Chapter 625: Father Is Back

Duskmoon Hollow

Layla stepped into the room to see her twin, Lauren, playing with their sister Enya while Ziva paced anxiously up and down. It wasn’t a surprising sight. Their sister Ziva had the worst temper and often showed it in her violent outbursts.

In such a mood, Ziva was highly volatile and could transfer her anger to anyone in sight. Layla wisely kept her mouth shut, scared of drawing Ziva’s attention. Instead she slipped into the mental link she shared with Lauren.

Coming to sit beside her twin, she asked mentally, "What’s going on with her?"

Lauren answered without moving her eyes from Enya. "She can’t reach Hannah."

"Hannah?" Layla’s curiosity sparked.

For a while now, Hannah had been missing. The one time Layla raised the issue, Ziva told her to let it be. Of course, Layla knew something was off, but since Ziva seemed unconcerned, she had chosen not to dig deeper.

Not that it affected her much. With Hannah gone, Lillian — lowest in the family hierarchy — now handled the dirty work like feeding Bree. Still, Layla had been curious about Hannah’s absence, and it seemed she might finally get some answers.

"Why? What happened to Hannah?" she pressed.

Lauren sighed audibly through the link. "Apparently, our dear sister sent her to spy on Violet."

"Spy on Violet?" Layla’s mental voice rose. "But didn’t Father warn her...." She stopped short as realization hit. Ziva had gone behind their father’s back again. No wonder she didn’t want anyone prying into Hannah’s disappearance.

Good thing their father, Angus, barely acknowledged Hannah, considering she was the weakest of them. Otherwise, Ziva would have a lot of explaining to do. But if Hannah stayed missing much longer, even he would notice.
