THE SINFUL EMPRESS
Chapter Forty-Two
We all run in the direction of the sound. It is coming from one of the bedrooms, and I can tell clearly who that is. She is crying, she needs help. Alina.
Edgar is the first one to get to the door and he pushes it open with all the might. We all stream in, in a minute. Alina is crying her heart out. Her eyes are red and swollen, and she looks like she has been beaten. Of course, Lena gave her a blinding slap earlier, that could be the reason.
She has her knees folded to her chest and her face buried in them. She is obviously feeling ashamed of what is happening, or rather what she did.
Did she regret this early? No idea, but I wish she did because that way, she will spit everything to us. What changed too soon? Just early this morning, Alina thought everything is about me, now she needs help.
