The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 157

BOOK 2 CHAPTER 80

~CLARISSA~

There was fire everywhere, and for the first time in my life, I felt powerful. I didn’t have to wonder where

it came from anymore. I knew this time that this fire belonged to me. It was listening to my command,

helping me as it had done in Anya’s home.

What did this mean? Who the hell am I?

“Clarissa!” I heard a scream that I recognized immediately.

I look up and feel happiness seep through my body when I see Autumn with tears in her eyes staring at

me.

“Say good night, princess.”

That’s the last thing I remember hearing before everything goes completely blank.

The next time I open my eyes, I’m strapped to a table with a bright light above my head.

I look around the room and am surprised when I see Autumn on a table next to me, strapped down.

Why did they have both of us here? Where was Damon?

Please tell me they didn’t hurt him. Please tell me he’s okay.

“Autumn,” I croak. “Wake up!”

Her eyes are still closed, and I know I must keep trying. She had the power to get us out of here; I

know she did.

I just had to figure out where the hell this was.

“Autumn!” I shout louder.

Her eyes slowly open, and she looks around the room before her eyes fall on me. “Clarissa?”

I breathe a sigh of relief. “Do you know where we are?”

She takes a look around us before she completely freezes. She looks over at me once more.

Her eyes have tears, making me sad to see her this way.

“It’s okay,” I assure her. “I’m here with you.”

“It’s not that.” She shook her head. “Look at your arm Clarissa.”

I frown. Look at my arm. It was a weird request, but I did as she asked. I was surprised when I saw a

symbol that wasn’t there before. It was almost like it was part of me, like a branding.

It was a weird symbol, one that I didn’t recognize—a circle with a serpent inside.

“Did those psychopaths do this to me?” I ask in horror. “Did they brand me with this horrible symbol?”

The tears are flowing more from Autumn, and it scares me. “No.” She whispers. “Clarissa, you were

born with that symbol. They did not have to put it there. It is a part of you. You’re one with that symbol.

It’s known as the dark symbol.”

“The dark symbol?” I ask her. I’ve heard that already.

She nods, “do you remember what I told you about my father?” She asks. “Azai Reign. The sorcerer

who tried to rule the world. I was the only sibling out of three that didn’t possess the dark symbol. My

other two siblings were born with it.”

What was she trying to tell me?

“I know it may seem scary at first, Clarissa, but the proof is right before us.” She says. “You’re the

daughter of Azai Reign. You are a Reign. And most importantly, you are my sister.”

Autumn’s words have shocked me to the very core. For a few minutes, all I can do is stare at the bright

lights above me. It’s not possible. I cannot be his daughter. I cannot be a sorcerer’s daughter.

No matter how much I wanted to deny it, I couldn’t deny the things I’d seen or the power inside of me

that had only recently been unleashed.

That fire has been waiting for the right opportunity to break free, and it has finally done so.

Everything those men said to me made sense now. It’s why they referred to my sister multiple times.

It’s been Autumn all along. She’s been my sister this entire time.

I still didn’t want to believe it. I never thought that my birth father would be someone so insane. A part

of me always hoped that my parents were alive, but I was happy that he was gone. I can’t imagine what

life would have been like if he was still alive. Things would have been so much more different. I would

have never met Damon, and I can’t find anything more depressing than not having him in my life.

“I know it’s scary,” Autumn tells me. “It was hard for me at first to accept it. Even now, I wish my father

was someone else, but there’s no use running from it. And if I had a chance to wish for a sister, I would

have wished for someone like you. Knowing now that you are indeed my sister, it makes me so happy.

I’m happy that it’s you, Clarissa.”

I can feel the tears forming in my eyes at her confession. We were both crying now.

“I feel the same way, Autumn,” I respond. “You were wonderful to me even before I knew who you

were. I’m thankful that I’ve finally found you.”

She smiles, “No matter what happens today. I’m glad we are finally reunited.”

I nod; it’s true; we had no clue what would happen to us after this reunion.

“I know you’re listening to us, Skyler,” Autumn says suddenly. “You can come out from the dark now. I

can sense you.”

A shiver runs down my spine when I hear a man’s laughter.

He does as she says and walks into the light where we can have a full view of him.

“You have improved, Autumn.” He praises her. “I’m impressed. I must say that this was indeed a

beautiful reunion.”

“Why are we here?” She demands. “What the hell do you want with us?”

“Is that any way to speak to an old friend?” He asks her. “I’m on your side, Autumn. I don’t mean you or

your sister any harm. We are here to protect you both.”

“Stop lying.” She growls. “You’re here to control us. You want to turn us into the monster our father was.

I don’t care what you try; it will never work. Clarissa and I are nothing like our father, and nothing you

do to us can change that.”

The thought of us ever becoming like our father terrified me.

“I hate to hear you curse your father’s good name, Autumn.” He scolds her. “He was a very good man

with different views from society. If you open your mind a little, maybe you could see that too.”

“Get us out of here.” She shouts, ignoring his words.

“Where is Damon?” I demand. “What did you do to him?”
