Chapter 410: Mother’s Resolve
**************
Chapter 410
~Aira’s POV~
I exhaled slowly, leaving Storm’s hand and letting him play around, particularly disturbing his grandmum as he pleased. Mother never minded.
Mum took a toy she had kept beside one of the couches and handed it to him. He busied himself with the little stuffed wolf Mom had given him, his fingers tracing the soft fabric.
"Where do I even start?" I muttered.
Mom arched a brow. "At the beginning."
I scoffed. "That would take time."
Her expression remained patient. I knew there wasn’t a way she would let me go. I sighed, leaning back into the cushions. "It’s bad, Mom. Worse than I ever thought it would be."
She waited, giving me the space to explain. So, I did.
I told her everything I knew—everything that had been tearing our supposed future family with the Golds, apart. About Snow and Zara’s separation, and how she left the house in anger. About Vani’s sudden appearance and the unease surrounding her. About Tempest walking away from Ryland since he found his mate.
