Chapter 114
Chapter 114 “Daniel Rutherford?” Hope’s eyes widened to learn that it was her ex, who planned the attack on Logan. “I will kill him tonight,” Logan growled, the color and size of his pupils changed. “Where is he?” he inquired him. “Downstairs. I have brought him here. His elder brother and father have also come,” Clifton informed him. Both Logan and Hope went downstairs, where the Rutherford Family was present. “Daniel, be ready to die,” Logan said as he descended the stairs as quick as possible. Cesar rushed to Logan, begging him for the mercy. Daniel was on his knees, asking for an apology for his crime. However, seeing Hope alive his eyes grew big. The hunter had informed him that Hope was dead. “Cesar, your son committed a henious crime. He sent someone to kill Hope,” Logan furiously said as he yanked off Cesar’s hand from his arm. He marched to Daniel and pulled him up by the collar of his shirt. His fiery red gaze was the evidence of his anger. “Logan, why don’t you listen to me just once? I didn’t wish to do it. Someone make me do it, but I don’t remember who?” Henry tried keeping his opinion to the front, but Logan didn’t wish to hear any of his nonsense. “Clifton, bring the wolfsbane. I will make him drink that. He should know what pain Hope underwent,” Logan commanded. Camila and the ser vants were scared to see this side of their master. Also, the truth Camila sought from Hope was finally revealed. “Yes, Master.” Clifton was quick to follow Logan’s command as he left the living room. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Cesar and Lucas were scared thinking they would lose Daniel forever. On the other hand, Hope was conflicted. If Daniel would die, then a huge misunderstanding might get created between the Lycans and the werewolves. However, saving him would be a problem too. What if he would attempt to harm
them again? “Hope, hear me out. I didn’t mean to harm you,” Daniel pleaded with his eyes. He could see the death was hovering over him. The annoying fact was he couldn’t recall on whom instructions he decided to take such a step. He knew someone was there, but he couldn’t recall that person. “Shut your mouth. You have lost any right to even take my wife’s name,” Logan said and he threw Daniel on the tiled floor. The thud sound was massive as it caused a slight tremor on the floor. Daniel coughed blood as he hit the floor. He felt his spine cracked because of the impact. Daniel’s father, Cesar Rutherford, got on his knees and begged Hope to stop Logan. “I will punish Daniel in my way, but please hear to this father. I will forever be grateful to you, Hope, if you save my son today. He keeps saying someone forced to do it but he is unable to recall that person.” Cesar eyes were brimmed with tears because he couldn’t see his son dying right in front of his eyes. “Hope, I have never asked anything from you. But just stop Logan. Daniel was indeed compelled by someone. There is an unknown number on his phone right before Logan and you were attacked. Let’s find out who exactly did this. Please, Hope. I will do everything to repent for my brother’s mistake,” Lucas pleaded with her this time. Hope had felt Logan’s pain of her loss and if she would ask him for letting go Daniel, he would definitely be upset. She was in utter dilemma of choosing the right way. But she couldn’t ignore the fact that someone compelled Daniel to attack them. She couldn’t let him die without knowing the truth. Clifton had returned with the box of wolfsbane flower. Logan was ready to stuff it in Daniel’s mouth when Hope stopped him. Logan directed a quizzical glance at her. “Don’t show any mercy on Daniel, Hope. You had almost lost your life,” he said, anger surging through his veins. Hope approached him and held Logan’s arms. She caressed them to make him feel comforted. “Logan, I am alive. I know what Daniel did is punishable, but don’t kill him like this. Let’s find another way to punish him. Also, Uncle Cesar and Brother Lucas say that someone compelled Daniel. We need to find
out the truth to find out our real enemy before taking any decision,” she explained to him in her gentle tone. Logan peered into Hope’s eyes. “You need not to be kind, Hope. This man tried to kill you for the third time. I bet the elevator incident was planned by him as well,” he proclaimed. The excruciating pain which he underwent was visible in his voice, face and eyes. “No, I didn’t,” Daniel managed to speak. He had broken his arm, but luckily his spine was saved. “There was someone who asked me to kidnap Hope. But I’m you. unable to recall the person. The arrow wasn’t supposed to hit her. It was for Please don’t kill me, Logan. I will repent on my mistakes,” he said while shedding the genuine tears. Daniel was never scared in his life like he was today. “Logan, we have to bring a peace among us. So, let’s not punish Daniel by giving him death sentence,” Hope shared her decision to him. “Please,” she urged. Cesar and Lucas came toward Logan. “We will do everything to find this person. Because Daniel is unable to recall the person, I believe it’s a witch,” Cesar assured them while speculating that a witch planned this sudden attack. +5 “Take him away. I cannot stand his sight. Also, I want his ability to transform to be taken away,” Logan instructed Cesar. “It is not a request bug an order,” he sternly said. “Sure, Logan. Daniel will no longer be a werewolf. We will punish him because what he did today cannot be ignored,” Cesar stated as he looked at Daniel, who was wincing in pain. After Daniel left with his family to the hospital, Logan drank a full glass of water and sat on the couch. Clifton and Hope wondered if he was calm or not while Camila was quite intimidated to see Logan’s earlier avatar. “Aunt and the other ser vants should go to the quarter,” Hope told her as she caressed her arm. Camila nodded and walked away after looking at Logan for the last time. Logan scratched the temple of his forehead. Before Hope could call out his name, a security guard
came running inside. “Master, two people have come in the car. They want to see Madam Hope. Should I allow them inside?” the security guard asked. “Yes, allow them,” said Logan as he dropped his hand down and brought his hands to his waist. “Logan, are you fine? I know you didn’t wish to pardon Daniel, but I thought we should not kill him because his father and brother would not have lied to us,” Hope asserted. “I understand, Hope. Just stay quiet,” Logan stated. She pursed her lips together and sat on the couch, awaiting her aunt and uncle to enter the hall. Clifton went to Logan and asked him to not take his anger on Hope. “As a luna, she took the right decision,” Clifton murmured. “I vowed to protect her and vowed to kill anyone who harms her,” Logan said in a low voice. Hope couldn’t hear their conversation, but she prayed in her head that Logan’s anger would soon dissipate.
