JASMINE’S TRUE PAST (2)

Who was your mother?" Xaden asked.

"She was a slave." Jasmine said. "I never met her. She died right after she gave birth to me. I heard that Luna Maria heard about the fact that Bale got her pregnant and was enraged. When Bale was away on some clan wars, she used the opportunity to lock my mother up in a cell. She fell into hard labor from her suffering and then she gave birth to me. She died right after. When Bale came back and learned of all that had happened, he turned his blame on me instead of Luna Maria who had killed my mother. He hated me because I was the one who killed her after the birth. So he always turned a blind eye to me and anything that had to deal with me. He left me at the mercy of Luna Maria."

Xaden assessed the situation at hand before speaking up. "So you tell me that he was aware of all that was happening to you and he did nothing to stop them?"
