And what of their family?


Malicedom wasn't spared from the mess, but certainly the family involved in it and that is held responsible for it is not being left out of the tensions.
The parents of the dead bullies claimed so hard that Sigurd would be executed regardless of the fact it was something he couldn't control and when they only received denial from the authorities, they even claimed his parents to be executed or at least publicly humiliated. Denied too of course, but that only thanks to the fact they count as Riddle family.

Despite that, they were on every newspapers, names, surnames, the story of the two husbands publicly revealed to the whole world on a shaming tone, Carlie pictured as a low woman, a whore and definitely someone beyond unfitting to raise children. She was the main person in target, due to the fact it's known she is a Shapeshifter and since she worked in Malicedom. It humiliated her beyond measure to the point she became ashamed to even go out of home and all this right when Tristan is missing. She can't describe her feelings at the moment and she feels disappointed beyond imagination to both Sigurd and Frerin for keeping such a thing from her.
She had everything she dreamed of, at some point, actually even more than that. A seemingly perfect family, two loving husbands, three beautiful sons and total balance and peace. But she realized it was only an illusion and in barely a few days, everything turned into ashes. And it not even the worst part.

Of course, putting an almost whole family of "monsters" on the spotlight of the whole world is the worst possible thing ever. Not really due to racism and mistreatments from Auriold, but rather, because of Western Hunters. They are always on the hunt, always searching for new preys, they all became Hunters out of lust for revenge against the monsters and they take it as their life mission to rid the world of them all, regardless of the law and alliances. Unlike the Northern Hunters, they aren't an organization, they aren't controlled, they have no rules, they are just singular individual who follow their own rules. Conny and Malcolm were just like them, before they became Demigods and now they are out, but still in touch with the most reasonable of them all, Bobby.
Weeks earlier, Bobby warned Malcolm that some of the cruelest Hunters among them, planned to capture Tristan, in order to learn on his skin, how to defeat and kill Knights of Zivhur. And Malcolm warned Carlie on the matter, though she thought that they would never dare to cause troubles in the North.
She realized how wrong she was, only the same evening as Sigurd's mess at the school. She was at home with the two sons and Jackil, when suddenly, a noise of breaking glass could be heard coming from Frerin's room. She rushed there, bursting inside the room just as Frerin was peeking outside the window what or who threw the rock that broke it. She was just in time to pull him away as a silver dart was shot from a crossbow, piercing her to the side but clearly aimed at Frerin to kill him.
Thanks to the treatment and symbol Jeremi gave to her, she is much less vulnerable to silver than Frerin would be, so the wound despite being horribly painful, won't cause her any worrying damage.
After that, Jackil went immediately out to catch the Hunter, Gordon, and after defeating him, delivered him to the Royal Guards, sueing him for attempted murdering of their son.

Despite the tragedy was avoided, it really worsened things big time to Carlie and made her realize that they are in serious danger. It also terrified her, thinking that it's possible that the Hunter seriously took Tristan and maybe managed to kill him. The doubt started to kill her.

She cried floods, literally, but the next morning, she woke up extremely determined:
1 Put the boys to safety;
2 Find out what happened to Tristan;
3 Erase Hunters from the world if they killed him.
That morning, she looks totally angry and cold, like she was never seen before. She is angry to Frerin almost even more than she is to Sigurd, since she knows Frerin knew and kept the information from them.
Anyhow, she waits in the dining room to be joined by the rest of the family, intending to give orders to each. -Let's say Thorin is there too?-

Crow
Crow Frerin. It terrifies him beyond measure, the last person he would want to be close to. If he could pick, he'd pick a cage rather than Edward, though he dares not to say a word, he even makes sure to breathe in a way that can't be heard. (XD)

She knows the punishment is cruel, but also knows that not even the dumbest or craziest of the hunters would dare to approach Edward or his protected. It'd cost much more pain than getting killed, especially if Sao is around to team up. <3
«Nothing of what happened is ever going to repeat, things are going to change for good and forever. Forget your lives of spoiled prices.» She approaches the window and looks through it.

Crow It is exactly what she wants, to separate them. She thinks it is the source of the problem, that when Sigurd will not have a free in he will be forced to tell everything to Thorin then. When Tristan will be back she will want him separated from the other two as well, until she will think it has been enough to learn their lesson.
~He did.~ In fact, it is very rare that Edward denies something.

Crow ~Yes, that was our mistake. If they can not trust us, they best learn to trust the certainty and harshness of our punishments now on.~

Frerin. He bows tears dropping from his eyes all the time and runs back to his room, closing himself inside and crying on the bed.

Jackil. ~I will go to check if the Lieutenant approved my request to see the portals register.~ Said that, he sighs and indeed heads to the headquarter.

Crow The same is for her, in fact she was totally depressive and crying every minute since that happen, until she decided she had to rise and work to mend the situation. She believes the best card to play right now, is the other Alphas and earn protection for her family from them.
~It could not have gone worse and it could not have happened in a worse moment.~
