Chapter 53: A Welcome Return

We get into the carriage and set off for the Kingdom of the Moon capital where the slave market is located.

Curiously, all the guards, footmen, and coachman seem to be in the same spirits as the day before. They seem completely oblivious to our activities last night. I wonder if it was a spell or if they are in cahoots with the Luna. Not that I would ask her to confirm, nor trust that she would be honest.

“Theia?” I whisper in my mind, my exterior cool and placid.

I have not heard from her since I fell asleep when she told me not to.

“You were right, I was wrong.” I silently confess. “I’m sorry.” I want to cry with disappointment in myself. I should’ve never let my guard down near my mother. Her beauty and quiet moves hide the hideous realities of her truth. I have now seen even further behind the porcelain mask she wears, yet I know I have not yet seen her completely. I’m sure there are even more terrifying truths that lie behind her perfectly curated exterior.

I feel a growl
