Chapter 241: Rare (2)
"Where are her parents? She knows their bodies have been moved," said Xavier.
"They are safe. I am taking care of my daughter and her husband," Zephyr replied, passing the two to walk further into the cave.
Orlork remained silent, taking in everything that was said. Xavier truly did know more than he did.
"No one thought of how she would feel to find out their graves were empty. You might have been killing those who trouble her, but you’ve given her more reasons to cry, and I don’t like to see my wife crying unless it is happy tears," said Xavier.
"Those graves were not to be dug up. It was never planned for those two to be buried, but Selene managed to find a good place for them to rest. She did well," Zephyr said, proud of what Selene did by herself. "I was resting when it happened. I woke up long after they were gone."
Zephyr first searched for Selene only to find she had been married to a mixed-blood. He thought she was safe there, so he searched for where his daughter was since she had to be alive.
"I wanted to find her parents before I dragged her into bigger troubles. We thought of putting an end to what the palace started before she would see her parents again. They did not want anyone to have their eyes on Selene, but then she married you, which spread her name around," said Zephyr.
"Are you hiding from the other Everharts? Since you arrived, you’ve been saying a lot of nothing, leaving us in the dark. It is about time you share your plans with him. He is the one who has been keeping her safe. I can leave so the secrets remain between you two," Orlork suggested.
Zephyr stared at Xavier. "Do you know what makes Selene special? Have you noticed anything?"
