Chapter 37
No one came to see him for the53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyAKKTT79Y
first day. Aside from some lukewarm water and moldy bread, he hadn’t had53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobmBbu6d4h
anything to eat either. He spent his time curled in the corner allowing his53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoSeo6GDCD
negative thoughts to control his mind. He thought about his failure at protecting53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfWKsk3Vad
Malcolm that brought him to this place, forcing him on the run because he53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tmOHbW31i
hadn’t been prepared. If they had taken a little more time to think about it,53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODZ2stSyZx
they should have been aware that there could have been another traitor amongst53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAokXWIynG
them. Cranton, the one who vetted all the servants, the closest to the king,53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhkR39jcsO
and able to move unseen. There were clues, but they all ignored them.
Now his best friend, the one who53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRQ8EyJEQI
risked everything for him, might be in jail as well, or in trouble at the very53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHBE0xj7Dj
least. He betrayed his vow all for the sake of friendship. At the very least he53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7wArg2SrN
could be removed from the Blades. At least he had someone to fall back on, if53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDsFnCnAek
this went south, Vander had no one. He didn’t even know where his grandfather53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxcBTmWfTY
had gone and with no way to reach him, he had no one. The despair was too53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcinJBx8Eyy
great, so he buried himself inside his own mind hoping that things would get53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBgsuzY4AZ
better.
The demon scraped against his mind53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsK2Jruhaj
begging to be released. He would make all those who hurt them suffer53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1z5QYaCwc
unimaginable pain. He could start by removing their skin piece by piece until53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17pTGkDWEk
they passed out from the pain. Then he would carve out their organs with his53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQHSW3uczj
bare hands, not stopping even after the body died. Then they would be tossed to53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlngl53fhga
the forest for the animals to have their fill. He begged, pleaded and53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvJRQtijxR
threatened, but if there was hope, Vander would not give in. No matter how much53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dxAFDVIrh
he wanted to.
He wasn’t sure how long it had53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEd6o0v92H
been, but eventually he heard the door open. Based on the sounds their feet53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1NkbLx6Cb
made, there were four people coming down to see him. None of them, except one,53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjwG4PgHC7
was wearing armor. He recognized her scent clearly compared to the others.53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1blMkBuzt
According to the book, and her, the two of them were bonded. Despite knowing53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmP6lRGCel
nothing about her, he didn’t want her to see him like this so he hid closer to53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZ7k6qmUoS
the shadows hoping it would be enough. It wasn’t.
“Come out, Vander.” Her voice was53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVDipVnSaF
soft, full of warmth. He felt the presence of Atza beckoning him, pushing the53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNJRdHZmTG
demon further into the recesses of his mind. He looked over to see her kind53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSdVhqJBr7
expression staring at him without hate or malice. In the face she looked53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNCEN5LIMU
worried. Her eyes were sunken in. Her normally glossy hair hung loose around53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNu36e5lkXy
her face. In the three months he had been missing, she lost quite a bit of53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yCZAPmTe7
weight.
The others she was with didn’t53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvs3dB0dpUa
really surprise him except Whitesun was there. He had no idea why the southern53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbel9uN0RNG
warden was there to see him, but he couldn’t think of any good reasons. Maybe53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiINKgKpvZN
the council had finally made their judgement.
“Have you decided what you were53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcopSwrOem
going to do with me?” Vander asked. He looked over at Cuvera who met his stare53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEHSOr9gLG
with his own.
“The council is split.” Cuvera53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3yT5gdxeE
explained. “There are many who don’t believe you capable of killing my father,53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0vr1m0A6p
but they also don’t believe that Peyton would have been capable either. Then53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkejT7jWDJL
there are those who think you did do it, and nothing would convince them53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSExDT0yMlZ
otherwise.”
“Not once did we doubt you,53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXYhUnq3qs
Vander.” Kiara’s voice was kind. “We were hurt that you felt you couldn’t stay53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZ93BtdVQQ
and plead your case, but based on the considerable resources that were spent to53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuUnzMCeXe
track you down, as well as the venomous rhetoric that was spread against you,53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7d2Voglqg
it ended up being for the best. You wouldn’t be safe here, not with the53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4wCU2UrRd
influence many of the nobles have in the city.”
“Then why am I still locked up?”53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbASfHPM4d
he asked. “If you believe me, why keep me here?”
“Because we can’t release you53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNULY8TCUR
without proof that Peyton killed my father.” Cuvera explained. “As it stands53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGTrtvOEF8
it’s your word against his and he has more sway amongst the nobles. I know53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcj8XTkYDq
you’re innocent, but they know that I would protect you because we are practically53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9YHInKBrI
brothers.”
“How do you know I’m innocent?”53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0QhbCNjjB
Vander countered. “I could be the monster they think I am.”
“Vander!” Eliza gasped. “Don’t say53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhDa1SJ6qm
things like that.”
“I know because I saw what53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMshf9tvk5K
happened.” Cuvera sighed. “A week after my father died, the ceremony to take53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yAufHrKQp
the shard of Humjir into me was performed. I saw everything leading up to his53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJEFilhflk
final moments, including him telling you to run with his dying breath. I’ve53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxq2kF1MGHe
known him for months, but Peyton has the power now that my father’s gone. I53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcQG4rfehh
can’t do a thing.”
“However, I do.” Whitesun spoke53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTCTsU7cnC
softly. “Even though I am the farthest of all the Warden’s from the city,53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRTHIsYx9V
Malcolm and I were good friends. I believe you Vander. I think you are a kind53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWmFZs98NL
soul despite the stigma surrounding you, I can help you.”
“How?” Vander stared at the man, a53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJPivei6vr
stranger. He couldn’t quite believe someone would be willing to help him just53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkYZceQl2V
for no reason. There had to be another motive, but he would be damned if he53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwo2Plk1svq
could think of one.
“You let me worry about that.”53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeGM8LZwNl
Whitesun held out his hand through the bars. Vander studied it for a moment53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTLk5wxLaR
before accepting it. The two of them held hands for a few minutes past what53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPuL8XY6Dp
Vander was comfortable with, but before he could say anything, Whitesun let his53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvNwLE6etI
hand go. “I wanted to see what kind of person you were, Captain.”
“What have you discovered,53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFafxtl4pem
Warden?” Vander bit back.
“You are a principled man devoted53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywQOIwTs4d
to your goal of protecting those you love.” Whitesun smiled. “There is no way53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FmqlP5nUz
you would have killed your surrogate father, no matter what may have happened53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78TAeOlGFn
between the two of you.”
“You gained all that from shaking53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnejbekPCue
my hand?” Vander shook his head. “Excuse me if I don’t believe you.”
“No,” Whitesun laughed. “I got53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyjUj2yt1z
that from talking to your friends. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have some damage53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnbKoezB5w
control to do.” With that he excused himself by heading back up the stairs.
“If anyone can help you, it’s53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznjhKgHSit
Malakai.” Cuvera smiled. “You protected us from the Serpents, now allow us to53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13Qp9P7oE6
help you.”
“Thank you.” Vander embraced his53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6Zd87uLxh
friend, though it wasn’t complete due to the bar standing between the two of53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmo7zwgXwZJ
them. “After this is done, I will devote my sword to you and you are alone.”
“To us, Vander.” Cuvera wrapped a53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1dZcL3mOB
possessive arm around his wife. “And our child who we are going to name for my53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz55MtLFHy
father and your grandfather: Malcolm Charles Elan.”
“Or Mary Charlie Elan.” Kiara53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKEDxuAM4E
interrupted. “If it’s a girl.”
“Either way, we want you to be its53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddxTtxOHBi
guard parent if anything were to happen to us.” Cuvera smiled. “Both you and53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSX5WBzoHK
Eliza, even though she already agreed.” Vander was touched, but he knew that53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOKe3X2kE5
there was still a lot of work to be done before that would become a reality.53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hfHeZioZz
Starting with him being released.
“Provided I am released, I will.”
“Excellent.” Cuvera grinned, but53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXOYmRyCxe
after a moment, he became a little more serious. “I need you tell me everything53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDc5kixLM7
you can about this assassin who killed Humi. If someone this dangerous is in my53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLf5BTYEzfV
city, I need to know everything I can about them.”
“I didn’t know about them until my53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTWRjtupDv
attack on the Green Serpent base.” Vander explained. “I found a handwritten53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJc0yQyYTd
note that said that someone known as Fang was coming after me. I assumed they53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSicaNRYTlu
didn’t know where I was because I didn’t end up with a knife in my side while I53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrJCJ2KQMC
slept. They must have picked me up somewhere then waited until I was distracted53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMB31D5G7K
before coming after me. If it hadn’t been for Humi there was a chance, I would53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SoBuKnwaD
be killed.”
“Any idea who they were?” Vander53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzqiGvK7kD
shook his head.
“None, they wore both a mask and a53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVWkZOnCO7
hood.” He explained. “However, they infiltrated a space that was protected by53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJbpKkaa6q
Humjir’s ability. Which,” he glared at Cuvera. “How is that possible? I thought53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPPrjIHMzn
only Malcolm, and now you, could use those powers?”
“It’s complicated, I don’t truly53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmZv5YK6Z1
understand it myself.” Kiara placed her hand on Cuvera’s shoulder then53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdle19g4wk
whispered in his ear. “I’m sorry, but Kiara is tired. We must go but worry not.53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34fQqatWUJ
We will get you out of this.”
“Are you going to stay?” He looked53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSlHxohgWN
at Eliza. He didn’t know why, but he really didn’t want her to leave.
“Of course.” She grinned, holding53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fZWMGJu9k
up the cell keys. “I can’t let you out, but I can go in.” she placed the key53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGbZuaB1bL
inside the lock and turned it. The door popped open, so she allowed herself53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb11jNgDmjt
inside.
“I’ll come to let you out in the53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUTeZXor0q
morning.” Cuvera held his hand out for the keys, which she returned. “Enjoy53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HuW8EOiNu
yourself.” With that, Cuvera and Kiara left the room leaving the two of them53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcn8QuUeWQ9
together. For the first time in a long time, Vander felt tongue tied. He didn’t53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUtfVDsKIN
know what to do.
“Sit down.” Eliza sighed. “You53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNaDJAjLub
look like you’re about to fall over.” She sat down against the wall then patted53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2op9S00LU7
the open spot next to her. Not sure what he should do, he sat down next to her,53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbR1QEoLe8
but made sure none of his body touched her. “Am I that repulsive that you won’t53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBursVjjUtm
even touch me?” she sounded hurt.
“I’m sorry.” He spoke. “I’m just53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWioxUfZoQ
scared. For some reason I get nervous around you, like I don’t want to53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4WoPrWNu5
disappoint you. I’ve had plenty of partners, but this seems foreign to me.”
“I guess that’s to be expected.”53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfx1ItKXIj
Eliza smiled. “I’ve known about you ever since I was young, so I’ve been53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeL9CQqBqcj
preparing for my entire life. But you just found out a couple of months ago and53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtRNzcvLzn
we never got to spend any sort of time together. So, for now, how about we just53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmXbl5aZSN
get to know each other and let this occur naturally?”
“You’d be okay with that?”
“Of course.” She spoke. “You can53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwd4E6keJtj
be completely honest with me; I won’t judge you Vander.” He hesitated, but he53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Y0cIDwsb7
didn’t feel any treachery in her words. It was time he became honest with53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWI7FfYdNQ
someone other than Shea. It was time for him to be vulnerable.
“Are you sure you can handle it?”53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdVBg5uEG5
he smiled. “You’d be my first actual relationship since getting dumped by53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3WmnCtZ9E
someone I wanted to marry. She left me for prestige and for someone I hate.”

“But if you asked me too, I’d punch her in the face for you.” He laughed and it53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezK576e2Kh
was the first real laugh he had had since his best friend’s wedding. Perhaps,53Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi7VurdQAY
just for tonight, everything would be alright.
