#Chapter33

She is inside the palace now, looking outside her window. She is thinking how things turned out this way. An insignificant girl, hated by her own father, becoming a demigod, savor of the city and in love with Keiran, the lord of the darkness. She smiles, feeling blessed for the first time in her life.

/"Are you alright?/" Keiran comes with warm tea and offers it to her.

/"Thank you/" she says, taking a sip.

/"What happened?/" he asks, being concerned.

/"Ugh, nothing/" she tries to brush it off. She looks in the distance and sees stones rising from the ground up.

/"What is that?/" she wonders. Her eyes widen as she immediately realizes; this is going to be the shrine.

/"Is this the shrine?!/" she exclaims.

/"You don’t like it?/" he wonders.

/"It’s not that but I--I don’t know!/" she says, covering her face and folding on her knees.

/"Okay, you need to tell me what’s going on/" he insists.
