Kali's POV
Morning came slow, and I hated every bit of it. I'd never dreaded a sunrise like I was right now, if you could even call it that. I'd prayed to the moon goddess, to not let the day come so quickly.
I wouldn't say I was scared, I just wasn't ready to face what the day was going to bring. Yes, the main purpose of coming out here was to survive, but how was I supposed to do that, when my life was in danger? Literally.
Only a fool would chalk up what had happened last night as a mere coincidence. The council had sent someone to kill me. To murder me and bri g back proof. I hated the fact that this was even an option, but the council didn't let me back into the trial because Diego had fought for me. The only reason they did that, was to find a way to kill me off.
Great. Just
