Chapter 83
RITA’S
POV
I found it hard to believe my ears. Was this a joke? Was he joking?
“How am I a threat to you?”
“The necklace,” he replied. “I saw the necklace with you when you visited. That is the key to the lock my box. If you had it, it only meant you knew the truth and had only visited me yesterday, because you knew the truth.”
My knees weakened and then they touched the ground. My father killed my mother. All these while I was thinking it was his wife, but he was the one. He rendered me motherless. That explained the hate he gave me.
Now, he wanted to end my life just like he ended my mother’s life.
“But why?” I asked. My voice quivered. “Why did you kill her? What do we ever do to you? I thought we were a happy family. Why did you kill your mate? Just like you are a threat, she was a threat to me too and I hate threats, so I remove them as soon as possible.”
How was my mother a threat to him.
“I hate you,” I said to him. “I wish you were never my father.”
He laughed. “I can help you with that. I’ll kill you and when you die, I’ll have no daughter. If your father has no daughter. It simply means you have no father.”
“You should be in the asylum. You’re mentally derailed.”
“Stop confusing your aunt with me,” He said and I lunged at him. But, before I could get to him, his thugs got to and held me back, stopping me from beating him up like I planned to in my head..
“You’re not dead yet, so I’m still your father. Mind how you act around me.” Then he looked around. “And what about that bodyguard of yours that you call your mate. Where is he when you need the most?” He cackled.
“Tie up her hands Incase she gets scratchy,” my father said, but before they got to me, I shifted to my wolf, Dakota.
She lunged at him, but was shot immediately with tranquilizers and everything became dark.
When I woke up, I saw myself tied up in an open. I was naked and tied up to a chair.
Aunt Freya was in the room with me too and she was tied up just like I was.
My face turned pale when I realized the severity of the situation. Plus, I was naked. I did not want to think of what they might have done to me. My heart beat fast that it hurt.
“They did not touch you. That madman was scared that your mate will be alerted, so they injured you only.”
The moment Aunt Freya said it, I felt pain throughout my body I took another look at my body. I was covered in wounds and none of them showed no signs of healing.
“Unfortunately, my sister married a serial killer. So, he knows what to use to kill and inhibit healing.”
Well, that explained the unhealed wounds.
“I’m
sorry. You’re the one bearing everything now. You’re paying for her mistake.”

“I am. You should not have come. My life is not very exciting anyways. I’m stuck in that building for mad people. You, on the other hand have so many years of excitement waiting for you. You should not have come here. I tried to give you a sign that this was a trap, but I did not.”
“Even if I got your sign, I would still come here,” I said and she glared at me.
“Just, shut up. This is real life and not a soap opera. Quit the cheesy lines. You would come here to go what? Die alongside with me? Don’t tell me you are this stupid?”
She looked around. “We have to find a way for you to escape and we have to do so fast. That man will kill you.”
“You have to escape too. We have to find a way for us to escape.”
She shook her head in disapproval. “I told you to stop using your cheesy lines on me. We should be logically. I’m a madwoman and me, teaching you logic is a slap to your face.”
“You’re not a madwoman.”
“Then, why am I in an asylum?”
“I know right? The people that should be there are not even there. You helped me find out the truth about my mother’s death. You’re definitely not mad.”
“Look at where that has landed us now. I should not have told you anything.”
I bowed my head and began to pray to anyone that cared to listen. I prayed for miracle, because apparently, we needed a miracle to escape this.
“Where is she?” I heard Ty, my birth father ask from afar. “Don’t tell me you put her together with that witch. Incompetent fool. If they escape, I’ll replace them with your mother and sister.”
I knew he was mean, but this was just plain evil. It dawned on me that I knew just a few things about people I was close to me. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that my father could do what he just did. It was crazy.
The door swung open and he walked in.
His eyes traveled from my head down to my toe. I wanted to puke as I felt his eyes on me.
