Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down by Patricia Maradiaga

Chapter 121

124 The keys of Hades Sophia sighed heavily, she had thought about talking secretly with Ethan and leaving

April's body, however, everything had gotten out of control.

_This is not the tto fight among ourselves, if Vritra is not stopped soon, darkness will rise again over this

world.

_You said you knew what King Venobich was up to, tell us what you know? _That's right, Vritra is part of an

ancient lineage, darkness runs through his veins.

Ethan couldn't help but ask.

_ Why did you marry someone like that? _Vritra was not evil when | met him, at that tthe darkness that was

in him had not awakened, | tried to help him, but when | got pregnant | had to stop, | used all my power to hide

that of my little one, since she was in my womb | had to suppress her power to prevent Vritra from realizing that

she was the bearer of the light.

| planned to help Vritra when April was born, but when she was born my power was exhausted and Vritra had

already been consumed by the darkness, in the end | died without being able to save him.

_ Do you know how he plans to awaken the darkness? Or if he already has? Alessandro asked, returning to the

original topic.

Dantriel answered his question.

_If the darkness had already awakened | assure you that you would know.

_That's right, Vritra has not yet been able to awaken the Darkness and that is because he needs the keys to the

gates of Hades.

_ The keys to Hades? _Darkness was locked away in Hades, or so the elven history books say.

_ If we get those keys, wouldn't that stop the darkness from awakening? _Yes, but nobody knows where they are.

To open the doors of Hades, two keys are needed.

According to ancient books, those keys were hidden in two different places by the elves.

Maya was very excited by what they were saying and suddenly she remembered a story that her father had told

her when she was just a little girl, in that story he mentioned the keys to the gates of Hades, she said.

_Maybe | know where one of them is.

Everyone focused their gaze on Maya, she said.

_Although it may be nothing.

Alessandro told him.

_Speaks.

Maya answered a little nervously as everyone looked at her expectantly.

_When | was a child my father tolda story that mentioned the keys to Hades, well actually he only mentioned

one.

_ Did the story mention where that key was? _|I think so, but | don't remember that story very well, but I can go

hand ask my father.

Cassian told him.

_You'd be doing us a favor if you did that.

After finalizing what they would do, Alessandro looked Sophia directly in the eyes and said.

_If that was all you had to say, leave my wife's body.

Ethan objected.

_No, don't do it Sophia, don't go yet.

Alessandro stood between them and with a murderous look said.

_Even though she is April's mother, that body does not belong to her, find out this, she is already dead, so do not

touch my wife's body again or | will tear your hands off.

Sophia understood Alessandro's attitude perfectly, so she apologized.

_I'm sorry, | didn't mean to cause trouble.

Sophia looked at Ethan and said.

_I just cto say goodbye.

| thank you for everything you've done forand | free you from all ties, Ethan, go hand be happy.

Ethan was going to take her hand, but Sophia pulled it away.

_This is not my body, | can't let you touch it.

Sophia looked at Alessandro and said.

_Actually, she wouldn't want another man to touch her either, since for April you are the only man who can touch

her.

After saying that Sophia looked at Dantriel and said.

_Dantriel.

_Yes princess.

_I know you don't oweloyalty, but | want to ask you one last favor, keep my daughter's existence a secret.

_For now I will do it, but you know that your father will find out about this sooner or later.

_I know, but | would prefer it to be late rather than early, wait until she knows how to defend herself, until the

last seal is broken, | ask no more of you.

Dantriel nodded and responded while giving a small bow, bending his waist slightly.

_l will do so, your majesty.

Sophia stood in front of Alessandro and said to him.

_You better take care of my little girl, if you make her suffer I'll cback and make you regret it.

_l don't plan on making her suffer, | love her and all | want is to make her happy, she won't have to cback, |

assure you.

_I hope so.

Sophia gave Ethan one last smile and before fainting into Alessandro's arms she said to him.

_Goodbye Ethan.

Alessandro headed towards the door with his wife in his arms, before crossing the door Ethan told him.

_I'll be able to talk to her someday.

_I don't think you have any business with my wife, so no, Sir Ethan, she is not the person you are looking for,

don't use her as your substitute.

After Alessandro left, Cassian thought it was best for them to leave as well, so he took Maya's hand and excused

himself.

_We'd better go too, | don't think this is the best tto talk.

Ethan was still affected by losing Sophia, he just wanted to be alone so he didn't hold them back; Dantriel just

responded.

_That's right, | think it's best if we leave it for tomorrow, there are still squestions | want to ask you.

When Maya and Cassian left and they were alone, Dantriel said to him.

_I'm sorry Ethan.

_ Why are you apologizing? _For not helping you look for her back then.
