How It Happened - 14 ( Into The Palace - 2)

Ruby took his hands even as her heart raced in her chest. She was anxious about walking into the palace yet she knew she would be alright with Seth by her side.

As Seth turned around to face the palace's doors, Ruby swallowed and nodded her head at nothing in particular but her thoughts. Her mind swirled with various thoughts all at the same time.

Were her parents watching from wherever they were? Could they see that she was about to walk into their home and avenge their deaths? Could they see that she was about to take her rightful place as the queen of the Ziviel kingdom? Somewhere deep within her heart, Ruby hoped that this would bring them some sort of peace.
