"What? I don't understand?" Max cries.
"She let Rhett and King Alaric in on the day Jacinta was killed," I tell Damian and the look of shock on his face is evident.
"It wasn't her! It wasn't Mavis! It was the bloodsucker! The one from the news! I remember his face; I saw him before Mavis tookaway," Max says.

Damian's eyes narrow. "Soren?" he asks, his voice calm, but much like me, he knows this can't go unpunished and that doesn't explain her helping Clyde and Rhett.

"What is going on?" she demands, her gaze snapping to me.

"I'll deal with this," I say finally, my voice cold and detached. "Take Max and leave, Aubrey." Aubrey hesitates, her eyes searching mine, but eventually, she nods and carries Max out of the room. His cries echo down the hallway, each one tearing atas he thrashes in Aubrey's arms.
"You opened the gates for Rhett. You let him in!" Her lips tremble, and for a moment, I think she might cry. "I thought he was filling in for his father.

"I heard King Alaric's voice; Jacinta was arguing with him and Rhett. So, I did all I could. I got Max who was hiding in the cupboard, I hid him in the hidden stairwell behind your walk-in cupboard until you got back." Damian wanders in closer. "And your excuse for helping Clyde?" I ask. Her bottom lip quivers.

"I would never betray her, that wasn't intentional. You think I would kill my best friend? Look at me, Soren, look at what has becof me. I'm dying, I have been since I lost her." "That isn't what I asked. Why did you help Clyde?" I shove my aura over her, flood her with it, forcing her to answer.
