Chapter 68 – A Sense of Calm
“Where is my prisoner Jariah?” The words snapped from Baden’s mouth as if from a bear trap. Misty shrinking back, she felt actual fear from Baden. Fear controlling her thoughts, she thought maybe it was a mistake taking Amelia from the cells under her fathers direction. Like what was the council going to do with her anyway, she was of no use to them. She had lost her mind over Baden, she could not be used or controlled. Remembering the words again from Amelia’s lips, ‘she stole him from me.’ She realized in an instant that she had been on the very same path of self destruction over Baden that Amelia had been. You could not force or will someone to love you, no matter how much you wanted them. Slowly moving down the hallway Misty wanted to slip away, to not be included in this discussion.
