Arno directed to Lina and shouted so that she could hear, "Here we have a little monster, even didn't bother to give us a hand, she was watching a theater! Ah, I'm cross with her."
"Consideration of yours is a choice, which I wouldn't deny we intended to help, we were passing by and heard roars". Morwarid answered.
Lina was fretful then, her plan B didn't work at all so she needed a back cover. The rest of the team all gathered. Silman walked to Lina grabbed her arm and took her with him.
"Well, well, now it's time to speak out about you little crafty, tell us where is your brother?" He persuaded her to tell them the truth, whether had no hope for her.
"Isn't your mission to find him? I don't know where he is and if I knew you weren't here now!" She snickered.
Silman gazed at Daniel and said, "Dan, she had done something to Marcus, her two-edged words are enough proofs. She thought that we are some kids fooling around".
Mohan was speechless, his brain couldn't process all that shock. Lina shrugged and fretted, "He wanted to get back to his real father and I just gave him a push as a sympathetic sister", she tagged it a simper.
"Who is his real father then? Did you lie to him?" Arno reprimanded.
Mohan looked at her blankly, clearly aware of what she intended to say. He approached to her and asked, "What are you talking about? You better watch your loose mouth, already had made many troubles, if you keep that way I might close my eyes and send you to the hell for the rest of demons, so now, tell me what did you do to your brother?" Vitriolic and serious tone of him dried that sneer on her face.
"He is right, don't tend to play with us more", Arno added.
Pirates were watching them taking confession from her. Morwarid leaned to a tree. Took out a pocketbook out of her fanny-pack. So strange to see her reading!
She released her arm out of Silman's hand, "Take your hands of me idiot, he is not my brother, not son of my father in fact", she emphasized. Then directed to Mohan and said, "Don't tell me that you were unaware of that he is your son. Of course maybe that moll didn't say a word, but she was pregnant before bedding my father! She deceived all of you, wet-nurse told me everything and she was your girl, but got married to my father for those shinny coins, didn't she? Sighed, poor Mohan."
She put forth, delightful that she discovered this secret and smashed it to his face. She blew off her steam and a shine of odium appeared on her iris. Her words were axes beating his brain. Every one of them kept being quiet towards that complicated situation.
Lina's words were nothing, but vituperation. Dena got threated by Zooland that if she doesn't accept his proposal, in near future her family will suffer especially Mohan and Arda. He forced her to choose her life against their safety.
Daniel forked her arm between his long fingers and dragged her to a corner, "Listen daughter of demon, I know why you are doing this, to please Lug and find a place in his court, why not his queen, huh? You're a damn fool he don't give a…" he paused. Lina was frightened now. Dan's primness annoyed her. He said his name and that meant he met Lug before. It gave her a chill.
"I'm not like others to feel pity about your age, since you act like a demon I'll behave you the same". He murmured and warned her.
She resented, had heard about him so far, but meeting Dan in person especially when he went out of rage was terrible. She knew that he won't show mercy to Lug's allies.
"I helped him to pass the guards, but I'm not sure if that slouchy could hang on". She said with disinterest. But in a mad state she burst to laugh, almost screeching that echoed in the forest. She was relishing herself and that she may got succeed to hurt them. Likewise she continued that gaff then added, "That dimwit ungrateful bastard, when I told him Mohan is your father without a second of thinking pleaded plus asked me to help him finds another cox!"
Morwarid smirked at her happy devilish thought. She revealed her sins very soon, but half explained. She let her enough to play a wicked role and show her real face. But she didn't confess the whole truth and it was the right time to smash back those waves of rage into her face. With her accent of narrating the truth you could figure it out that she has no sense of being a sister, expecting her as a human was too much!
Envy had darkened her heart and blinded her eyes. Reading her mind wasn't facile, realizing her problem was even the hardest part. How much she could get by while carrying venom? To find the answer they needed to be patient.
"Oh sorry to interrupt your glee mood, how old are you? You little demonic princess must be about eighteen, correct me if I'm wrong", Morwarid pointed to Lina, paused and then continued, "I must write down a book about you with a title of, autistic princess!"
"What do you mean nasty pirate?" She cried out.
Their sights moved to Morwarid who just closed the book and went on,
"I'm very delightful for giving this news to you and ruin your day! I must disappoint you! Marcus is alive, however you beat your dagger right close to his spin cord. We found him near the exit on harbor. He was strong enough to pass this forest. I thought I may kill you after causing him that wound. How could you attack him from backward? He is alright now and under protection of Jellyfishes, if you dare to hurt him again or even attempting I wouldn't promise these nasty pirates don't care for dirty royals if getting eaten by sharks. You know, we have no respect or honor so we may do something even worse to you."
Crystal gaped, wondered how Lina can eat in Lug's hand, "I can't believe if you are a human no longer, you looked fishy from the first sight".
Everin touched her chest. The pain increased in a sudden, flared and made her gasp. She coughed a few times. Her legs couldn't tolerate and before falling on her knees a strong had grabbed her shoulder. Blurry vision affected her. She shook her head but it didn't return. Not a second passed when all colors gathered and made an autistic Imour. It punched her and she fell in dark.
Before, Silman turned back to Everin. She was coughing and covered her mouth with a hand, blood was dripping down. He caught her before she faints.
Arno and girls sat beside them. He grabbed her wrist to check her pulse and said, "Did she hurt while saving me?"
"Yes, I saw the monster hit her chest, but she quickly got up I thought she is fine", Crystal said and tears already rolled over her cheeks.
"We must find a doctor, her situation is in a pear-shaped state", Daniel said. He looked furious. Everin was his loving aunt. Her manner, face and all of her existence could remind his mother and all of this had happened because of Lug.
"My uncle is a doctor he may be able to help you, luckily he is in our ship now for saving Marcus", Morwarid stated. All of them looked at her doubtfully. Daniel found no other choice because Arno wasn't familiar with this kinds of inner wound.
Lina found herself free and got the chance to run for her horse at the moment. All attentions were on Eve and ignored her. She studied Dan's face a few minutes ago. He wouldn't let her go that easy without questioning. Not her father's position could help her. Otherwise Zooland loved Marcus and considered him as heir of his throne and never believed her if they could bring him back and deny it.
She mounted up and hooted the horse and rode back to castle.
