The Silver Crescent Alpha Prince

Chapter 244 - A Horrible Game



Chapter 244 - A Horrible Game

"Oh wow!" Pia crossed her hands across her chest and mocked her. "And now you want to know how I am feeling? After giving me so much anxiety?"

"Yes, I would like to know," said Dawn as she stared at her.

"I am feeling rotten. I lost my baby. Do you think I am going to feel heavenly about it?" She was seething with anger. "You don't have the right to even talk to me. I don't know what kind of a Luna you will make for the Silver Clan. Do you know it is the most powerful clan? And you have shamed us at every damn point." She gripped her knife tightly in her hand. "I will move to the Head Council to ban you from the Silver Clan," she added with hatred.

So that was her plan. Dawn pursed her lips.

"Ignore her Pia," said Sedora. "As for the council, I have already informed them of her behavior. We will not keep her in this clan."

"Mother!" Daryn said in an intimidating voice. "This is my mate you are talking about."

Sedora looked at him insouciantly and said, "Once she is banned, she won't enter the gates of Silver Mansion. She will be derecognized at the Luna of the clan and you will lose your title. My elder son, Caleb is going to be the king."

Daryn stared at his mother disbelievingly. "Don't you get tired of the games?" he asked with revulsion. How could this woman be his mother? Did she love Caleb? Or everything was just a game of politics for her?

"Games?" Sedora gave a vicious laugh. "You should tell that to your wife, not me. She is playing games."

"Sedora you are crossing the limit," Gayle said in an intimidating voice.

She looked at her husband and then leaned back in her chair. She bared her fangs and said, "Don't you talk to me like that Gayle. You were nothing when I married you. You became the king of the Silver Clan after I married you. Always remember that."

"And I regret that day till now!" Gayle retorted.

Dawn took in a deep breath. The conversation was steering to a different direction and she had put it on track. She took out some photographs from her pocket and placed them near her. Before Sedora could say anything, Dawn said, "Pia I am really sorry for your loss but—"

"Sorry?" Pia's voice rose. "You should be ashamed. Go away from here. Get out if you don't want to be shamed by every person of the clan."

Dawn extended those pictures to her. "Those are the pictures of your ultrasound." She pointed with her chin. "Ones, you showed us during the party. Look at that tiny little dot."

Pia picked up those ultrasound pictures hurriedly. Her heartbeat increased so much that every Lycae in the room could hear it. She looked at them with affection. "Oh, my baby," she let out a wail. Then she looked at Dawn and barked, "Weren't you satisfied with what you've done. Now you have brought these photos to taunt me?" She let out a loud sob and the servants around her felt pain for her. Poor woman. They shot brutal glances at Dawn and thought that this woman was going to their Luna. She was heartless and savage. Pia cried as her shoulders started to shudder. Caleb held her.

"Don't Pia…" he said softly and stroked her hair. "I don't know for how long we have to bear this woman in our house." He looked at Dawn and said, "Please leave us. We cannot bear so much pain."

"Those pictures are of a nine months old fetus," Dawn said amongst all the opposition. "And from what I know, you were only six weeks pregnant. At that time it is usually impossible to detect pregnancy."

Pia stopped crying as she stared at Dawn. Realization hit as to what she just said. "You bitch!" she lashed at her. "And now you are calling me a liar? Are you a doctor?" The knife that she was holding in her hand, she flung it in her direction but Daryn held it before it could land on Dawn.

"Pia," Dawn continued. "I confirmed these pictures after showing them to two various doctors. These are photos of a nine weeks fetus. Did your doctor mix up the photos before giving them to you? But I don't think that is the case, because your name is clearly written on those photos. So where did you acquire them from?"

"Shut up!" Pia said with a viper tongue. "Just because you want to wriggle out of your deeds, you are blaming me blatantly?" She flung the pictures at her.

"That was your baby Pia. How could you throw away the memories of your child like this at me?" said Dawn to point out her indifference to a baby, after picking up a photo that stuck on her shirt.

"You—"

Dawn shook her head. She got up from the chair and walked to the shelf where cutlery was kept.

Sedora watched her with so much hatred that she was almost shivering.

"If I were you, I would have thought of the way of coming out of this web of lies. The photos that you showed to the clan were not of your baby, they were bought by you from your best friend Fiora, who is also expecting a baby."

"How dare you accuse me of something so heinous?" Pia shouted.

"I am not accusing. I am merely stating a fact," said Dawn as she brushed her fingers over her nails. "So now we have two scenarios. One—you were not pregnant, and two, you are still pregnant."

All the servants in the dining hall fell into stunned silence.

Pia's breathing accelerated. She darted her gaze quickly around.

Daryn and Gayle were sitting in relaxed postures with their lips curled up. Caleb was at a loss of words.

"Stop it Dawn," warned Sedora. Her hair began to rise on the back and her body started to radiate.

Dawn snapped her fingers and suddenly Sedora found herself frozen to a spot. Dawn looked at her with a raised eyebrow and a 'don't–even-try' look. She said in a soothing voice, "A mere warning."

Sedora was shocked. She couldn't move a muscle. Her body froze completely. However hard she tried, not a finger tickled.

Dawn turned back to Pia. "So tell me now, what is it? Are you pregnant?"

"I will not hear any of your nonsense," said Pia and got up to go. "I am going back to my room!"

Dawn snapped her fingers on her back all over again. She didn't know how, but she thought that she could do that magic. It was as if her mind was compelled to explore the option. And she did.

Pia's movement froze. She couldn't walk. It was as if her body was tied to a heavy weight that didn't allow her to get up. From her place she glared at Dawn not understanding what was happening to her.

Dawn continued. "The blood that was found on your bed sheet didn't belong to you. It was that of a chicken that was butchered a few hours back."

Caleb's eyes became wide. "What are you even talking about, Dawn? Have you gone insane? How dare you accuse my wife of such terrible lies?"

"I am sorry Caleb, but that's what your wife did. She played a horrible game." Then she looked at Daryn.
