『XVIII. Black Heart』

  Duke and the hunters were waiting for Blair at the back door of the mansion . Seeing her mother, she tried to act normal , but he was a despicable being to hide it from her. Joseph and Duke were in front , while Hannah and Blair followed them . When we arrived in a corridor with multiple paths , they separated and mother and daughter walked carefully through the darkness . Realizing that her daughter was different, Hannah came over and whispered :
- Are you okay ?
- I am , do not worry , Mom.
- If you want to talk , I'm here .
  Blair evaluated whether or not tell . Even hearing the voice of her father always repeating the same phrase , she did not think it was fair to hide something so important to everyone. She knew the temperament of the mother , however, Hannah suffered for it.
- Mom, you could keep a secret ?
  Hannah nodded smiling .
- You know that window that was open when we entered the garden of the mansion ?
- What happened ?
- Well .. I promised not to tell , but not fair to you .
- Blair , say it !
  Blair looked at the floor . Do not know if I was doing the right thing , however they were a family and a family has no secrets .
- Dad is alive .
  Hannah froze , looking at his daughter as if she were speaking another language that anyone could understand .
- You sure about that ? I saw his father die! Cameron saw the dagger dirty with his blood ! Blair , you must be mistaken .
  Blair did not answer , just sniffed the air and grabbed the mother by the wrist , guiding it to the last door on the right side of the long , dark hallway . The girl touched the knob and realized the door was unlocked . Hannah pushed her inside and then quickly entered , closing the door with a quiet click behind her.
- Blair , what you think you're doing ? We have no time for jokes !
- Hannah ?
  The hunter looked in the direction where the voice came , and saw the moonlight illuminating the silhouette of Benjamin . She rubbed her eyes and looked at Blair , who smiled and nodded . Benjamin was also smiling and approached the hunter , giving her a tender embrace .
- You should have kept secret , young lady .
- Sorry .
- It's okay, you did what was right .
  He opened an arm and Blair cuddled him , next to his mother , who still could not believe what was happening . Benjamin felt complete for the first time , but knew it could not last long. Cameron or someone would come and he did not want the two most important people in his life ran out injured. He kissed her daughter 's forehead and touched the lips of Hannah .
- You have to go now . Cameron must be on guard and do not hesitate to come here .
  They nodded and went out the door , exactly where Cameron was . Luckily , they were near the exit to another hallway and passed unnoticed . Blair told what he knew to his mother as they walked and soon found Duke and Joseph in front of a door made ​​of white cedar waiting for them .
  A curtain of red velvet was on one wall and a hand pulls Blair in his direction . Realizing that Blair was gone , they began to scour the mansion again, but finding no clues to the whereabouts of the girl. Duke began sniffing , but could not find it .

   Blair fell face down on a white and polished . The wind howled and bounced in her hair and then she realized she was not in any room . Was on top of the mansion , where it was probably some sort of coverage.
  A laugh echoed and prickled the hairs on the nape of Blair , who soon saw a man with dark brown hair and green eyes looking at her. He was wearing a shirt, pants and black dress shoes . This dress made ​​her remember Cameron and was not afraid to pronounce his name .
- Richard .
