FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN
I looked at her as she looked down. Avoiding my questions. I mean, what the hell made her think she could follow me here? I was already worried about the dangers in this place. The carnage the place holds was worrying me enough. And just last night I was talking about her with Void, and here she is in the land of foe with me.I tried opening another gateway, but it was for nothing. Nothing worked at the moment. I looked at the dreadfour but they just gestured their hands. signaling they can do nothing about that.“There is only one gateway out of foe. You can’t open your gateway,” Carl spoke, and I saw the terror in Maria’s eyes.Before I could even speak, Joseph began, “we will leave you two alone. You have a lot to talk about. Guys, let’s give them space. We need to find shelter because the sky looks like it will start puling down soon,” he spoke and gestured for them to walk ahead of us. Keeping them from earshot.I just glared at him as he smiled my way. That was why he was smilin
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT
I waited for Carl to yet answer my question about what he meant when he said home. He sounded happy and as he looked at me, his gray eyes glittered with excitement. But he didn’t want to share that with me. He was just smiling.We walked into yet another forest, but this one had green trees. Perfect leaves. Like someone has been maintaining it perfectly. But I still saw the mountains and something about them was just amazing. They reminded me of something that I was yet to comprehend.Then, just as I was about to ask him again, some people came from the trees and blocked us. This just got interested.I hurriedly called to my wizard powers. And they responded with a tingle all over my body. Carl just smiled as he looked at me and then walked forward to them.Looking back, the rest of the team seemed ready for anything. Joseph tapped his werewolf, and the dreadfour did whatever they would do to keep themselves safe. But of course that leaves my wife.“See what I was talking about? You a

I didn’t even know what to say to her claims. On one hand, I would believe her because they sounded believable. And she looked like she was telling the truth. She even cried as we walked, but kept that between us. Everyone seemed to be busy with whatever they were talking about.But again, I couldn’t believe her because she was her. She could lie because I wouldn’t allow her in my heart, she thought the only option for me to allow her in my heart was by lying to why she did what she did. And Joseph was helping her with that.I still haven’t talked to him about what he has just done. Because this was stupid. Allowing her to follow to the land I myself had no idea of was not clever or helping me. He just killed me, actually. Giving me more things to worry about.Then she brought up the thing of her getting married to me even when I was poor. That she didn’t consider my status then, so why would she care about me having money now? And I have to say, this was convincing. I just walked in
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER FORTY
I assessed the house Carl had just brought us into. We stood outside as we entered the gate. Looking closely, I realized it looked just like my mansion at home. Except that this one looked old. Like the opposite of my house. Even the walls were broken in some areas. Making me think it has been long ever since someone attended to it.I looked down, and the pavements were still there. But like everything else, they looked dirty, and blood stains I spotted. Looking at the fountain, it was also there. But the one at home has some man standing as water came out on top of his head. This one there was no water, and the man was starting to be covered in grass.The all place was my mansion, just the opposite of it. Was that why Carl called it home? Was this where my parents took him from? Why did it look the opposite of my mansion? And my ancestors built that mansion, did they get inspiration from this house? Which means they have been here. All my family members might have visited the place.
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER FORTY-ONE
Me, Carl, and Odin sat in one room I had never seen in my mansion. But since this place was the opposite of my mansion, it must also have the same room. I haven’t even had time to explore the house. Ever since I got the house, I have been running up and down. Dealing with work and personal life. Life of a rich person when you have psychopaths that want to kill you is hard.Odin was just playing with his hands. Waiting for me to say why I called him and Carl here. The cat, on the other hand, was just linking his paws.But I’m pretty sure they had an idea why I called them here. Because they know my parents better than I do. Odin was still leaving here. Hence, he met my parents and he might be the person to tell me what happened to me. Why I remembered nothing about the place.Also, the old man sensed us miles away. He knew we were coming. Which only makes me think he might have some answers to my questions. I hope.“Well, can one of you start explaining what the hell is going on here?
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER FORTY-TWO
I didn’t even know what to do with what was happening now. I was happy, though. Because my questions were being answered now. At least most of them have been answered. Only the one that dealt with the dreadfour and their claims about the Fatal.Why did the winter queen blame my parents for stealing something that was not even hers in the first place? If the dreadfour were the true owners of the Fatal, how did it end up with the winter queen and how did Revoc manage to get it from her?Also, what was with it that everyone seemed to obsessed with it? If it wasn’t of great importance, the winter queen wouldn’t have cared about it that much when Revoc stole it. And the dreadfour wouldn’t have shown up and took Carl for my parents to give them the Fatal.And where was the damn thing now? Was it still with Revoc junior or it was with another bastard that has potentials of becoming my problem in the near future?I stood on the balcony of my room. At least I got the same room as back home. An
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER FORTY-THREE
We lay in my bed. Her on my chest and we just lay in silence. None of us daring to break the silence. Void was right, and I hate to admit this to her. She will rub it in my face. But at this point, I don’t really care. I was just happy I got her back, and that everything was cleared. I miss judged her. She was just a wife that was trying to help out.“I missed this,” she spoke as she looked up at me. “And I love the beard, you should keep it,” she touched it.“Oh yeah? Then I will allow it to be like a grandfather. Not Odin. My grandfather. Well, pretty much all my ancestors kept it. I think it runs in the family.” I spoke.She leaned closer and kissed me, then allowed her head to be on my chest again. I don’t know what was more stupid, actually. The fact that I allowed her to be here in the land of foe with me. Or that I liked that she was nowhere. Because she was keeping me sane, as she has always been doing.“I know my parents went this far. I know you are upset with them. But take
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR
So far, things were better than I was expecting them to be. Yes, I came here to get answers to my questions, and I was getting them. But more questions popped up. But they all had obvious answers, so to say.And I never expected Maria to be here. Much less that we will get back together after what happened. I agree I was broken by what she and Pit did. She was the only one that was by my side through everything. Getting married to me when I had nothing at all. Even going against her parents and all her siblings.I don’t even know why I just thought she would cheat on me for money. Even when she told me to my face that I was a good for nothing husband, I shouldn’t have believed her. But again, fate was something neither of us could predict. Things just happened.And how we are all here. Waiting for the winter queen to attack if we don’t find Revoc sooner. We were all now in the living room. Waiting for Carl or Odin to start talking. Tell us what they had for us now.Odin cleared his th
