Mira POV
The cold air hit my skin as I stepped out of the dungeons, my breath coming in short, shaky exhales.
My heart was still pounding from what I had just heard. The maid’s voice echoed in my head, each word seared into my mind like a curse.
“Serena’s escape was just the beginning. You have no idea what’s coming. Great doom will befall all those who stood against her.”
Those were the same words Serena had spoken before her walk of shame.
I swallowed hard, forcing myself to focus. Whatever they were planning, it wasn’t just an empty threat. I needed to figure out what was coming before it was too late.
The castle hallways were quiet, but the heavy feeling in the air remained. I passed by a few guards, their gazes shifting toward me momentarily before looking away.
