Morwenna retumed to the bedside, scooped Keirs up, and walked out “As far as I’m concemed” Morwenna said. “If your mother finds out, rl be the one she hears from. I can’t believe she’d allow a caregiver to mistreat her daughter like this.” “What are you talking about? When have lever mistreated her? Don’t put words in my mouth! The caregiver stepped forward, trying to snatch Keim back. “Her mom left her in my hands, that means I have every right to take care of her. Let her go!” But Morwenna didn’t let go. If Keim had chosen to stay silent, that might have been the end of it. But since Keira had voiced her desire to leave with Morwenna, there was no way Morwenna would leave without her She was from the mountains, where people couldn’t stand to see the weak getting bullied. The burly caregiver couldn’t wrestle Keira from Morwenna’s gmsp. Morwenna was just too strong. Furious and not used to being defied, the caregiver stopped trying to pull Keira away and instead aimed a slap at her. Morwenna’s eyes flashed dangerously.

Stuart surveyed his handiwork, his voice playful yet threatening. “Fun, huh? Looks like your hands are useless, too. Shall we break those as well? Finally snapping out of her daze, Morwenna set Keirs down and rushed to Stuart, grabbing him. She had seen Stuart act before, one time when she first barged into his room and nearly got strangled, another time on the roller coaster that almost cost Barclay and others their lives. Stuart was fierce. As Stuart got angry at the time, she didn’t know what he might do For some reason, Morwenna didn’t want to see this side of Stuart Stuart pulled back and looked down with a fierce glare, displeased at being interrupted. Morwenna wasn’t sure what she was thinking. She went ahead and hugged Stuart tightly, her tone soothing. “Stuart, it’s okay. Everything’s fine.” Stuart stared at Morwenna holding him tightly, momentarily lost in confusion. What was Morwenna up to? Was she trying to soothe him? How ridiculous Stuart found it absurd, yet the fierceness in his eyes slowly dissipated. After a while, as Stuart remained still, Morwenna finally let go.
