Chapter 15: Disbelief

I remained in place even after Damon walked away, and my mind circled back to the moment we shared with the Queen. It was clear that he didn’t like her, but the Queen had been unfazed, like she was used to such coldness from him. I didn’t know what to make of that, but even without him giving me that warning, I’d be the last person to be stupid enough to let anyone sink their claw into me.
I let out a long breath before glancing around and I was relieved to realize that I recognized where I was standing in, hence I’d have had to start asking for help which would have been a little mortifying.

I rubbed my hands together and offered them a grin. "Alright then. Let’s go."
I turned back around and began to walk when one of them politely cleared their throat. "My lady, the north wing is in this direction." The voice spoke and I hummed.
"I’m well aware, however, I’d like to take a walk. Instead of returning bsck to my room
