Kayla's POV

I sighed satisfied as I stretched out my arms, turning in the bed before blinking awake, I hadn't slept so well in days. Every muscle in my body felt relaxed till the unfamiliar scent of lavender and herbs filled my nose.

I sat up with a blanket sliding off my legs. I could tell I was no longer in the palace; the walls were different and it looked like a garden had erupted in the middle of the room.

“Ohh you're awake” A lady stepped in holding a wooden tray and a bowl nesting in the middle. The smell made my belly rumble but I forced myself to focus on the important things.

“Where am I? What happened?”

“You’re in my place, I rarely get visitors but mi casa tu casa” she reassured me, her tone soft. “You collapsed after the council meeting. I felt guilty and brought you here so you could recover.”

The memories rushed back to my mother, the vision, the burning sensation when the seer used the wand or whatever it was she did. I swallowed hard, trying to piece it all together.
