The Doomed And Blessed, 13th Young Miss Chapter 32

CHAPTER 32

 

Talon became so utterly sad and depressed, that much that he had not cared at all that his wife had left the estate, to never return…Becoming known to the fact that Sahara was instead his little sister, he honestly wondered why he didn’t want to give up on having her as his daughter instead. But, he knew, that in the end he hadn’t been able to protect her as either a brother nor a father. He hadn’t once seen her after she had been born, he didn’t look for her after she had ‘disappeared’ all those years ago, and now was unable to stop her from being poisoned.

How could he want to be either a father or a brother, when he had failed so miserably at both of them!

He felt horribly regretful and never felt so depressed in his life. He felt even worse when he thought that both his child and wife had wanted to hurt Sahara and wished that he hadn’t had a family!

It really did make him ponder on the idea on if she had been better off without ever meeting him in the first place!

He had wanted to go find her, already knowing he didn’t want to stay still, but the Second Prince stopped him. Talon had wanted to fight to the bitter end, not caring who the person was that was stopping him…But the Prince stated that he’ll definitely find Sahara and that he, Talon himself, had to keep her courtyard clean, for when she was to return.

Matthew could easily tell that Talon was in a stage where he could do harm upon himself, so, knowing Sahara cared for him, he made these conditions to keep him safe. If he was to give the man a goal, perhaps he’ll slowly become a little better…

And that was what Talon did, he stayed in his sweet Sahara’s courtyard, drank and slept, not leaving at all.

At first, he had wanted to write to her, to tell her how sorry he was. But after several attempts, he dismissed the idea, as it made him feel like she wouldn’t accept it anyway.

Samuel would go see Talon and sit with him, making Talon slowly realize that his son was still here. Seeing his son still so honest and innocent, Talon accepted his occasional presence and talked to him more openly then before.

Being able to see someone else that treasured and cared as much as he did, Talon found himself being able to hold himself together, as Samuel stayed by his side.

Strangely, through the bad occurrence of my disappearance, Samuel’s and Talon’s relations.h.i.+p got closer…

 

 

A few weeks after the event of my disappearance, news became public within the Green Haven Capital city. A female was tied to a pole by her hands and feet, looking very dirty and far from the looking like the first wife of a son of the Right Minister. Her hair was knotted and all over the place, her clothes were that of a commoner and she had dried blood showing on places that the light clothes on her weren’t covering. Her pale skin, looking as though she hadn’t done hard labour in her entire life, didn’t match her overall look, as she rocked along with the cart that she was on.

“This lady wanted to kill another of her kin just because she didn’t want to send her daughter away to marry…In her vengeance, she used the ‘Two Faced Poison’ that is absolutely forbidden in all Haven’s! It is known by all, that using this poison means death!”

This same verse rang throughout the entire capital, as the lady was transported towards the place where they beheaded people.

The Emperor had willingly approved of the Second Prince in making this news public, he wanted to remind the people that not only can the poison still not be used, but that the people should abide by the laws. With that kind of verse, he wanted people to know that doing something like this was utterly shameless and would not be forgiven!

He was a strict ruler, always making sure that punishment was met! Having heard that the ‘Two Faced Poison’ had been used, he decreed that the punishment will commence as soon as the investigation was completed!
