Chapitre 107: Chapter 107: Carrying Charlotte

Mom wasn't long arriving, Varity and Enforcers with her. By then, Charlotte and I were on the front lawn, Kristophe with us. We'd left the screaming and defeated Jean Marc behind while the former Dumont family slowly gathered at the foot of the stairs, looking dazed and lost.

I'd never liked Kristophe, but the man who turned to me with a faint smile on his face was nothing like the jerk I thought I knew.

"Thank you," he said, softly, with real feeling. "For letting Father go."

"Thank Charlotte," I said while the air above us filled with blue fire at Mom's arrival. The former Dumont family watched in hopeless silence as my mother and her Enforcers immediately approached, soothing with magic, to pick up the pieces.

Kristophe offered his hand to my werefriend and, to my shock, she accepted it.

"You're welcome," she said.
