base spreads underneath most of the state as well as part of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Try not to draw too much attention to any of them."Gavril made no attempt to leave the vehicle as the security guards got out."Anytime higher-up personnel enter or exit a checkpoint, security does a sweep of the area. Making sure they weren't followed or someone isn't waiting for them when they return. We wait until they give the all-clear before heading in.""Makes sense."One of the guards waved to the driver to let them out.The inside of the building was less remarkable than the outside. Everyone was dresse

Ambrose's POVAmbrose had no idea what would be waiting for him as he pulled up to the compound. Sure his family wouldn't harm him, but he was unable to say the same about Marius. Unsure if his siblings would be around to stop the man if he did try something.Walking in, the house was eerily quiet. Wasn't even noon yet, more activity should be going on around the place. Figuring out some kind of lie to explain why he was here, he found his way to Marius's office. Slightly surprised, when he knocked on the door and the man answered."What are you doing here? You are to be finding out what the girl has learned this weekend.""She was in an accident this morning, and they took her to the hospital. Probably staying overnight. Where is everyone?""The Collective wanted to borrow some people for a rather large nest they found. Therefore, half of them are off training with whoever needed the help. The rest are either out on assignments

Saber's POVSpent most of the rest of the day being shown around by Nox. Hard to believe everything was underground. By the time they returned, Nox had requested a long list of books to be delivered to Saber's room. Figured they would help answer many of his burning questions. Read through about half of one before he realized how tired he was and decided to go to bed.As he drifted off to sleep, he found himself back in the forest. Unlike every previous visit, it was storming. Squinting through the rain and barely making out the treeline, he quickly started running, trying to take cover. The rain, like needles on his skin, took over where the fog disappeared. Making finding his way nearly impossible.The rain almost instantly stopped. Found himself looking at a cave learning into the side of the mountain with the forest behind him. Nothing about this place made
