Bloody Eyes
|Bab 52|

Daniela, in the midst of silence, took a step forward and John — who had been by her side until then — looked at her in wonder, something she quickly hid by adding a neutral expression on her face with her arms crossed behind her body.

— Now everyone seems calmer, Luana, I think it's a good time to tell you what really happened — Dani suggested to look her friend in the eye.

The contact did not last long as Luana quickly threw her face towards Owen, to the face of someone who would protest or scold something she did not like at all. But it's not gonna happen.

“How about you listen to what I have to say Uncle Darling and after that panic all you want? - Luana smiled viperina still with Harvey holding her waist. - Except - he waved his hand excessively - You are in no mood to know the good news I brought through my own mouth but through the mouths of servants - you are in no mood to know

poke fun at.

Your mental claw Owen's mind. If Luana wanted to, she could crush him there, at that very moment without anyone knowing what was really going on. He has it in his hand. That collapsed barrier - no one knew - was his greatest weakness. But destroying his mind was not so satisfying at the time. If one day he was going to kill her, he would tear her heart out with his own claws and keep it as a goblet - as it would not rot - right next to her throne. So that somehow Owen could see who won and see who the real queen of the kingdom was. The man's expression then softened slightly as Luana ordered, but in order for no one to be suspicious except for Daniela who knew about it, she let anger shine in her eyes. Not the false anger, but the anger Owen felt at that moment. The fact was, he had entered his mind again and surrounded it with his strength, controlling that futile body. Luana then instilled the words in her mind and she said it:

— Just drop what you have to say girl and stop stalling — Owen snorted, exactly as Luana wanted, the tone was perfect for her.

The queen smiled, stepped forward and pulled away from the clutches of Harvey, who did not even protest her curiosity.

—Although I am the queen and I should not give you any satisfaction, it is better to keep telling you so that you do not commit atrocities, right? — one more step forward towards Owen, the gesture towards Daniela who remained in the middle faced her father with limp hands on the side and a mischievous glint in her eyes.

— Well, I better tell you everything from the beginning, right? Dani glanced at him and nodded in agreement. — We initially knew that the werewolves would be out of control tonight, he said, so we made a barrier between our territories so that they could not cross over here because it seemed that no one had thought of it before. This is why there are no wolves here, I must say. But we do not imagine that their leader is Transcendent, so the barrier didn't work with him and he even made it through some of his colleagues who ended up finding us out in the open while we thought about what to do with everyone. Dani and I will attack them when their leader tells us he is coming for a peace mission. In short, at dusk they would come to the castle to take the blood oath at a later date. Then John - he turned to the general - making sure everyone knew this and did not dare to attack - he leaned over, in his eyes a strange glint appeared but he still remained in the same place, he was still in, there is still time left to organize all .

Luana finally let go of Owen's mind and withdrew from the rotten place. That dark, empty mind is certainly not a pleasant place like Layton or Daniela and Paisley. The thoughts of the three were something completely different and they were not shattered. It looks empty and soulless. That full of posture and disrespectful actually has a weakness that in a matter of seconds can turn it into dust, just want it. Even if it was Daniela who had that talent - the way she looked at her grumpy, paper-faced father now - she would have done it a long time ago. But it was not Owen who spoke in a tone of wonder when Luana finished speaking.

“It makes no sense in the slightest that the werewolf leader would submit to you even as a Transcendent. This is usually not subject to anyone, ”The voice of Merleah even shakes a little as she says it.

“Alright”—Luana turned to Merleah, smiled—“the leader was the first to bow to me. Daniela is proof.

Merleah looked at her daughter questioningly and she just nodded in agreement.

"Those useless people have never obeyed my orders, why would they bother to submit to a changed ex-human like you?" - words full of contempt and hatred, he said, Luana looked at him again.

His clenched hands tried to hold back the claws that were struggling to get out, but it seemed that he had learned a lesson and controlled himself: one more wrong move and the prowess of his son would end it without even needing to know his weak point. . John noticed that as well and he was now half-smiling with irony dancing in his red eyes. Harvey did not move, but he noticed every movement and breath in the room. He doesn't know what to think about it. The werewolves who never bowed to any king, the same werewolves who rebelled after the death of their most powerful great-grandmother in the entire world, those who were only subject to the queen had submitted to their queen centuries later. . Of course, it infuriated Owen because he could never control them even willingly. And now they just bow to the one he hates the most. Your brother's daughter. Who for him was a coward for having renounced his right to the throne to live in another world with humans. But the astonishment on Merleah's face, no, that's not the reason. It was the change that stunned him. The goals he had to fulfill formed right before his eyes. Everything finally makes sense. Marrying Owen didn't seem like a waste. And then there's John, who knows more than he allows, but he knows.

— You're right Owen — Luana laughs. “Before, even I didn't understand what the purpose of being in this world was while I was fine as a human. Now I finally understand. All this because I'm not like you and I'll never be like that. I'll do it differently than you've done and if you allow me to say, with your son, I'll change this kingdom. You might think this is my revenge, but I'm on top of that Owen. You don't deserve someone to destroy you, you deserve to waste yourself. This will be Owen's more pleasant revenge. Not just for the death of my parents, but for all you've done for this kingdom and for me.
