Chapter 190. AT THE FRONT OF THE DARK TUNNEL.

  In the evening, Danika was in her bedroom brushing her hair when Baski walked in.

  "The king requests that you should be the one to bring his dinner to him in his Chambers." She informed her with a concerned smile.

  Danika's heart skipped three beats. "Baski?"

  The older woman walked closer and took the comb from her. She watched her through the mirror as she ran the comb through her long blonde hair. "My dear?"

  "I've run out of time." She whispered, her hand caressing her slight bump.

  "I know." Baski let out a shuddering breath, "I know, Danika. But, the Heavens are with you. They will guide you."

  "Courting week ends tomorrow. He wants to spend the night with me."

  "I know that too. I was thinking, maybe we should go together to tell him about your condition. If I go with you, I might be able to reach him before disaster happens."

  Danika swiveled her head and looked up at the older woman.

  "Maybe." Baski amended.
