Suddenly, they heard Lillian\'s weak voice from inside the carriage, "Edwin! Edwin! Are you out there?"

Lillian had been unconscious for quite a long time and she also lost a lot of blood in the fight. Though her open wounds were healed, her blood level was still low. She looked around the carriage and for a good minute, she couldn\'t figure out if everything that happened earlier was just her dream or everything was real.

"Edwin was traveling with me, wasn\'t he?" she tried to figure out what was real and what wasn\'t. "Everything felt so real… then why am I back inside the carriage?" she held her head and sat up on the seat.

She couldn\'t feel the carriage moving. She turned her head to look out of the window but the window, as well as the door, were tightly shut.

Lillian staggeringly got up from the seat and tried to reach the door of the carriage. But every time her hand would get near the door handle, the carriage would emit an orange glow. A transparent wall would appear in front of the walls of the carriage and would prevent her from getting out of the carriage.

Finally, reality set in. She figured why she was still in the carriage. It was not just a carriage but a trap. She pushed her dirty hair away from her face and then tried to use her magic to break free.

However, to her utmost horror, her magic wasn\'t working. Cold sweats began to trickle down her spine and she felt lightheaded again. Her knees went weak and she had to take support of the seat to hold her ground.

She grabbed her hair and whispered, "What have they done to me? No, no, no! This can\'t be happening to me! They cannot hold me in by some stupid magic circle. No… I have to get out of here."

She panicked all of a sudden and started to madly bang on the transparent wall. She desperately shouted for help from her son, "Edwin! Can you hear me? Edwin! Get me out of here!"

She could hear some commotion outside her carriage but she didn\'t know if her son could hear her. And then she got scared again, "What if they did something to Edwin to get back at me?"

She wiped the sweat from her forehead and gulped to soften her dry throat. She could hear people talking outside. She listened to them for a bit. They were talking about transporting her back to the Palace and putting her in some kind of an unbreakable prison.

She also heard her son\'s voice so she desperately banged on the transparent wall again and tried playing victim, "Edwin, I know you are out there. Will you help me out? Those vile witches have trapped me in here. Rally all the guards and surround those witches. And have them to get me out of here."

Outside, all of the guards were already preparing to head back to Wyverndale. Theodore was teleporting the witches back to their home, two at a time so that they could pay their final respects to their dead sister first.

They had to be teleported to the Palace again so that they could cast a barrier in the place where Lillian was to be kept for the rest of her life.

Adeline, Edwin, and Raphael had decided to travel back to Wyverndale in Edwin\'s carriage to prevent anything unforeseen to happen on the route. They were waiting for the coachman to bring the carriage to them.

And when Edwin heard his mother, still trying to manipulate him into doing her bidding, he almost snapped at her.

Edwin took a deep breath in and glanced at the High Priestess who also looked furious after hearing Lillian. And he asked for forgiveness, "I would like to apologize to you on my mother\'s behalf."

"I am sorry for all the innocent lives that my mother took. And for all the problems that she caused to all of you. And I am really ashamed that I even blindly followed her footsteps." He lowered his head out of shame and begged politely, "If you can, then please forgive me."

Tabitha calmed down after hearing his sincere apology. "You have already proved that you are willing to change for the better by helping us in today\'s mission. Keep on walking on this new path that you are taking. God will forgive-"

"Did you just say that you are ashamed of me, Edwin? And are you apologizing to that self-proclaimed know-all?" The sincere chat between Edwin and Tabitha was cut short by the shrilling sound of Lillian.

Edwin didn\'t even turn his head towards the carriage. He simply ignored her.

However, Lillian kept on shouting at him even when she didn\'t know if he was even listening to her. "Answer me, Edwin! Did you just say that you are ashamed of me? Wait! Did you side with those witches and with that love child to conspire against me?"

Edwin felt even more embarrassed by his mother as she kept on screaming as if she was an innocent person and as if she had been wronged by the others.

He sighed and tried to make her quiet, "Please mother! You have already done enough. Stop with all the ruckus. Don\'t embarrass yourself and don\'t embarrass me."

After hearing her son admit that he was indeed embarrassed by her, Lillian finally lost the final strand of saneness that she still had.

"Embarrass… now I embarrass my own son! I revived him from the dead just to see this day! He sided with my enemies and worked to trap me…" she softly chuckled and whispered to herself.

It all finally made sense to her. How he knew about the vampires even when she knew that she wasn\'t the one to tell him. How he kept on insisting that he take the lead of the discussion about the war with the Vampire King. How he didn\'t want his wife, daughter, and brother to travel along with them today. 

Everything was finally crystal-clear to her.

She was a little suspicious of Edwin really working for Adeline when Alan told her that Edwin hadn\'t informed him about the trip to Frostford. That was the reason why she drew that magic circle as a precaution for the trip.

However, she didn\'t suspect him enough as he was her beloved son. She gave him the benefit of doubt. But in the end, she was betrayed by her own blood.

"I had been raising a serpent for all this time… I thought that he was my salvation, but he became the very reason for my damnation." She laughed at the irony of her situation.

She had literally brought him back from the dead and loved him and raised him, only to be betrayed by him.

She cackled as though she had lost her mind. She slammed her whole body against the transparent barrier in an attempt to break it with her brute force. She kept on attacking the barrier even when she was just hurting herself.

And she screamed and cursed at her own son furiously, "I was a fool to have resurrected you from the dead. I should have just buried you! No, I am going to bury you alive… along with your wife and daughter.. I will never let you have a peaceful life ever. I will haunt you even if I die! I am going to kill you all…"
