Chapter 0293

I snarl as I push Jai out of the way, making it just in time as Zade is ready to rip his heart out.

Seeing my son for the first time with an expression of hatred twisting his face is not what a father hopesfor. He turns the gun, cocking the trigger as he turns it

on me.

There’s recognition in his eyes and for a fraction of a second, I feel he is about to lower the gun, butthat expression vanishes pretty quickly as resentment and rage replace it.

“Zade, I’m Hugh, your father.”

“You ain’t no fucking father of mine,” he snarls venomously, pulling the trigger without mercy. I dodgeand Jai–lunges at him, throwing him back, only to be thrown to the ground violently by Zade.

It’s clear from the state Jai is in that he had been in wolf form. I never knew he could shift, but I amproud of him. Everyone has pushed themselves to the limit, proving that their faith in the goddessremained.

“Are you alright Jai!” I growl as I run over to him. He’s in a bad state. There’s blood pouring from hisshoulder, left flank, and his stomach. “You need to get out of here,” I mutter, stepping in front of him as Iflex my hands, watching Zade, who is observing me with hatred, what I just did clearly triggered hisanger. “You’re a fucking façade!” he snarls, launching himself at me. “I’ll finish you first before I go replaceyour precious little princess!”

“She is your sister Zade. I came here to talk to you!” I counter loudly.

The howls and shouts from around me are deafening, but even then, it feels like it’s just the two of us.

I can see myself in him, although he does remind me a little of Adam too, and it does hurt knowing heis far too gone to save…

If only I had known years ago. I could have saved him…

“Too fucking late for that, way too fucking late! Don’t act like I don’t know the truth!” He hisses as hepulls out a knife, spinning it before he grabs it by the hilt- and lunges at me.

I duck. I too have trained for years of my life. Even if I am no longer as young or fast as him, I am nofool…

I duck and dodge his attacks, aiming a kick in his stomach, only for him to bend backwards and swinghis knife at me once again.

I move back, almost falling, but I aim a kick at his shin before backing away to regain myself.

“If this is about why I never came to replace you, I never knew you made it… Your mother had an entirestory made…”

He throws his head back, letting off a bitter laugh. “You really are a fucking loser. I know the truth. Iknow that you ain’t my fucking father. Adam Toussaint was my father. Hate to break it to ya if you didn’tknow that shit!” he spits as he

comes at me again.

Who told him that?

They are my children… there is no doubt about that, but someone clearly manipulated the truth.

I see Jai move from the corner of my eyes, going for a discarded gun. As much as I know Zade isdangerous, I need him to know the truth.

“Whoever told you that was lying! You and Zaia are mine, me and your mother were fated mates! Youare my son!”

“I don’t buy your bullshit. I know you killed my father!” He snarls as the knife slices through myshoulder, pain burning through me as I jump back, breathing hard.

How much distrust and hatred have they embedded in him?

“I am not lying, I am not saying forgive me because I should have seen through Melanie’s lies… but Idon’t want you to replace out later and-”

Jai pulls the trigger and Zade ducks, his aura raging around him as he turns on Jai, sending a blast inhis direction that sends him flying to the ground, but Jai still shoots again and this time it connects.

Zade grunts as he touches his left leg and looks at the blood on his fingers.

Nice strategy to play decoy.” He says mockingly, ignoring Jai and turning his eye on me. I wonder whathappened to his other eye?

I doubt he’ll want to share that with me.

“I

“I am not playing decoy or trying to distract you. Jai… leave this to me.” I say

quietly as a few more of the enemies‘ men rush forward to assist Zade, but the others intercept them.

Zade’s powerful aura is swirling around him dangerously, and no one is managing to get close.

I see Jai try, concern in his eyes as he watches me, but I’m more concerned about his state. He needsmedical care, but he refuses to back out as he gives commands to some of the men.
