Five days had passed since she sent Percival to persuade Damien to give Danika her punishment.
Five whole nights yet he hadn't returned. Even Nandi whom she always sent to his chambers with her message was always shunned and not granted entry.
It was as if he was avoiding her haven failed in the mission she sent him on. Because obvious, no result had come out of it as Danika was still wherever Damien kept her.
Away from her reach, away from where she'd know.
She'd searched the buildings in the pack using a map Percival had given her, yet found nothing.
Even the guards who came to the kitchens to secretly take food on Damien's orders, trailing them was still futile and impossible to find where they went as they'd suddenly disappear as if figuring out they were being followed.
But she'd done something every smart woman would do since then. She'd stopped the foods being given to the soldiers.
