Chapter 318: Flashback - 58

Silas’s POV

I didn’t give him any reply, just ate my food, and after eating, I stood up, paid the bill, and left from there. But when I came out, that alpha also followed me! This is why I turned to him.

"Hey, why the hell are you following me again? First, you came to my table on your own, without even asking me. Now you’re following me. You know, this is called stalking."

"But you are alone right now. I don’t want to leave you. What if something happened to you?"

There is no need for him to worry about me, because I don’t even know him. So why is he worrying about me?

But yeah, after eating, my mood was so fine. That’s why I decided to return. Because my brother was still in the palace. How could I leave him alone there for such a long time? That’s why I sat back into the carriage.

And that alpha came and grabbed onto the window. "Wait, Silas, you are leaving right now?"

I nodded and removed his hand from the window and told the driver to drive. In the meanwhile, I reached back to the palace. When I reached...

I saw Orian standing outside in the yard, and Damon was asking him something. Seeing that, only one thing came to my mind — don’t tell me he is questioning Orian about what happened a while ago.

I stepped towards them and stood in front of Orian. "What are you asking my brother, Damon?" I asked, but indeed, I was angry.

"Silas, where have you been? You know it’s been a long time since I was searching for you," Damon said.

"Damon, don’t behave like you don’t know anything about what your brother has done to me," I stated in a cold tone.

"What do you mean by this? And what did my brother do to you?"

Since Damon was saying he didn’t know what his brother had done to me, I told him everything that Lysander had done, and even the conversation that happened between me and the servant.

Damon’s eyes widened. "Silas, I am really sorry about Lysander’s behavior. I know it won’t be easy for you to handle that kind of thing. But I am here—I will punish Lysander."

Saying that, he grabbed my hand all of a sudden and took me inside. Orian also followed us. It was Damon’s study room. He made me and Orian sit on the sofa while he stood beside it and summoned Lysander.

We were all sitting, and in 10 minutes, Lysander finally came inside.

"Why did you call me, brother?"

"Lysander? Did you do something wrong?"

As Damon asked that, Lysander suddenly, without any warning, fell to his knees. He started to cry and was begging me to forgive him. He was crying so badly, saying he didn’t mean to do that, etc. I was shocked, and I glanced at Orian—he had the same reaction as me.

"Lysander, so you know you did something wrong, but what is this you’re saying about not knowing? Why did you do that?"

"Brother, I swear, it was like someone was controlling my body. I didn’t want to say those things. I didn’t want to do those things to Silas. You know how much I respect and love him. How could I do something like this to him?"

"Lysander, you’ve already done it. You first tried to rape him, then you hit him. Do you think if you say someone was controlling your body, I’m going to let you off? And even if I believe you, then can you care to tell me who was controlling your body?"

Damon is right. Why would we believe something so nonsensical—like who would control Lysander’s body when he’s this strong? Does he think someone hypnotized him or did black magic on him? It’s impossible.

"Brother, I’m telling you, I don’t know. I was in my room after talking with Silas when he told me not to hold his hand. Yes, at that moment, I was hurt by his words. But then I realized that no, he’s my mate. I was coming to apologize to him, but suddenly my mind went blank, and I did all those things—and said a lot to him too."

Damon glanced at me after hearing that before answering.

"Lysander, you can go now." As Damon said that, Lysander left from there. And Damon’s eyes turned toward me.

"Silas, don’t worry. I will punish him. But what he said is something suspicious. That’s why I sent him away from here." He sat down across from us.

"What suspicious thing are you talking about, Damon?"

I asked because I didn’t see anything suspicious, nor did I have any doubt. To me, Lysander was only making things up—there was nothing.

But when Damon started to tell me, it indeed shocked me. Because he said that such things really do exist. It’s called dark magic—evil powers, dark auras beside us—which can’t be seen by normal eyes. And those who do this are dark users, who use dark magic on someone, or evil powers that are roaming around after death. So after hearing Lysander’s words, Damon was sure that something was wrong. Because he had seen Lysander since his childhood. Even if Lysander got angry, he never hit people. Nor did he shout.

Well, as much as I know Lysander, I also don’t think he could do what he did to me. But I saw it with my own eyes, so I’m sure he can do anything to anyone. But as his brother, Damon was taking his side.

"Silas, you must be thinking that I’m taking his side. No, I’m not taking anyone’s side. I’m talking about logic here. The person we know—we know how he behaves, how he talks. And all of a sudden, he starts to talk strangely. It only means one thing. I think he is possessed or there is black magic on him."

"Then how can you be so sure that it’s because of black magic? What if you don’t know your brother’s true personality? You don’t know what he is really like on the inside. I’m not saying that what you said is impossible, but I’m talking about what I have seen with my own eyes."

"Yes, you’re absolutely right, Silas. But I’m talking about this because I have seen a similar case back during school time."

Damon said that back in school, he had a friend who used to hang out with him. But then, all of a sudden, that friend started to behave strangely—like he was just sitting in his seat without moving, only staring at people while tilting his head.

It was strange to see him so quiet all of a sudden, because that friend of Damon’s was very talkative—he couldn’t even keep his mouth shut for a moment. Damon didn’t know at that time what was happening, but then one day, Damon saw someone sitting on his friend’s back. It was a long-haired girl who looked so creepy, and she had her hands wrapped around his friend’s neck.

When Damon saw this, he tried to tell his friend, but just then he found out that his friend was crying and begging him to save him from that ghost. Damon contacted the temple, but by the time the priest reached the guy, he had already died. That ghost chewed him down even after his death.

And at that time, Damon found out about all these things—and also that he can sense these things and is able to see them too.

"Wait, it means you saw something in Lysander too?" I asked.

"Yes, there was a dark aura around him. It’s like someone had done black magic, but I’m not sure yet," he replied.

I didn’t know what to say anymore, because what Damon had just said was really terrifying, and I’m very scared of ghosts. So, was it really because of black magic that Lysander behaved like that with me? I was thinking, and just then, I felt a touch on my hand. I snapped out of my thoughts and noticed it was Orian. He was trying to comfort me.

And then Orian glanced at Damon. "Damon, even if it was because of black magic, do you really think your brother didn’t do anything wrong? Because as far as I know, those dark things control our dark desires. It means Lysander was already like this, don’t you think?" Orian said with a straight face.

"Yes, you are right. We can’t deny this. Don’t worry, I won’t let Lysander off for what he did to Silas."

Even after hearing Damon, Orian still had a straight face. Then he looked at me. "Silas, let’s go. Your head injury is still fresh, so you need to rest."

I nodded after hearing Orian, and we both left from there, saying bye to Damon. But when we came out, I saw that same alpha there whome I had just met a while ago in the main city.
