Lady Maggie stood like a stone out of the words which were spoken by her step-mother. She hadn't expected her to remind about her mother. And she stood like time had halted at that time. Realizing it was the truth which Fleurance had uttered just now.

Fleurance was not even half of what her mother was as a pureblooded vampire.
