Ryan was more shocked. He would beg Elenore so she might have given their adoption to his father but she hated them and it was the last thing she perhaps could have accepted to do.
"No, not at all, I, I am so surprised."
He replied, steading his chest, Ryan looked back at the healer who was now stitching the woman's hand and she was cursing during her screams.
Luna approached and stood beside him, looking downward where the woman was sitting to be healed.
"She didn't let him come to my sister. They don't care we die."
Elizabeth saw Elenore who was behaving weird while the world was murky for the girls, her face was as normal as always.
"Where is the girl?"
The healer asked after he finished washing his hand in the bowl that Anastasia brought him.
Barbara led the man up the stairs when Elenore's eyes drifted on Luna. They just stared at each other for a moment then Luna saw a smirk on her lips that she faded away.
Luna wouldn't say this to Elizabeth because she couldn't spare this until taking her guts out. Now Luna didn't need any excuse to be assured that this woman enticed them only for wealth.
Ryan outstretched his hand hauled Luna with him. To him, it wasn't necessarily an adequate notion to let Luna be around Elenore. She wasn't patient too and could kill the woman.
Luna brought speed to her pace, Elenore had an intriguing aura and could mislead every man.
The healer reached the room and his face ran pale as he saw Elizabeth's pale face.
"Is she suffering starvation?"
It was the first thing he asked, the girl was living in a glorious palace but her figure was as if a kid who worked hard in the mines of Ruby in the south.
Uncle Miguel gazed at Barbara. The maiden now found no reason to be muted.
"Yes, lady Elenore punished her for a week, she had only one meal of vegetables in each day of the past week."
Miguel got to his feet. He noticed that Elizabeth didn't eat too much food in his house so it was the main reason.
"Luna, you are coming with me!"
The healer shook his head to get rid of the huge shock. He began aiding the girl, after checking her body.
Outside of the room, Ryan chased them. Uncle Miguel knelt in front of the girl, grabbing two sides of her arms.
"Tell me, Luna! What has been going on? What did she do to you?"
Luna's eyes grew teary. She promised Elizabeth not to say a word to anyone. The word gathered in her throat and locked the way, she couldn't hold it at all.
Their stepmother had no tenderness that could make the girls forgive her.
"She punished her for keeping the daggers that she gained from you. She had collected five but the woman called her Wilding. She made Dorian punish her. But the bruises appeared because of not eating well, Barbara used to give her food in private but she caught both of them and lashed Barbara. Elizabeth shielded herself to protect her."
She closed her eyes and let out the burning words that she hardly afforded to speak about, memorizing it had made her heart heavier than it was before.
Miguel sensed the chill that what she just said sent down his spine. Elenore tormented the girls when Lucas was absent during the past week. He felt the heat that was coming out of Luna's body. She was as angry as Elizabeth.
"Why didn't you tell your father?"
"She said that father hates us and would send us to the court or a temple. Elizabeth wished not to say a word. It was my fault for being mute. I should have protected her."
"I know, I want Barbara to come and work in our house after being fired. I won't use her as a witness because it can put her life in danger."
"Would you take us with you?"
Luna asked. She didn't expect to hear yes because it was already hard to take them from Elenore.
"I do my best, Luna! You shouldn't think about it, now. I will ask her to feed you so please have some rest to gain strength and fight for freedom."
Luna nodded and walked to the room when Barbara appeared behind him.
She went to Elizabeth. Her sister coughed and opened her eyes, slowly.
"It was bitter."
She informed, blankly watching her sister who was beside her.
"I won't die. Don't worry."
She grinned widely.
"You scared me, piggy!" Luna said and squinted on her sister, leaving a kiss on her forehead.
"I saw our parents! They were in green plains."
The healer wrapped his bag of drugs and potions then gazed at Luna, "take care of your sister and make certain that she would eat well."
Luna bobbed her head in reply.
"Thank you, healer!"
The man smiled at her and left. Luna walked to the table and picked the book, putting it inside the bag.
"I will wrap our clothes, rest well and become stronger, we must gain our freedom."
"They turned to Wolves and surged to us."
Luna halted near the closets.
"What?" She didn't turn and stood there.
"The story that you gave me affected my dreams," Elizabeth noted and her wide grin changed to a frown. She wiggled up to lean back, when she saw Ryan at the doorway, "you are here too."
"I am here to protect our girls."
"We are your only relatives."
Ryan nodded. He knew it better than anyone and it didn't need any indication but he was aware of Elizabeth's rough personality, therefore, it didn't upset him.
"Come inside, help me to take the luggage out."
He crossed the door frame and went to her noting, "I won't touch the girl's dresses."
That made Elizabeth chuckle.
"Why? Would it put you out from being a man? Should I remark that you have a long way to become that so now learn some manner!"
She mocked him.. Ryan shrugged and went to the closet that Luna opened its door.
