Alpha's Rejected Mate Returns as Queen

Chapter 144



A woman’s voice came from upstairs. It was weak as she said, “Of course, baby. I like whatever you make.”

The girl brought lunch upstairs. Her mother was no longer as high-spirited as she was when she was young.

The woman’s face was pale, and her body was thin. She was listless as she leaned on the sofa next to the stove. Only a pair of bright eyes shone like the sun against the fire, but it was unspeakably strange in this situation.

Dorothy continued.

The girl and her mother were quietly eating dinner. Suddenly, the girl asked, “Mother, where did my father go?”

The woman almost dropped her spoon and asked, “Why are you suddenly asking this?”

The girl said, “Linda left school early. She said that her father came to visit her and her mother, so she wanted to go home early to have lunch with her parents. Where’s my father? Mother, why didn’t he come to see us?”

The woman was silent for a while. “Let’s eat, child. The food won’t taste good when it’s cold.”

The girl was sensible and did not ask further.

It was another blurry dream during which the girl had grown up again.

She remembered the day she awakened.

“I’m very uncomfortable, Mother...” the girl mumbled in a daze.

The woman had to support her fragile body to care for her daughter. Although she had a powerful spell that could give any furniture temporary life to take care of her daughter, the worry in her eyes revealed that she did not want to leave her daughter in the hands of others on such an important day.

“I feel so dizzy, I feel like puking...” the girl was half-unconscious when she suddenly said, “Did Older Brother feel like this too?”

“What?” The woman didn’t react for a moment.

“Older Brother... Does Older Brother also feel this uncomfortable when he awakened?”

The woman looked sad and tucked her daughter in. She only said, “Have a good rest.”

Before completely losing consciousness, the girl seemed to have heard a sentence, “I don’t know...”

The last clear part of the dream came before everything was destroyed.

The girl was thrilled because her brother had found her.

The family of three hugged each other tightly. The axe in the elder brother’s hand fell to the ground, raising a layer of snow.

The girl was living happily with her mother and brother. She was already a big girl but still couldn’t get rid of her attachment to her mother. When a new family member arrived, not only was this attachment not divided into two, but it grew.

She felt extremely happy being with her family.

Sometimes, she would see her mother’s sad expression. When that happened, it was because she was in the corner watching her brother’s busy back.

“Mom, why are you unhappy?” she asked.

“I’m not unhappy. Go and help your brother,” the woman said.

The girl stubbornly asked, “Why are you unhappy? Are you afraid of me leaving? It’s okay. We can go with Brother. Although wizards can’t stay in a witch clan, and witches can’t stay in a wizard clan, we can move out of the village and live in seclusion, just like Linda’s family.”

The woman didn’t say anything. She just smiled and shook her head.

That smile was so sad and beautiful.

The girl was still dreaming of a happy and stable family of three until that night.

Standing at the door of her mother’s bedroom, the girl’s eyes widened in shock.

The bed was covered in blood. The mother’s body was lying lifelessly on the pillow, and her head was in her son’s hands.

The girl’s brother looked at his sister’s stiff body sadly and stammered, “I... Don’t...”

“Why?”

The girl exploded in extreme shock and anger.

“Why did you do that?!”

She didn’t understand why her dear brother would kill their mother. Were they not happy? Did her brother not love her mother? Was he not their family?

The magnificent magic power instantly swept through the whole village, and the witches woke up one after another, rushing to the girl’s house.

The girl’s brother was also a powerful wizard, but under the siege of so many witches, he was outnumbered and finally caught and tied to the stake.

The girl, whose eyes were filled with hatred, personally ignited the wood that had been poured with oil. She placed her mother’s head and body in front of her tortured brother as a tribute.

The moment the flames swallowed him, the elder brother summoned the demon in his painful wails. However, the demon played with him and made him lose his biological mother after losing his adoptive father.

The angry brother had decided to die with the demon, but the power of the two would raze the witch clan and half of the Rocky Mountains to the ground.

The girl had no choice but to join the witches to seal them, but she had to be a key to guard the seal forever.

At the critical moment, the girl saw her mother’s soul.

She pushed her out and only had time to say, “Live on.”

The fire engulfed the pine forest.

Amidst the scorching heat, Dorothy woke up from her dream.
