Chapter 36: Luna's Garden

"Mama, I wish to leave here..." Sander said when we were in the tub to take a bath. "It's been three days..."

I combed his wet golden wavy hair. "I told you we can't, Sander. This place is heavily guarded," I said softly.

"But I do not want to see Papa..." He hugged me. "He hurt you... I did not know that sire is my father. Now, I know why he said that he was guarding his son while his Mama was at work... I am sorry, Mama."

I released a sigh. "It is fine. You did not know. He was in disguise and wanted to get close to you by that time." That was the plausible reason I could think of.

I should have known that Desmond was already here trying to get along with our son. I did not know that he already knew about the existence of our son. It was a good thing that Sander did not like his father now because he already witnessed how we argued.

It would be a hard time for Desmond to get along with us.
