Too Eager to Leave

"When you are around your uncles and aunt, even with your grandfather, you should always be careful and watch yourself," Sienna said while drying Davi's hair with a towel after his evening bath.

The boy was standing in front of Sienna while she sat at the edge of the bed.

"Why can't we tell them about you, mama? Do you think they are bad people?"

Sienna didn't want to badmouth the Von Amstel family. They were still Davi's family after all, and she wanted to give it some time before concluding about their characters. 

"Because the more people who know my secret, the more chances there are of me getting exposed. You still remember the story of my family, right?" 

Davi nodded.

When the boy had enough wisdom to comprehend her words, she told him that she used to be a witch princess who escaped her family because they tried to harm her, and it was why she lived a life of hiding.
