Part Of The Alstreim Family?
Claire's tears cascaded down her cheeks, her smile becoming drowned in untold emotions. Now that both of the Grand Elders had left, she was no longer able to maintain that cold expression.
She flew towards her Edgar Alstreim, once again wanting to feel his fatherly embrace.
Edgar Alstreim embraced her back without any hesitation. He stayed silent, just letting her cry on his shoulders. However, his trembling body sold out his true emotions.
On the other hand, Patriarch Eldric Alstreim, who still stayed, became dumbfounded. This demon, which had just finished making them do shameful things, was now crying herself, sobbing, and embracing her father like a little girl. He finally realized that perhaps, her bravado was an act all along.
He let out a breath of air, and ruefully shook his head.
However, as the Patriarch, he was unable to let go of another matter that concerned the fate of the Alstreim Family in the Fifty-Two Territories.
