The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 124
~CLARISSA~
Autumn, Atticus, and I were in the same vehicle together. Griffin and Damon were with Anya and her
sister in the vehicle ahead of us. And Dante was with everyone else behind.
“Do you mind telling us where you were?” Atticus asks me as he looks at me through the rearview
mirror.
“I had to get answers,” I tell him. “Once we reach the pack house, I’ll explain everything. But Autumn,
we were right about Anya all along. However, she’s much worse than any of us ever thought.”
Atticus’s hands tighten on the steering wheel at my words. I had finally cornered her. She had nowhere
to run to. Her time was very limited.
“I told you not to go there without me.” Autumn scolds me. “I knew how dangerous it would have been.
Look at your condition; why must you always put yourself in danger?”
Now she sounded just like Atticus, scolding me for putting my life in danger.
“Where did she go?” Atticus demands. “And how do you seem to always know more than me when it
concerns Clarissa? How much have you been keeping from me, Autumn? I thought that there were
supposed to be no secrets between us. What exactly have the two of you been up to all this time?”
Autumn gets silent at his questions. She knows just as much as I do that there was plenty she was
keeping from him.
“Tell me.” He insists. “What have you both been hiding from me?”
Before she can give an answer, we hear a loud explosion behind us.
“What the f**k was that?” Atticus asks.
I looked back to see that another vehicle had just crashed into Dante’s jeep. What’s happening? This
wasn’t good.
Another vehicle overtakes us and moves to block Damon’s jeep from going any further.
“What’s happening?” Autumn asks in horror.
They’re not the only vehicles. There’s more coming. Four others, to be exact.
“It’s an ambush,” Atticus shouts. “We’re under attack!”
He pulls the jeep to a stop at the side of the road, and we all get out.
“It’s Anya!” I shout. “She must have had this plan all along. This must be her backup plan if the
marriage didn’t take place. They were waiting for us!”
“Why would she want to attack us?” Atticus demands, clueless like always.
“Because we killed her mother!” I shout. “The witch that claimed to have Anya under her spell, the
same witch that tried to kill me, and the same witch that wanted us all dead is none other than Anya’s
mother.”
I pull the picture out of my dress and show it to them.
Atticus’s eyes turn dark with fury as realization finally hits him.
“I can’t believe it. All this time, she’s been our enemy. All this time, it’s been her.” Autumn gasps. “How
could she do this?”
Atticus ran a hand down his face and pinched the bridge of his nose. He looks like he’s in a state of
shock. Of course, he will be; at one point, Anya was the love of his life; at least, that’s what she wanted
him to believe.
“And who are all of these people?” Autumn asks as they jump out of their vehicles.
Dante and the others joined us next.
“It must be friends of Anya or friends of her mother,” I answer her. “She was planning to marry into our
family. She must have wanted to get closer to us, to gain our trust before she attacked. She didn’t
expect me to find out the truth before she could marry Damon.”
“What madness are you saying, Clarissa?” Dante asks.
“Are you not realizing that Anya is no longer beside us?” I ask him. “She’s joining the others.”
At my words, he looks around for her and is surprised to see her with the enemy.
“What is going on?” Damon demands.
“Anya’s mother is none other than the witch who tried to kill me, Damon,” I answer him as his eyes
widen.
“Yes, that’s right. The woman you were planning to marry, the woman that I begged you to stay away
from, turns out to be the same woman that was almost responsible for my death.” I taunt him. “She isn’t
the sweet, innocent girl the three of you thought she was. This was all a plan that she came up with
along with her mother. She was sent to harm us. And she did a very good job at it.”
I push the picture onto his face, and he grabs it from my hand. His eyes narrow as he crumbles it.
“ANYA!” He roars. His voice rocked the atmosphere but had no effect on her. She didn’t look afraid now
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthat she had others on her side.
Dante is the only one that looks heartbroken, maybe because he’s still under her spell, unlike the
others.
He walked over to her even though she was now surrounded by people who planned to harm us.
I tried to stop him, but Atticus held me back.
“Is this true?” He asks her gently. “Are you responsible for everything that has been happening to my
family recently? Was everything just a plan to get closer to us so that you could hurt us in the end?”
Her eyes were emotionless and cold as she glared at him. She didn’t have to pretend anymore; she
could show her true feelings.
“Of course it’s true.” She snaps. “Did you think I was truly in love with you all this time? Are you blind? It
was obvious that I didn’t love you. I liked you the least out of those other two. The only one I ever had
feelings for was Atticus, and that asshole broke my heart when he chose to be with Autumn. I tried my
best to protect him from my mother. She had plans to get rid of all of you just to hurt your parents, but I
asked her to protect Atticus. I should have never listened to my heart because, in the end, it cost me,
my mother. I never loved you, Dante, and I never loved Damon. You don’t love me either; you’re under
a spell I put on you. At first, it was my mother, but after she died, I had to continue with her plan. I had
to finish the job for her.”
How could she speak to him like that? He was in pain, for crying out loud! Why wasn’t the spell
breaking? Why was he the only one that still loved her so much?
“I know my f*****g feelings, and it’s not because of a damn spell!” Dante roars. “I love you, damn it.
How could you betray my feelings for you? I trusted you. I protected you. Why would you do this to me?
Why Anya, why?”
