    **Chapter 427 Angry Ken**


    Tess’s lips twisted into a sharp smile, her voice slicing through the air like a de. “You know, I’m a mother too. No matter the circumstances, I would never abandon my child.”


    Ken’s chest heaved with the intensity of his rage, his words bursting forth in a torrent, raw and unrefined. “You can say that because you’ve never faced true terror! You’ve never had someone threaten your family, so you think it’s easy to pass judgment on those who have!”


    Lyra’s expression shifted dramatically, concern etching lines across her face. She quickly bent down, her hands enveloping his trembling ones, grounding him. “Honey, what do you mean by threats? Were your parents threatened? Please, tell me what happened. I want to help you.”


    As Ken’s furious gaze met her gentle demeanor, the fire within him began to wane. It was as if invisible hands were soothing his pain, wrapping around his anger and easing it away.


    His body trembled violently, memories flooding his mind like a relentless tide.


    The nightmare reyed vividly in his thoughts. Just days ago, men had stormed into his home, wreaking havoc as if they were a violent tempest. They smashed furniture and tossed belongings as if they were mere toys. His mother had bravely attempted to stop them, but they shoved her aside with brutal force, sending her crashing to the floor with a pained cry.


    The leader of the intruders remained shrouded in shadows, his voice a low growl that sent chills down Ken’s spine. “Bring Nichs out here!”


    On that fateful day, his father was supposed to be at the mill, working hard as usual. But an urgent call from his mother had summoned him home, her voiceced with panic, warning him of the chaos that awaited.


    Upon arriving, he had steeled himself for a confrontation, but the sight of those men drained him of all fury, leaving only a chilling dread in its ce.


    “Have you made your decision?”


    Thergest man stepped forward, his bulk overshadowing Ken’s fatherpletely, like a dark cloud eclipsing the sun.


    A cold wave of fear coiled tightly around Ken’s chest.


    “Yes! I’ll do it! I’ll help!”


    His father’s voice cracked under the immense pressure, the weight of desperation evident in every syble.


    The man who had once stood tall was now reduced to something fragile and broken.


    “Do as you’re told. And your wife and child areing too.”


    With a heavy thud, Ken’s father copsed to his knees, his voice trembling with urgency.


    “Please, let my boy stay. He’s still in school. Don’t take him!”


    Ken’s mother clung to him fiercely, her arms wrapped tightly around his shoulders, her eyes aze with fear. In a moment of desperation, she produced a pair of scissors from nowhere, pressing the de against her own neck, daring the men to take another step.


    For a heartbeat, the intruders hesitated. The leader pulled out a phone, making a call that felt like a death knell.


    Lyra’s voice broke through his memories, tender yet insistent.


    “Do you remember what they called the person on the line?”


    Ken clenched his teeth so tightly that pain shot through his jaw.


    “Mr. Ember.”


    The name burned into his memory, a constant reminder of the monster who had shattered his family.


    The recollection left him shivering, a cold sweat breaking out across his skin.


    Tess and Lyra exchanged a nce, their eyes heavy with understanding.


    Tess leaned in closer, her gaze unwavering.


    “We can help you find them. But you need to trust us ande with us. Will you?”


    Ken’s brows furrowed deeply. He took a step back, suspicion igniting like a wildfire within him.


    “You knew all along. You came here just to find me.”


    A faint smile graced Lyra’s lips, a hint of surprise flickering in her eyes at his quick deduction.


    “You’re right. We’re going after the ones who took your parents. But to confront them, we need proof.”


    Tess nodded, her resolve unshakeable.


    Ken’s gaze dropped, hisshes casting long shadows across his pale cheeks. The silence stretched on, thick and suffocating, leaving both women to wonder if he would refuse their offer.


    Then, with a sudden surge of determination, his head lifted, and a fierce light ignited in his eyes.


    They arranged for him to take a leave from school. By the time Tess and Lyra guided him back to the hotel, the sky was a canvas of deepening dusk, the day slipping away.


    As Tess ascended to the second floor, she halted abruptly. A small figure crouched outside her door, so lonely and deste that it pierced her heart like an arrow.


    L’s head snapped up at the sound of her footsteps. His tired eyes sparked with sudden recognition and joy upon seeing her.


    He scrambled to his feet, rushing toward her, but the blood rushed to his head from crouching too long, causing him to falter and nearly stumble.


    Tess caught him just in time, the weight of her forgotten promise crashing down upon her. She had vowed to take him to his grandmother’s grave, to visit the ruins. Yet, she had pushed that promise aside, consumed by her own quest.


    She had found what she came for, and she could leave Krigan the very next day. But she hadn’t fulfilled her promise to him, and guilt gnawed at her insides.


    “Who is that?”


    L’s gaze shifted to Ken, curiosity mingling with something sharper, a hint of protectiveness.


    “He’sing with us tomorrow. We’re leaving for Aetheris.”


    L’s eyes narrowed, seizing upon the word with an intensity that surprised Tess. “You’re leaving tomorrow? But you promised me! What’s Aetheris? I’ming too!”


    His voice rang out with protest, a plea for inclusion.


    Tess pressed her fingers to her temple, exhaling a sigh of resignation. “Fine. Tomorrow morning, I’ll take you there. In the afternoon, we’ll leave for Aetheris.”


    L’s shoulders rxed, but only slightly, the tension still evident in his stance. “And Aetheris? I’m going with you.”


    Tess’s brows knitted together, her voice sharpening with concern.


    “Why would youe?”


    L held her gaze steadily, unflinching, his resolve unwavering. He tilted his head slightly, like a stubborn stray animal that refused to back down.


    “Because I want to stay with you.”


    The words spilled from his lips, bold and unguarded, almost reckless.


    Tess let out a breathlessugh, a mixture of frustration and amusement bubbling up inside her. If she had known he would cling to her like this, she might have thought twice before engaging him on that first day.


    Her thoughts must have yed across her face, for his expression shifted. His eyes fell, the spark of determination dimming. His head bowed low, shoulders sagging as if he were a stray pup left out in the rain, alone and abandoned.Conclusion
