The Godess Had Returned

When the carriage stopped, a large crowd was waiting for Eve with their eyes on the door.

When the door opened, they all cheered for her. The crowd was mostly full of commoners yet they brought the best flowers, the finest silk they could afford and their best food for her.

They looked at her as if they were looking at the goddess.

Abraham held her hand closely and took her to the stage made for the royal family on the plaza. Soliene tried to catch up. But more and more crowds stood in the way and she was having a hard time reaching Eve.

The nobles had seats available around Eve. Eve's seat was next to Carmen and Philip. On her left was a seat for Abtaham. But Damien was already sitting there. His hands held the arms of the chair tightly when his eyes met her. Her gaze flickered and no one else noticed but he did how her speed quickened. How the smile turned real on her lips when their eyes met.
