Chapter 147: Followed (3)
"Which Blackthorn has a servant who can shapeshift? Is it your father?" Selene guessed.
Life was too quiet now so Nathaniel had to be up to something.
"My father might have a few but I know this one isn’t his. He’s been watching me since the day we took back your home. He’s a servant to my grandfather," Xavier replied.
This stumped Selene. She wasn’t expecting to hear it was his grandfather since he was resting now.
"Your grandfather? Has he woken up?" Selene asked, nervous about having to run into the old gentleman.
Xavier handed the horse back off to a servant. "Not that I know. If he were awake, he would have been here now with my father at his side. Many of his servants are still awake and keep watch of his home. My father gathering the family must have caught their attention so now they are following me and most likely, following my father."
"I see. So, how are you with your grandfather? Would he bring trouble like your father is doing? Do I need to be concerned if he were to wake?" Selene wondered, not ready to meet with such an influential vampire.
The older the vampire was the scarier they could be.
"No. I’ve stayed out of his way and he has stayed out of mine. He has some interest in who I would marry but he never bothered me about it. It is my father who is trying to make up for marrying my mother. If my grandfather wakes, it can go either way for us," Xavier said, not knowing what to expect.
