She snorted. "They are my children, no matter what I do, no one can get involved."

Ta.s.sio slowly arrived in front of her and coldly looked at the two people. "The moment children had powers, you are not only one who has involvement with them. The whole country has. The King gave orders to protect power children. I have no idea what kind if brainwas.h.i.+ng method he used, but children are from now on under the protection of the country. Will you choose to follow them or not, it's your choice. But, Caledon Valley has strong laws, so they will be protected there. And you will be financially supported as long they attend the school."

Trough her eyes pa.s.sed expression of greed so Ta.s.sio stepped back. He felt disgusted. At first, he thought that at least the mother would care more about her own children but this woman...

Lais shook her head. Even demons care more about their offsprings. They all talk about how vicious demons are, but humans are apparently not better. In olden times the demons that were too weak were food for lower beings, but since humans arrived, demons changed quite a lot.

Even elders in far regions changed their mind as there is a possibility that one of the demon children might have powers. Demons changed for better but humans heart became extremely vicious. Even tho the demons in early days gave up on weak offspring, they still never did any vicious actions against them as humans do.

The disgust on everyone's faces was ignored by the woman. She still tried to get that man free from guards hands while her children stood there in disappointment. One of the boys started crying and his sister patted his head while the other boy stood there with wooden face and hands balled in fists.

Isaa went to him and stroked his fist and as he opened hand she smiled at him. "Don't forget that you have a brother and sister. If those people don't want to be your parents, there are still them. I and brother had no parents before as we were abandoned as well, but we worked hard and lived comfortably. Now we have amazing adoptive parents, but even without them we would be able to live good."

He looked at her and then at his brother and sister and nodded. "You are right I am lucky to at least have them. Thank you. By the way, what are your names?"

"I am Isaa and my brother is Kendra. And yours?"

"I'm Tyrone, sisters name is Anne and my brother's name is Simon." He went to his brother and with the corner of his s.h.i.+rt cleaned his face. Even tho they were born at the same time, he always acted as he was oldest.

Anne turned to Isaa and smiled. "Thank you for your words. If we live in school like other children we still hope to be together. Somehow we feel safer like that. And we still hope our mother will be financially supported, she is after all still our mother. " She sighed while she looked at her mothers back.

Isaa nodded. "Ask headmaster about close rooms. And about your mothers support, he probably will accept that but if they make anything against laws in Caledon Valley...

The children nodded simultaneously. Everyone already heard about strong laws there and about many people being expelled. They hoped that their mother won't get in trouble but looking at her acting. They sighed.

Chief looked at solemn expressions on children's faces and shook his head. " We will let him go after he tells us what he does against your children."

"Does? Oh you mean he can control them. I did that. I bound them to him with an old spell from one man. Like that they will work harder and not play around." She looked at her children with wrinkled eyebrows. "You already whined about hard work? So what? It's not like you are only children in the world that helps in the household."

She stepped forward threatening. Simon his behind his sister that defiantly stood there and stared at her mother while Tyrone stepped forward. " Mother, now, there will be no more work. You can support yourself with money you get from the country."

She looked at girl viciously and turned her cold stare at him. "Do not think you can escape your responsibility. Later on, you still need to send us food as well. Our benefactor can't live normally and being hungry."She looked one more time at stubborn Anne and turned around again to try to help that man.

But Chief had it enough. He nodded to his guards and they arrested her as well and under a rain of disgusting and dirty cusses that came out her mouth, they took them away.

The children felt ashamed and bowed their head as red crossed their cheeks and ears.

Ta.s.sio didn't want them to be too exhausted so he sent them to shades where Isaa and Kendra stood.

Kendra acted as nothing happened and let them sit down on already prepared table were a mult.i.tude of common fruits and food stood. But for these children the never had enough to eat, this was a sumptuous meal. They started eating as they had no idea how long they would be again without food. Tyrone grateful bowed towards Kendra and started eating as well.

Isaa looked at them and remembered Cian, what is he doing now?
