Page 122 of His Sunshine Baby

“I should be the one saying that! What the fuck were you doing outside our border again?”

What the... I stare at my uncle, completely lost. Has he gone nuts? The only time I went outside was for Nora’s fight today!

“Are you kidding me? I had your fucking permission!”

“My permission, Elena? Seriously? To go out? When did I ever give you that?”

Oh Moon Goddess, is he fucking playing dumb on purpose?

“Iris called you! I was right there, Xavier, I heard you tell her it was fine for us to go!”

“I never said you could go anywhere! You disobeyed me on purpose! Are you trying to test my limits, Elena? I had told you if you left our territory again, there would be consequences!”

I can’t believe this man! Is he pretending it never happened just to rant at me? As if I didn’t have enough shit to deal with right now! How dare he pretend he never agreed to it? Is he just trying to screw me over for the pleasure of it? I can’t believe him!

“So that’s it? You found a way to fuck me over, Xavier? Really? I didn’t think you would stoop so low!”

“I agreed for Iris to go there, I never said you could go! Now if you blame this on my daughter this will really go bad for you, Elena!”

“Don’t you fucking threaten me on top of it!” I yell, my wolf growling.

He steps back, surprised at how I’m mad at him too. I can bear it when he’s angry at me for disobeying him, but this is fucking unfair! My wolf is furious, growling at my uncle and telling him to keep away. She’s mad and warning him to stay away from her for real. My aura is fuming, I’m so fucking mad at him!

But he suddenly comes back at me, growling even more furiously, gathering his Alpha Aura to growl back at me.

“You little bitch, how dare you rebel right in front of me! And disobey my order on purpose too! You really asked for it this time, Elena!”

He suddenly raises his hand.

“This time you’re going to–!”

But before he finishes his sentence, I see my uncle fall on the floor. I was prepared for the worst, for him to punch and fight me, but he just collapsed at my feet. What the heck?

“Hi, Elena.”

To my surprise, Sylviana is standing right there, perfectly calm. I was not ready for that. What is she doing at our place anyway? Daniel is right behind her, too, looking down at Xavier in horror.

“Oh Moon Goddess, Sylviana, please tell me you didn’t kill him!” he shrieks.

“What? Oh, of course not, I just made him sleep a little.”

Sleep? He looks like he’s in a freaking coma! My uncle is lying on the ground in a weird position, like an inanimate puppet. It’s disturbing. My eyes go from Danny to Sylviana, then to Danny again, who’s closing our door.

“Okay, is anyone going to explain to me what just happened?” I say, exhausted.

“Sorry, I’m not fond of violence,” Sylviana replies, going to our kitchen.

I look at her, completely stunned. This situation is surreal! She just had my uncle collapse out of the blue, and in front of my eyes too!

“You did something weird to me last time too!” I insist. “You were the one to give me that weird feeling the first time I met Nora!”

“Yes, I know.”

Is she going to keep talking in enigmas? Because this is frustrating! Danny walks to me with an apologetic look. He puts his hands on my shoulders and gently pushes me back to our couch. I notice his hair is still wet from the rain outside. Did he just go to get Sylviana and came back here?

“Sit down, babe. I have a couple of things I have to tell you, okay?”

“About your weird friend?”
