Moon Phased: The Triple Claim novel Chapter 465

Chapter 239-2

Chapter 239-2

Everyone in the room just froze, and they all stared at me like I had two heads, but as their eyes started to widen, they began to realize that the cat was out of the bag. At this point, I honestly don’t know why everyone hasn’t just some clean, but as I stare at Evan, I realize that there were some things that he would like remained buried in the past. Unfortunately, with everything that is happening, those things need to be properly addressed, especially since they involve all of us and

how we got here today.

Realizing that his little secret was now completely out of the bag, Evan pushes himself off the wall, taking a step into the light, so that his presence was now officially among us, before he says, “I amy guilty of keeping secrets from you all, but I had my reasoning for doing so. If the truth got out/ about what happened all those years ago, then our family would have been ruined, and the pack would have fallen. So, I did what was necessary to protect us all.”

For a second, I believed him, thinking that whatever had happened had to have been pretty bad, but then Liam and Ethan stepped into the bedroom at that moment. Instantly, my eyes moved to the massive scar running down Ethan’s face, making me question which one of the two actually was the one that had made the sacrifices for their family and pack.

My brother must have caught the tail end of what Evan had been saying, because as he moves to my bedside, handing me a glass of cold water, he says, “I guess we made it back just in time to hear the truth.”

My eyes instantly darted between Evan and Ethan, witnessing a silent standoff happening between the two, as they both looked hesitant to say a word now in my presence. It was like the cat had stolen both their tongues, leading me to be the one to break their awkward silence.

“I understand that some things need to remain buried in the past, and that the two of you clearly have some hostility against each other, but we all need to know the truth of what happened all

did.” those years ago, so that we don’t make the same mistakes as you

At that moment, their stare off faltered, as Evan turned his gaze towards us, but Ethan turned the opposite way, looking straight at Lexi and Mazie. It only took a second before I watched his facial features change, as he raised his hand, pointing his finger directly at Lexi, saying, “Wait, I know you. You’re the witch that helped me and Carla’s father.”

My eyes instantly at that moment looked at Lexi, wondering what on earth Ethan was talking about, as there was no way in hell it could have been her. I mean, yeah, looking at Lexi now, she could be a couple of years older than me, but to be my mother’s age or older, was not even possible.

Lexi immediately began to shake her head, while she said back to him, “You clearly have the wrong person. I would have been maybe around the age of one or two when all of this went down.”

Ethan’s eyes squinted slightly, as he cocked his head to the side, still staring at Lexi, like he was in denial that it wasn’t her. But then he says to her, “No, you’re a spitting image of the witch that helped us.” Making me now question his account of what happened.

But then, Evan breaks in on this matter, thinking that he is going to undermine his brother’s memories, by saying, “Then that would make her a ghost, because unfortunately, that poor young witch lost her life saving your damn ass from that black mist.”

I sat there for a few seconds, staring past Evan at completely nothing, as I thought about what both him and his brother had just said. It only took those few seconds for me to add two and two together, before I turned my head to look back at Lexi, realizing that our lives were more

connected than we knew.

Immediately, our eyes locked onto one another’s, and being her friend for so long, I could tell, without words even being spoken, that we were on the same page by the pain in her eyes. Unfortunately, it now made sense how Lexi came to be in my grandfather’s care, as it wasn’t her that owed him for taking her in, but it was actually my grandfather that owed her his life, for her mother’s life that had been taken, saving him and Ethan.
