Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 72: Rescued

"Uncle Zane, where’s mom? Where’s Mr. Ewan? Where is Uncle Aiden?" Nathaniel asked, as soon as he opened the door, after speeding past Gianna when the knock had landed at first.

He asked, because he had smoothly checked behind Zane and the male with him, Sandro, and saw no other person. Not even a security detail.

Zane exhaled gently, bent to Nathaniel’s height, and tried lifting the boy into his arms.

But the boy stepped away from his embrace.

"I asked a question, Uncle Zane. Where is my mother?"

Zane sighed, and pushed the door wider so that he and Sandro could step into the room.

Immediately they shut the door after them, Gianna got up on her feet.

"Sandro, what’s going on? Why are you two here alone?"

Zane detested the fact that he was being ignored, but he said nothing because there was really nothing to say.

He had let an old feud almost cost him his friend. He should have known that for Gianna to have called him more than three times, there was actually something happening.

"Aiden asked us to return, so that he won’t have his hands full, protecting us too. The den looked quite dangerous. So, we had to leave; he wouldn’t move until we did." Sandro finally answered, slumping into a chair.

He bowed his head in his hands and said a word of prayer for Athena.

From the earnestness in Aiden’s eyes as he spoke on extracting Athena from the clutches of the kidnappers, he could see how much the woman meant to the man, could also see the camaraderie there; it was like a soldier fighting for his fellow soldier in death’s trap.

It had made him wonder about Athena and her recent past, but again, her safety triumphed over it.

They could discuss her past when she was safe and sound.

"What about Ewan? Was he sent away with you two?" Gianna asked, both for herself and for the sake of the twins.

Kendra was still sleeping.

"Yes, he was."

"Where is he then?" Gianna asked, noticing the irregular tap dance the feet of the twins were making on the floor at the mention of Ewan leaving with the two males.

She knew why.
