Chapter 270
Amelia didn’t see the need for secrecy. She was the queen of the demons here in the castle. Edith was here with them and she was loyal enough not to repeat what she heard Margaret say to Killian. Amelia thought it was those from the Blackwell castle who she had to be secretive with.
"Help me to understand. The priests dislike demons, but not witches, who would use people like us for spells if needed?" Amelia asked. She now realised how skilled Margaret was for her to not even see when whatever the spell was placed on had come out since Killian could hear them a moment ago.
How was whatever the spell was on working now, but not when they were speaking to Killian?
"They dealt with witches just as they did with demons. We have a witch in our hold to make us what we want and then there was the witch your father snuck off to see to make sure his child would be a boy. That was wasted," Margaret said since Annabelle was now without a child. She also had no use for that woman now that Amelia was back earlier than she planned.
Margaret intended to make the most of Amelia being here. The throne would have a Blackwell sitting on it as it always should have been. She would have Amelia cleansed and formally placed on the throne just as Amelia had always dreamed.
"You are confusing me, grandmother. Was it not you who pushed me to be with Killian? Have you forgotten that it was not my plan to marry him in the beginning, but you pushed the idea of it when you knew this whole time that he was a demon? Now it is like you want me to suddenly cut ties with him and forget about my marriage," said Amelia.
She could not do it if that was what Margaret expected. She did not come to love Killian this much just to let him go for the Blackwell throne. With their plans, Amelia would have both the Blackwell throne and Killian. There was no other way she wanted it now. Her plans had long changed to include Killian and their future children.
"What if I were to be carrying his child?" Amelia asked, afraid of the answer, but she had to know.
Margaret looked at the guards following Amelia who she knew to be demons and then she brought her attention back to Amelia. "You cannot carry the child of a demon-"
