Wings of Broken Time by Alina Das 6 Summary
Larissa informs the villagers that she has decided to return to the Judson family and accept the arranged marriage, intending to teach them a lesson. Despite their confusion, the villagers respect her choice and offer their support, promising to help if she faces trouble. Larissa then prepares to leave with Neville and Sapphira, who are surprised by her strength when she carries a heavy sack with ease.
During the car ride, Sapphira and Neville reveal to Larissa that they were unaware of the full circumstances surrounding her return. They explain that two weeks prior, Larissa’s parents discovered that Honora, the girl they raised, was not their biological daughter, and that Larissa was the real daughter living in the village. They were sent to bring Larissa back, but Larissa suspects her parents’ true intention is to have her marry a disabled man in Honora’s place, rather than out of genuine affection.
Sapphira shares details about the Judson family, confirming what Larissa had learned from Nightveil. The family is led by Kiernan Judson and includes Neville and Sapphira, who are childless, and Paxton, Larissa’s biological father, who has three children including Honora—the girl Larissa was swapped with. The family is wealthy and influential, with members involved in a media company and other pursuits.
After a long drive, they arrive at the grand Judson estate, which dwarfs Larissa’s village in size and luxury. Inside, Larissa meets her biological family for the first time in years: her parents, her brother, and Honora. Their expressions reveal disdain and discomfort upon seeing her, but Larissa remains unfazed, amused by the complex dynamics within her family.
Chapter 6
“The Judson family, you say? They aren’t that big of a deal in Regal City. Who do they think they are? Larissa, you don’t have to go back to them.”
Larissa raised a hand to quiet the crowd. “Please calm down. I’ve decided to go back and accept the marriage. I’m going back to teach them a lesson. I just wanted to let you all know and ask you to please look after the new herbs in my garden.”
Though they didn’t understand, the villagers respected her decision.
“Alright then. If anyone at the Judson estate gives you any trouble, you call me. I’ll bring people over and tear their house down.”
“That’s right. We’ll always be here for you.”
Larissa waved. “Thank you, everyone. That’s all. You can go back to what you were doing.”
With that, she turned to the waiting Neville and Sapphira with a playful smile. “Uncle, Aunt, we can go
now.”
Still stunned, Neville and Sapphira snapped back to reality at her voice.
“Oh… right.”
“Miss, let me take that for you,” the driver said, stepping forward to take the burlap sack.
“Be careful, it’s heavy,” Larissa warned.
The driver thought to himself, “how heavy could a sack a young girl carried so easily be?”
But when he took it, the weight nearly made him drop it on his foot.
Larissa blinked. “Can you manage? Don’t break anything inside.”
“No problem, Miss.” The driver gave an awkward smile, gritting his teeth as he heaved the sack into the trunk. By the time he was back in the driver’s seat, he was sweating. He couldn’t figure out how the slender young woman could be so strong.
In the car, Sapphira and Neville exchanged several worried glances before Sapphira finally worked up the courage to ask, “Larissa, what was all that you told the villagers about marrying a disabled man in place of an adopted daughter? What’s going on?”
“You didn’t know?” Larissa asked, her tone skeptical.
Sapphira shook her head. “Neville and I had no idea. We only heard from your parents about two weeks ago that Honora wasn’t their biological child. They launched an investigation and found out yesterday that their real daughter was in your village. They asked us to come and bring you home today.”
Neville nodded in agreement with his wife.
Larissa gave a wry smile. “Then why do you think they didn’t come themselves?”
The question left Sapphira speechless.

Chapter 6
It was true. What kind of parents would send relatives to pick up a daughter they hadn’t seen in twenty years? But the truth would only hurt the girl, so she remained silent.
“Even if
you don’t say it, I can guess,” Larissa said, her tone light but her eyes holding a wisdom beyond her years. “They don’t want me. They’re only bringing me back so I can marry a disabled man in place of the daughter they adore.”
“Larissa, how did you find out about the marriage?” Neville asked.
“That’s a secret,” she replied with a smile.
Along the way, Sapphira told her about the Judson family, and the information matched what Nightveil had found. The family was still run by the patriarch, Kiernan Judson. Kiernan had two sons and one daughter. The eldest son was Neville, sitting beside her, with his wife, Sapphira. They were childless. The second son, Paxton, was her biological father, married to Vivica. They had two sons and one daughter. The eldest, Finley, managed the family’s entertainment company, Starlight Media. The second, Leopold, was a famous singer signed to the same company. Finally, there was their youngest, Honora, who was exceptionally accomplished, having already graduated from university at twenty. She was supposed to marry Haskell Palmer before heading abroad for further studies. And this Honora was the girl she had been swapped with. The third child, their aunt Josette, had married into another prominent family and rarely visited outside of holidays.
After a six–hour drive from the village to Regal City, night had fallen.
“Sir, Madam, Miss, we’ve arrived,” the driver announced.
Larissa looked out the window at a sprawling estate with several villas scattered across the grounds, as grand as a presidential palace. A true Regal City dynasty. The Judson estate was nearly the size of her entire village.
She got out of the car and followed Neville and Sapphira inside. The butler, Jett, was waiting at the door and greeted them respectfully.
“Sir, Madam, welcome back.” His eyes fell on Larissa, and he gave her a polite nod. “This must be the young miss.”
“Yes,” Sapphira said, turning to Larissa with a warm smile. “Larissa, let’s go in and meet your parents and your brother.”
Larissa remained silent, following them through the wide courtyard and into the grand foyer. Standing at the entrance, her eyes swept over the four people sitting on the sofa in the living room.
First, a middle–aged couple dressed in luxurious clothes, exuding an air of nobility. Next to them was a handsome young man with a rebellious streak. And finally, a beautiful young woman about her own age, her eyes red and puffy, looking utterly pitiful.
None of them looked happy, they all seemed preoccupied. When their eyes met hers, Larissa didn’t miss the flicker of distaste that crossed their faces.
She smirked. Her family was certainly interesting.
