Always Been Yours

Since they were utterly oblivious to Remus’ thoughts, they started pleading with him the moment they saw him.

"Uncle Remus, I know that our fathers went overboard with what they did, but they're getting on in years, and they wouldn’t be able to live in such harsh conditions like a prison cell."

"Yes, Dad only did something so ridiculous out of a moment's folly. Please forgive him."

"Now that Grandpa and Grandma are no longer around, they're the only blood relative you have left."

Remus almost choked in anger when he heard their shameless pleas because they sounded like nothing but excuses. Finally, he glared at the three middle-aged men and scoffed derisively, "Even without your fathers, I still have other relatives and would rather not have brothers like them. Just because they're old and foolish doesn't give them the right to commit such crimes. So, they’ve only just realized that they couldn’t handle prison, huh? So, why did they still take the risk and do those awful things? I thought that you were here to grovel and apologize, but it looks like I've set my bar far too high for the likes of you! Frankly, I really wonder how you could bring yourselves to ask me for their freedom. What? Do you think that they don't have to pay for their crimes after they caused the death of my grandson simply because they're old and my brothers? They would like to get out, eh? Don't even think about it! Hell would freeze over before I would ever agree to such a ridiculous notion!"

Remus felt his blood boil as he lashed out at them mercilessly. His fury was so evident that the men prostrating themselves before him didn’t even dare raise their heads. Nonetheless, although they looked cowed, their hearts were filled with hate for Remus. Unfortunately, they had no choice but to weather through his anger as they were here to plead with him.

Meanwhile, Ian was worried that Remus' heart couldn't take it when he saw Remus becoming so agitated. Thus, he hurriedly tried to pacify him, advising, "Sir, your health! You should take care of yourself!"

Remus inhaled deeply before finally giving out the order with a bellow, "Toss these idiots out!"
