95
Saxon
The night passed slowly once they brought me here. Sleep was impossible. Now, with the daylight, I concentrate on the crack in the ceiling. I imagine sealing it up and making it disappear. Anything to keep my mind occupied. The four walls crowd me, yet the room is spacious and bare. I walk around and around in circles, trying to guess the Governess’s next move. She must have been behind my arrest. The Agent who stopped me might have been the Primo Dictor’s personal Agent, but obviously his allegiance doesn’t lie with the Governor.
The Governor knew Kerina was hiding, but is he on her side? Or did his wife coerce him into her way of thinking? If they went after me, then Kerina must have left undetected. The thought gives me some comfort.
‘Damn it!’ I slam my hand on the ground.
