Chapter 246 – What exactly are you talking about?

Seraphine had barely processed the sight of Daisy’s former allies turning on her when something else entirely pulled her attention and held it.

The moment her eyes found Daisy’s across the open ground, something happened that she couldn’t quite name. It wasn’t just anger looking back at her from Daisy’s face.

It was something wilder than that, something unhinged and burning, like whatever thin wall had been keeping Daisy’s composure upright had finally given way all at once.
