"I take full responsibility for that, but don't expect me to be sorry about it," she says casually. "I had to protect my sister, and our legacy. My father made many enemies, as did my mother, but I was never expecting an Al Koyet to be sent. I appreciate the part you played in keeping it away from Roary."
Angela stands up straight, her hands resting on the edge of the table. "Make no mistake, though, Caleb, you aren't a part of the plan. My only concern is the endurance of our line, of the D'Aubigne legacy. Therese is key to that, whether she be dark or holy. So whatever your intentions are for my sister, know that you're going to have the fury of hell on your head if any harm comes to her. We are one of very, very few lasting families of a magical line, and several times already have attempts been made to snuff us out. If your intentions are good, then I wholeheartedly welcome you as part of the family."
Her eyes grow dark, that same darkness that is always so apparent in Corrine's own eyes when she becomes angry. "But if you aren't, know that Louis and I both have dark contacts, and each of my siblings is ready to rally around Therese at a moment's notice, as well as several dozen others. You would lose ten times over."
