Dexter's POV:
After doing everything we could at the store, Selene and I headed back to the royal palace.
The elders already knew about my mother's disappearance.
They asked me to bring Selene back.
It seemed they wanted to make a fuss of things.
The truth was, Selene didn't have to come.
But thinking about how she was to be my wife, I figured it'd be good for her to face the elders better sooner than later.
Thus, I followed the request of the elders and brought her with me.
To my surprise, the elders seemed to be gearing up towards putting all the blame on Selene.
They insisted she was to blame for my mother's disappearance.
"It's Selene's duty to protect Mrs.Sterling, but she disappeared right under her nose.She should take responsibility."
"Yes.Selene needs to be punished!" These elders were adamant.
"Selene didn't do anything wrong. She didn't know any of this was going to happen!" I defended Selene.
