Selene walked through the palace gates with a heavy heart, her steps were slow, her mind was filled with countless thoughts. The sunlight hit the white stone walls, making them glow, but nothing inside her felt bright. She was exhausted emotionally, mentally, even spiritually. Following Witch Mother had been overwhelming enough, yet the hardest part still waited for her inside these walls.
Vaelen.
Every step toward her room made her stomach twist. Should she talk to him now? Should she wait? Should she pretend nothing happened and figure things out later?
But no… that wasn't possible.
How was she supposed to explain everything when she herself didn't understand half of it?
How could she tell Vaelen that she was Serena and Selene at the same time?
That she never died?
That the women who claimed to be her mother lied about everything?
That she might be his sister… or might not… depending on which part of the twisted story was true and which part was just another lie?
