Capítulo 36: Chapter 35: Betrayal

"I said what are you doing here, Niscia?! You are supposed to hide Sander from Desmond!" I raised my voice, not minding the people who were here to see me.

Niscia did not answer. Her eyes were glued to the ground, not reacting that I had been yelling and humiliating myself in front of the pack members of Desmond.

"Niscia!" I felt betrayed right now. I didn't even know what I must do. I want to claw her out right now.

"Mama."

I lowered my gaze and felt the tugging in my dress. I immediately hugged Sander, who I longed for. "I missed you, Sander..." I murmured.

He started sobbing and buried his face in the crook of my neck. "I missed you, too, Mama... Auntie Niscia brought me here from the orphanage five days ago. She said that I will be safe here."

I stiffened. Five days ago? The only thing I remember asking a favor from her was three days ago. How was it five days ago?

Then it hit me.
