chapter 79

Sierra resides on the far end of the building in her own rooms because we put her somewhere quiet and cozy where she could watch over the village from her own balcony every day. We didn t want her to feel alone up here so we made sure she has around the clock presence in the form of waiting femmes who tend to her every need.

Sierra is already at the table by the balcony doors when we stroll in, overlooking the forest side of the homestead, into the dense darkness that is framed by the distant mountains. So many memories of being out there alone every time I see the view from up here that it fully silences my previous train of thought and Colton drops me on my feet as we come to sit with her. Knowing our topic is over as Sierra wouldn t be too pleased knowing we were talking about matchmaking her.
