*Zara*
It felt like things just kept coming up, and my situation was growing worse and worse. Still, I tried to stay hopeful because this could reveal what was blocking our mate bond.
I hoped it did.
On the way to the palace with a bunch of Drogomor guards, I expressed my concern to Noah.
“This is adding to the list of everything wrong lately.”
“I understand. I am happy to hear that given the markings are seen only in the moon, they’re likely not malicious.”
“I guess. But I can’t get out of my head the implication that I need to be protected from… something.”
“Those marks won’t be the only thing protecting you, Zara.”
I smiled at Noah, overjoyed with how determined he sounded. Just like with the lily situation, he was there for me. It touched my heart so much.
After a relatively long drive with thankfully no troubles on the road, we arrived at the capital. The city was a huge bustle, with people hurriedly going about their business this way and that.
