Chapter 48: To Many Loose Ends

Clarissa's P.O.V.

"The child Maria Carmen was a human/fae hybrid, but she was murdered as a child, or so said the queen who disappeared years after that."

Alyssa's words rang in my ears, and I wasn't sure how to take what she was saying. Perhaps it was a different Maria Carmen. There was no way that any of that was true. "Maybe it's a different Maria Carmen."

"Perhaps, but that is way too weird for words. Something that definitely needs to be checked into eventually. If you are the child of Maria Carmen, there is a whole lot more that you need to be aware of." Alyssa looked at me with concern, and I was starting to wonder if my life was some ironic sitcom movie.

"Like what?" I groaned internally.

"Uh, like how the Fae world never approved of the hybrid notion being inflicted into their pure bloodline. That was why other Fae colonies tried to send hired assassins to murder Maria."
