When Petals Meet The Blade (Priscilla and Waldo) novel Chapter 268

Chapter 268

Priscilla stammered, her face draining of color. “No, I… I didn’t… There’s nothing wrong with my body, I didn’t…”

Yuna checked on her body. In an instant, her face darkened with grim realization.

She said, “This castration is so barbaric! You’re worthless now!”

Yuna stood up, her gaze dropping to Priscilla’s now bloodless face, its pallor only making the dark, grimy complexion appear even more pronounced. Irritation flickered across her features.

“Sister…” Tears welled up in Priscilla’s eyes.

“Don’t call me sister anymore,” Yuna spat. “In your filthy state, you’re no longer worthy of the Mcbride name.”

The so–called castration was very brutal. First, a woman’s womb would be destroyed, leaving her barren for life. Then, her womanhood would be sealed completely, stripping her not only of the ability to bear children but even the right to be with men.

Yuna sneered at Priscilla, “Still crawling through life in this state? Where’s that famous McBride pride of yours?”

Priscilla’s heart lurched as she stared wide–eyed at Yuna in disbelief. “But… I’m your sister! How could you want me dead?”

“Back in Sandspire, did you ever, even for a single day, treat me as your sister?”

“Sister, I… I can still recover,” she pleaded, her voice trembling. “I’ve… I’ve asked around. As long as… as long as we can find a skilled physician to… to undo the procedure, I can still be a woman again. The only thing is… I just won’t be able to have children.”

Priscilla thought desperately, ‘I still have a chance.

“I must see Waldo. He won’t abandon me. Once I’m better, he’ll still cherish me, just like before!‘

“Find a renowned physician to reverse the procedure?” Yuna looked at her with utter disdain. “Have you no shame? After your womanhood has been examined by countless physicians, do you honestly think Waldo would still want you?“.

Reversing the sealing was an excruciatingly meticulous process, every single step demanded invasive, intimate work.

Yuna sneered, “What man in this world would ever lay a finger on a woman like you? Most would recoil at even a single glance, just the sight of you is filthy to them!”

“Waldo isn’t that kind of person! Sister, he swore… he said he’d love only me his whole life, he…”

Yuna cut her off sharply. “I’m not here for your nonsense.”

Yuna knew with cold certainty that Priscilla would be of no further use to her.

Yuna didn’t even deign to waste her breath on her.

She asked, “I know Father entrusted you with something on his deathbed. Where is it now?”

Priscilla stared at her in disbelief. “What… thing?” She never expected her to bring this up now. Shaking her head weakly, she stammered, “There’s… nothing…”

“Do you still think you have a chance, Priscilla? I won’t waste my breath on you, with your ruined body, His Highness would never look at you again.”

“Impossible!” Priscilla cried. “If he didn’t still care about me, why would he send Hughie to bring me back?”

Yuna scoffed, “That’s just because he doesn’t want others to call him heartless! Do you actually think he cares about you?” Seeing Priscilla’s tears immediately roll down, Yuna couldn’t help but sigh.
