I can sense Mal's frustration and anger .. not only to Hadeon but knowing the truth about her family not being her family.
Hadeon's eyes narrowed, a glimmer of intensity flickered through them as he watched Mallory's clumsy attempts. "Is that all you've got, Mallory Winchester? It is pitiful," he remarked, his voice deepening with sincerity rather than mockery.

"Truth is bitter, monkey. But it is what it is. Jump like a monkey now. Quick," Hadeon retorted with a theatrical sigh, his arms open wide.

Hadeon wore a crazy smile on his lips. Mallory couldn't help but think to herself that this is how one dug their grave. "Come on, then. By the looks of it, you might get carried away with the rain water considering your beaver height. Let's rescue you before you sprout roots."

carry her and fly 🤣
"Do you want me to carry your shoes for you, then? You are, after all, carrying my coat." Hadeon turned his head slightly, "Or are you suggesting that I carry you?" he teased

sweet
"Use that," and he began to walk without another word, and she quickly followed him before she lost him.

"Oh that! I gave them for ironing as they had creases, you see," Hadeon replied sarcastically. "Besides, it isn't that I can't fly in the air right now. Because I do like the tickle when the lightning strikes me, but I am not sure if you will survive it."

"Being a monkey doesn't sound that bad anymore, does it?" Hadeon cracked a smile and Mallory scowled at him. "It isn't so bad. You might be something better than a mere human."

then what is she?
"Curiosity killed the cat. But curiosity cannot kill Hadeon," the pureblooded vampire replied in a nonchalant tone. "And that cross can be worn only by my serphant and no one else. Anyone else will die in twenty four hours, and to think you were planning to give it to a poor soul. How heartless! Now you do not have serphant's blood, and I doubt you are purely human."

now that made me laugh 😅
"True, but it would have been troublesome knowing your reputation of digging out graves when it's raining," Hadeon tried to lighten the atmosphere. He then climbed inside the carriage and Mallory soon followed him.

"Witches have a reputation for stealing children and using them as their own. Sometimes for potions, sometimes… like what might have happened," Hadeon's words were calm and collected. "It is possible that the actual Mallory didn't survive, and you were taken to replace her."

I know you're trying to cheer her up but it's not time to joke pal .
"Even though there has been a Mallory whom you replaced, you are the only Mallory Winchester that the world knows," Hadeon remarked, standing behind her. "The one famous for her slaps and punches, the so-called murderer. You just have to continue living the way you have without being lost."

that's sad to know but your Grandma has kept you safe.
"There has been no Mallory the first," Mallory whispered, feeling a little dizzy. All this while she was not related to the family she believed she had been part of.

ok that's good she's not a witch. But my curiosity is still killing me .. I need to know more!!!!
"No, you aren't a witch, but that would also mean you are not related to her by blood. A witch's blood tastes rotten and is far from vintage," Hadeon explained. "If it helps, you might be Mallory the second."

witch ????? i hope not from the bad lineage. A white witch perhaps . ?
"I had my doubts and sent Barnby to investigate your family background," Hadeon said, his golden eyes fixed on her. "Your grandmother, or the woman you knew as your grandmother, was never a serphant. She was a witch, and neither are you a serphant."

this mind blowing 🤯
"We always called him Grandpa. His name didn't seem important when I was young—just the relationship," Mallory whispered. Her heart pounded as she dared to ask, "Whose body is in there?"

"Touche, monkey. I'm fifteen percent impressed. But too bad you're fighting me—this is why the wise choose to fight alongside me." He then used his other hand and pressed the tip of her nose, "Boop. So adorable."
