Author’s POV:
Darcy had just gotten the news from Charlotte that Helanie might be pregnant. She had asked Charlotte to keep a very witty eye on Helanie and her actions. After she found out that Helanie had married Norman, she reached out to her seer again, and the seer told her Helanie was going to be the shared mate. It was like the moon goddess tried to play a game with them, but it was going to backfire so badly.
"And, what are you doing with this information?" Darcy asked Charlotte, who was lost and confused.
What was she supposed to do?
"I don’t know. I guess whatever you say," Charlotte said. She had been trying her best to make it seem like she was not a bad person anymore. But it was kind of hard for her not to be when she saw Maximus love Helanie so much. Every time she would see them together, anger would start to bubble in her veins.
"Okay, then listen to me. I have sent you something. Did you receive it?" Darcy asked.
Charlotte nodded her head, grabbing the big envelope.
"Yeah, there are some pages. From some diary, I guess," she uttered, confused.
"Yes, it’s Emmet’s diary. I have copied his handwriting and written something over it. Keep these things safe with you. Don’t utilize them yet. I’m trying to find a way to utilize something that happened to Emmet in our favor," Darcy said.
And Charlotte began to worry about what it was going to be.
"I don’t understand. What is it?" she asked.
"Okay, listen. My seer has helped me put some thoughts into Emmet’s mind with the help of the Zharns."
As soon as Darcy said that, Charlotte’s heart started to pound louder. She had heard about those things. She was afraid of those things. But Darcy being able to have that power to make them do something confused her.
Darcy thought she had found a loophole. She thought the Grey Woman was stupid. She was wasting her time. Every time she would ask for money from Darcy, Darcy thought she was just extorting her at this point. It could have been done easily. Why did she have to wait for so long?
So what if she throws Helanie into the well of sacrifice, gets rid of Helanie, her son’s shared mate, and also kills the baby? The curse would be gone. Both her oldest children and her younger twins would survive.
"Oh, that is scary," Charlotte stated, not sure if she wanted to be a part of such an elaborate crime.
"It will be all fine, Charlotte. Don’t you love Maximus?" she asked Charlotte, and Charlotte began to nod her head.
"But what do you want me to do? I’m not going to push her down," Charlotte confirmed. She wouldn’t do that.
"Don’t worry, I will do it myself. As for you, I want you to throw these papers all around Emmet’s bedroom the night I tell you. For now, keep them safe," Darcy smirked as she understood she was doing an amazing job. And she was going to get rid of all her troubles at once.
