Alpha's Abandoned Daughter is the Secret Heiress novel Chapter 304

Part II: Don’t run away from me

Enora couldn’t believe she could hear the voice of her beloved sister again, whom she longed for and

missed so much.

Enora slowly approached her, doubting if it was really her or if they were just deceiving her.

“How can I believe what you’re saying is true?”

With a sweet smile, the young woman replied, “You can ask whatever you want, and I will answer it. I still

vividly remember all the time I spent with you, dear sister.”

Enora asked something that only her sister could know and that she doubted she had shared with her

daughter.

“What did I tell you the day you left Arkala?”

With a sad expression, Sophia replied, “That I shouldn’t come back because if I did, I would be locked up in

the Evil Tower.”

Enora shortened the distance between them and hugged her.

She had always wanted to apologize to her sister for saying that, for denying her the option of returning.

It was something that ate away at her soul day after day, a great weight that she carried on her shoulders

and which she thought she would never get rid of.

“I’m sorry Sophia, I’m sorry… if I hadn’t said that the day you left, maybe you wouldn’t have died.”

“My death is not your fault, Enora, so don’t blame yourself for it.”

Lissana was between them, trapped in that crushing embrace. She felt suffocated and began to cry.

Alessandro pushed Enora away when he heard his daughter’s cries, breaking their embrace, and said, “Get

away from her! You’re crushing my daughter!”

Sophia handed the baby to Alessandro and said, “Here, take care of her.”

Sophia turned halfway and said to her sister, “I would like to talk to you, if you’ll allow me, of course.”

Enora couldn’t refuse any of her sister’s requests because even though she told her to stop blaming herself, it was something she couldn’t help but feel.

“Of course, I want to talk to you too.”

“I would like to visit the garden. I’ve always wanted to see it one more time.”

“Then let’s go.”

Enora went to the exit and told her guards, “I don’t want anyone to interrupt us. Don’t follow us.”

Sophia was about to follow her sister when a large, strong hand stopped her.

“Where do you think you’re going with my wife’s body?”

“To convince Enora to let them go.”

Alessandro continued to cling to Abril’s arm. Sophia could tell everything he was thinking by looking into his eyes. He was like an open book. He was afraid that she would take over his wife’s body, that she would

not return.

“I have already lived a life. I don’t intend to take my daughter’s body to live a second life, so don’t worry.”

Alessandro still seemed anxious, so Sophia told him, “I’m the only one who can convince Enora to let

them go, even more so when I tell my sister who you really are.”

“Who I really am?! What do you mean by that?!”

“In the spiritual world, I met your mother. She has asked me to explain a few things to you.”

Alessandro had realized that he didn’t really know who his mother really was, so when Sophia mentioned her, he wanted to ask her an endless number of questions that he thought would never be answered.

“What things?!”

“I’ll tell you later. Now you’d better let me go before Enora rips your arm off to make you do it.”

Alessandro looked in the direction Enora was in. She was giving him a terrifying look. He let go of her and asked, “I want to know what my mother told you. I want to know what you’re going to tell the Elven Queen.”

“And you will know. I will tell you everything later, but now I had better go with my sister. It seems she is

getting impatient.”

Seeing that Alessandro seemed even more anxious than before, Sophia said, “Just as you care for your daughter, I want to care for mine, and I plan to continue doing so, so change that face.”

ì

“Please, give me back my wife soon.”

“After I have done what I came to do, I will return her to you.”

Sophia marched off with Enora. Alessandro could do nothing but watch as she disappeared behind the

door.

Kiara approached Alessandro and asked, “Was that really Aunt Sophia’s spirit in that girl’s body?”

“Yes, it was.”

“My mother has always felt that she has a debt to settle with Aunt Sophia. Maybe she will achieve what I have not been able to do, to make my mother forget those stupid archaic laws that we still keep.”

Alessandro had not paid much attention to the young woman, but hearing her speak caught his attention. He thought that perhaps she was indeed a possible ally.

“Ethan told us that you wanted to help us. Is that true?”

“Yes.”

“Why? You don’t even know us.”

“Because if they get my mother to change, I’ll win too. I’m not helping you because I’m a good person. I’m helping you because I’ll benefit too.”

Barto went to visit Maya in her room after Abril and Alessandro left the royal palace, but he didn’t find her. Only the pixie who always followed her everywhere was there, eating cookies like a mouse.

When he had asked her where Maya was, she sighed heavily and told him she didn’t know. That Maya was too upset to dare follow her.

Barto then went to look for Cassian, thinking she would be with him, but that was not the case either.

In the end, the two of them ended up searching the palace for her all day.

The first to find her was Cassian. She was lying on the ground, on a soft layer of grass. There were many flowers around her that covered her, and if he hadn’t passed close enough, he wouldn’t have noticed she

was there.

“What are you doing here?”

Maya sat up. She was so absorbed in her thoughts that she hadn’t heard him approach.

“I was just thinking.”

Cassian held out his hand and said, “You’re not well. You shouldn’t be out here.”

Maya didn’t take Cassian’s hand. She felt she had no right to after lying to him.

“Abril used her magic before she left. Although it’s not a cure, it makes me feel good.”

“Even so, you shouldn’t be out here. It will be dark soon, and the nights are usually cooler.”

“Yes, you’re right.”

Maya remained seated on the grass. Cassian sat down next to her and asked, “What’s wrong, Maya?”

“When Abril made me feel better, I thought about running to you, but then I thought maybe it wasn’t a good idea, that maybe you were still upset with me and that I have no right to be by your side.”

“I won’t deny that I’m still upset, but that’s because it hurts that you didn’t trust me.”

“I didn’t want you to suffer knowing that we have so little time to be together.”

Cassian took Maya’s hand and intertwined his fingers with hers.

“Maya, I love you and I want to be with you. I want you to take me into account when you make a decision because I want to share not only the good times with you but the bad times too, so stop hiding in the corners. Even if I’m upset, I want to be by your side. Or do you not want to be with me anymore?”

“Of course I do. That’s what I want most.”

Part II: A new enemy

Sophia followed her sister in silence as they traversed the palace corridors. Thousands of memories flooded her mind; this was her home, the place she had always longed to return to but never did out of

fear. When they reached the garden, Sophia looked around with wide, bright eyes full of emotion. The

garden was filled with colorful flowers, and there was a small gazebo in the middle, draped with vines

bearing hundreds of tiny blue flowers. The sun had begun to set, casting a warm, soft golden light over the

garden, making it look even more beautiful.

“This place looks exactly the same as the day I left Arkala,” Sophia said.

“This was your favorite garden, so I asked them to take care of it. I wanted you to enjoy it when you

returned,” Enora replied.

“Thank you so much. I’m very happy to have the opportunity to see it once more.”

“It doesn’t have to be just one more time, Sophia. You could stay and…”

“NO! I’ve already lived a life; this one belongs to my daughter.”

“But… I wish I could be with you a little longer, sister. I don’t want to say goodbye just after finding you. I’m

not asking for forever, just for a while.”

Sophia shook her head and looked into the distance, where the sun was almost completely hidden behind

the tall mountains.

“Enora, I haven’t come to stay. I came to convince you to let my daughter be happy, to not insist on keeping her here.”

“You know it’s forbidden to have half–breeds. They are dangerous and must be confined in the Malva

Tower. Those are our laws.”

“And it’s precisely because of those stupid laws that I never dared to return. That’s why I hid my daughter by sealing her magical power. To protect her, I gave up my life.”

Sophia approached Enora, took her hand, looked her directly in the eyes, and said, “Enora, don’t torture my

child. Don’t make her suffer, because when you do, it’s as if you’re doing it to me. A part of my soul is still

connected to Abril’s. I can feel her pain, her despair, and her sadness.”

“You’re lying.”

“No, even though I’ve crossed into the spiritual world, I couldn’t do so completely. I thought our bond

would break when she broke the last seal that blocked her power, but it didn’t.”

“I could let her go, but not her daughter. That child, even though she’s just a baby, has overwhelming

power. She cannot live among humans.”

“Of the two, she’s the one you can’t keep, sister, because guardian blood runs through her veins.”

What?! thats not possiblet the guardians disappeared a long time ago.

“And so they did, but Alessandro is the son of the last guardian. He and his daughter are untouchable. No

clan can harm them.”

“So that’s why he could cross the barrier without any problem!”

“Exactly. Even though they don’t know it, he is part of a clan even older than the elves or the fairies.”

“Are you sure that man shares blood ties with the guardians?”

“Yes, and that’s why the child is so powerful.”

“He doesn’t know, does he?”

“No, it seems his mother never told him who she really was. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been able to

take the child, because possessing guardian blood makes one untouchable.”

Enora seemed very confused and didn’t seem to believe what Sophia was saying.

“If

you think I’m deceiving you, you could take him to the Guardian’s Gate. That way, you can confirm that

what I’m saying is true.”

“It’s not that I don’t believe you, Sophia, but you would do anything for your daughter.”

“Don’t worry, you don’t offend me. It’s the truth. That’s why I’m asking you to verify what I’m saying. As for my daughter, that’s a decision you have to make. Will you set her free, or will you lock her in the Malva Tower? Though I hope you don’t choose the latter.”

“I’ll think about it.”

“I understand it’s not an easy decision to make, but I hope that until you make your decision, you don’t lock

her in the Malva Tower. I wouldn’t want her to hate the place I loved so much.”

“Alright, I won’t lock her up. I’ll let her roam the kingdom, though I’ll have to put her under surveillance.”

“I understand. Enora, show my daughter how beautiful and wonderful Arkala is.”

“Yes, I will. I’ll show your daughter your favorite places. I’ll show her the kingdom you loved so much.”

Sophia released her hand and walked towards the small gazebo. Before reaching it, she turned around

and said, “Thank you, sister, thank you for fulfilling my last wish.”

Enora felt that her sister would disappear at any moment. She ran to her side, took her in her arms, and

said, “Don’t go, Sophia! Stay with me a little longer.”

“Alright, I’ll stay a little longer.”

“What are you thinking about, Sophia?”

“That you’ve changed.”

“I don’t think so.”

“Of course you have. Now you seem warmer than before.”

“Did I seem that cold before?”

“Maybe a little.”

“Sophia, what happened when you left Arkala? Dantriel said you were weak after giving birth and that using your magic to seal your daughter’s powers cost you your life.”

“Yes, it’s true.”

“That damned human…”

“He’s dead. We crossed the spiritual barrier together. Although our time in the human world was short, in the spiritual world, we can be together forever.”

“How can you want to be by his side after everything he did to you?”

“Because I know he didn’t do it because he wanted to or felt it. His mind was manipulated by darkness.”

“And that’s proof of how weak he was, how useless.”

“I was weak too. I couldn’t save him.”

“There’s something that’s always intrigued me. Why couldn’t you get rid of the darkness within him? Even if you were weak, your magic was powerful.”

“It’s because what possessed him wasn’t something normal. The darkness within him was something that had come from the depths of Hades, and now something like that has just emerged again and threatens to destroy our world.”
