Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down by Patricia Maradiaga

Chapter 83

83 It is best to tell the truth When he got up, the first thing Cassian did was go look for his brother.

When he opened the door to his room, he found Alessandro there.

Apparently, he had also gone to look for him.

_ Were you going somewhere? _| was going to look for you.

_ Have you been able to find out anything? _You better cin.

Alessandro entered the room, Cassian closed the door and said to him.

_The information guild couldn't find any information about April's mother, it was as if she hadn't existed before

she married King Venobich.

_That can't be.

_While | was waiting for them to givethe information about April's mother, | met a girl, she had a strange

book.

_ Have you found _Don't be silly Lessan, it's not that, what | mean is that she toldabout the magic of light,

the magic that April possesses.

_Really? _And you won't believe what he told me.

_ That? _That only elves possess light magic.

_ Do elves exist? _Apparently so, but they live hidden in their kingdom and that's why nobody knows about them,

but as | was saying, it is a very rare magic even among elves, only those of noble blood, the elven royalty,

possess it.

_But April is human.

_I don't think so.

_ Are you saying my wife is an elf? _Yes, although not completely, | think she's only half elf, | think April's mother

was an elf, that's why no one knows anything about her other than her name, Sophia, and that she was King

Venobich's first wife.

_That's crazy.

_I'm not sure if that's true, but otherwise how could you explain that she continues to communicate with April

after she dies through dreams? No magician has ever been able to do something like that.

_So April not only has royal blood from King Venobich, but also from her mother who was an elf princess.

_I think so, I'm not really sure, I'll go back to the guild and ask for information from the elves.

_Why didn't you do it now that you were there.

_ There they charge you for every question you ask! | was left without money, if | had asked another question |

would have ended up losing my clothes.

_l guess that's a good reason.

_I really don't understand why King Venobich gave his daughter to you, he must have known about her lineage.

_I think he sent her here to die, by sending her he didn't want to seal peace, but war, he wanted her to be the

reason for starting a war again.

_But things didn't go the way he wanted.

_No, because he didn't expectto end up falling in love with her.

_ And what do you plan to do? Will you tell him about his lineage? _Don't know...

_She talks to her mother, she could ask her, know the true story behind all this.

_Maybe you're right, but what good would it do to know his lineage, besides we're not even sure of anything, we

don't know if elves really exist, maybe it's just a story.

_What are you afraid of, brother? _Nothing.

_Well, it's not what it seems.

_Find out a little more about the elves, then I'll think about what to do.

_If that is your decision | will respect it, but keep in mind that lying does not lead to anything good.

_I know that Cas, I'm not saying | won't tell him, just that | will do it when we have something more than simple

assumptions, nothing more.

Outside in the hallway the voices of two children were heard, Cassian asked.

_ Are there children in this place? _Yes, they are two orphans that April found on the street and brought here.

_And what do you plan to do with them? _For now, keep them.

Cassian put a hand on his brother's shoulder and said.

_Well, you wanted a child, you already have two.

_I don't think that's a good idea, if | take them to the palace as my adopted children, the nobles will make a big

scandal and they won't stop until | have a blood child, you know that they still haven't given up on having

another wife.

_ You're not going to do that, are you? _Of course not.

Alessandro touched the marriage mark on his hand and said.

_If 1 didn't consider that idea before, I'm not considering it now.

| just want to protect those children.

I'll find someone to take care of them.

_You could send them to the academy.

_No, | promised April that I would find them a family and that's what | plan to do, I will keep my promise.

Alessandro walked to the door and said.

_Con, I'll introduce you to them.

Upon leaving the room, Alessandro approached Abril and the children, they were touching his hair and asking

him.

_ Is this really your hair color? _Yeah.

_It's red like an apple.

April had always found the color of her hair unpleasant, it was red like the color of blood, when the children told

her it was red like an apple, she realized that she had always thought wrongly.

Alessandro, seeing that those children were touching his wife so casually, said to them.

_Stop touching my wife.

The children, hearing the stern tone of Alessandro's voice, felt afraid and hid behind Abril and she told him.

_Lessan, stop, you're scaring the children Alessandro kissed Abril and said.

_I don't like another man touching you.

_ They are not men, they are still children.

The children felt hurt by April's response, Cassian laughed and said.

_Aby I think you've hurt his pride.

April stroked the children's heads and said to them.

"That wasn't my intention, kids." Cassian approached them and said.

_Hello kids, I'm Cassian, what are your names? _Otis and Joe.

Otis replied a little shyly.

Cassian smiled at them and said.

_Nice to meet you guys, my brother is a little grumpy, but he's a good person so don't hate him.
