Chapter 1: Her Missing Son
Clouds of dust formed below the wheels of a carriage as it raced through Carmarthen town. Thankfully, the streets were empty. Even if they weren’t, the noble lady who appeared to be in her mid-forties would not have ordered the Coachman to slow down, despite the risk to the townspeople.
The noble lady fists clenched in anger, silently gritting her teeth when the thoughts of her son came in mind.

She stormed through the gates and into the mansion, startling and ignoring the servants that greeted her as she walked by. She made her way through the stairs, grasping the knife by the hilt as she opened the door and walked in.
