Chapter 43 - Lea speaks to her family (2)

"Lea this can be a trap," Dainal spoke at this moment.

"No Danny it's not, though I don't have my powers at the moment I still have some basic knowledge on how to judge people, and the emotions that I saw in her eyes when I was speaking were true…" Lea answered then added after a few seconds of silence,

"The distance that she kept from us or the way she spoke to Dad and blamed him was her way of mourning for the loss of her best friend then".

"But…" Daniel wanted to argue but was interrupted by Henry who was silently listening to the whole conversation till now as he said "Elle is right Daniel, calm down".

"Not you too Father… how can I stay calm when I know that she is in Asterin alone and she is trusting the enemy blindly there," Daniel said.

"Yes Father how can we leave Elle out there alone," Erick added.

"I know Elizabeth, she is not a person who backstabs a person with her sweet talks. Whatever differences we have it's between me and her, this does not include you.

And now when there is such a nice opportunity to mend the strained relationship I don't want to let go of this.

This is what even your mother would have wanted us to do" Henery said as he placed a hand on Danial's shoulder to calm him down.

At this moment they heard Lea speak, "And have you both forgotten who I am brother? Trust me I am fine and as Dad said this might be an opportunity given by Hevens to change things around for good. 

We need to get rid of the differences between us before the war starts. If we are fighting among ourselves how will we fight the enemy?".

Listening to her words both the Beaufort brothers went silent, after a few minutes Danil spoke defeatedly,

"We know you are capable of handling all of this but we are worried because of your present condition. If something unexpected happens to you what will we do?

We did not want to send you to the human world in the first place, we only agreed because you agreed to take William with you for your protection but still look at what happened.

You were attacked by someone. Now you want to stay at Asterin whom we don't know to consider as an enemy or a friend and that too without anyone out there to protect you…".

After a bit more convincing the brothers agreed to let Lea stay in Asterin for the time being.

After ending the call Lea deleted the application and the message and then turned off her phone, kept it back in the drawer, and then went back to take the much-needed rest.
