Diana knew there was something wrong the moment they arrived at the Hathaway estate. Marcos's expression hardened in a way that she had never witnessed, the moment he caught a glimpse of the family symbol.

An irrational fear came over Diana, for as far as she knew, there was only one reason for Marcos to react in this way: the Hathaway clan had been responsible for the death of his family. Diana felt her legs go weak and strong nausea came over her body, which started to shake her body uncontrollably.

Before she could fall off the horse, Diana felt Hector's steady handhold her arm and his gaze fell upon her, questioning what was going on. Numerous questions filled her mind: were they taken to the property to be killed? Wasn't it enough that they destroyed her life and family?

“I thank you for coming from so far. I'm Lucian Hathaway. Come in and warm up, so I can explain the situation better ”, Lucian's voice was low and serious, but what surprised her was its content. She wouldn't be executed? Diana thought, looking at Marcos.

Her legs seemed to have stopped working, the sorcerer was only able to keep up with them because Hector was holding her arm tightly, guiding the way. If the Hathaway clan was responsible for the deaths of all the people important to her, what did that say about Hector? Did that make him an accomplice of that?
