[HOLLY’s Point of View]
Returning to the balcony, I wiped the tears streaking down my face. I hated leaving Evlon but I trusted my friends. I knew they would do everything to protect him. They would never fail me. They loved Evlon like their own child.
And I knew my son would be in good hands whatever happens on the balcony, whatever happens with me and Evander.
The thought made me feel as if my chest was being wrecked open.
When I reached the doors, the wind was violently strong. Half of the balcony had fissures, threatening to cause the marble floor to fall to the palace grounds.
