Leah’s Suspicion

“You only have one chance, boy, so make it count.”

These words were spoken coldly, making Ethan understand that this was Leah’s ultimatum.

If he failed to convince Lily’s Mother that he was worthy of her daughter, then there was a chance that Leah would get in the way of their relationship.

Ethan had no intention of letting that happen. Not only was Lily his first lover, but she was also the one who saved him when he was feeling hopeless and helpless back in the Lands of Alastor.

He would not let her go no matter what.

But there was one thing that bugged him, and he made his opinion known.

“Mother, you ask me why you should allow Lily to stay by my side, but you never asked her why she wanted to stay by my side,” Ethan replied in a calm manner. “Have you asked her why she chose me as her lover?”

Professor Rinehart and Lyall gave Ethan a thumbs up in their hearts because he had the guts to talk back to Leah in this manner.
