“And that’s why the sofa and everything is wet.” I finished.

I had spent the last hour telling Charlene about my powers, how Theon assumed I might be part mage or fae, and about the frost all over the cabin. “Dear Selene… that’s… amazing.” Charlene whispered in awe.

“I don’t know if it is, but I was thinking of asking Madelia or maybe Zarian to see if they could help me channel it or something?” I mused as I stood up from where we had both been sitting cross-legged on the floor. 1

“Hmm, I think Zarian is the better choice. Madelia is far too close to Dad, She obeys his orders without question, and if you don’t want Dad to know, then I would say avoid her.” Charlene said. “You have become stronger since your birthday, even I can sense it… Yileyna, do you think you made the odd storm happen last night?”

I almost laughed. “A storm? I highly doubt that.” “I’m serious… like you said, the entire place was frosted. The storm came on suddenly and was crazy all through the night, and it only calmed considerably after three in the morning…” Charlene said thoughtfully. “Which would rule out you being a mage. Without casting a spell, there’s no way you can draw upon your magic…” “So you think I’m part fae then?” I asked tilting my head. “Yes! Oh my goddess! You must be, you are so beautiful it makes sense!” She exclaimed in excitement, cupping my face. I raised an eyebrow before my amusement faded away as the reality set in that one or both of my parents may not be blood-related to me. As if realising what was on my mind, Charlene hugged me.

“Our blood does not make us who we are, just as I consider you as my sister.” She gave me a squeeze and I smiled.

She was right, no matter who or what I was, my parents were always going to be my parents. I was the daughter of William and Hana De’Lacor and no one else. “Right, so let’s do this. We first find a new apartment, and then we talk to Zarian.” Charlene decided.

“Aren’t you going to be missed at the castle?”

“Not yet, I have a few hours free before I need to return, and we need to think of a plan too…” She tapped her chin. “This ball… I wish you would come.” “Oh, I am coming.” I said as I laced up my boots. She turned sharply towards me in surprise and excitement.

“Really?”

“Yes, Raiden asked me to accompany him.” I said, as Charlene smiled..

“Ooo from one handsome man to another handsome but also charming young man! He’s liked you for so long!” “Let’s not forget that Raiden is the biggest playboy in the city. He’s slept with most women here. He only teased me and flirted.” I reminded her. “Oh I know but-”

“Charl, I’m not ready to think of anyone romantically,” I whispered trying to hide the pain in my eyes. “I’m sorry.” She replied apologetically. “It’s fine, let’s go.” I said picking up my coat and putting it on. We left the cabin together; our first plan of action was to find somewhere for me to stay. We made a quick stop at the bank where I filled up a bag of coins from our family vault, and I saw that the king had indeed given me a good lump sum for the trip we had made. 1 “Ok, let’s ask Madam Marigold if she knows a place! I’m sure she may have some rooms above the café too.”

“That’s true, we can ask her. I’m sure she may know someone or other who is offering a place. If they even accept me with my reputation as the daughter of a traitor. I can’t wait to remove this mark from my parent’s reputation.” I responded thoughtfully.

“She is one person who doesn’t care about anyone’s opinion or background, I’m sure she’ll happily help.”

It was true she had a mix of people working for her yet still her cafe wasn’t any less busy, it was a place where everyone could just enjoy the sweet treats and hot drinks without discrimination. We made our way there, with Charlene saying she couldn’t wait to have a hot drink with this blistering cold.
