Chapter 134: Bonus Story–Happy Birthday, Mila-Part 2

Ciana led us to a woman that was in distress. I could tell from the material of clothes and jewelry that she came from a wealthy background.

She was clutching her stomach and I could feel that something was wrong. I could sense it straight through my bones. It was some kind of dark magic. That’s why I could feel it so strongly.

“Soren, we need to get her inside. She’s been cursed or something,” I said quickly.

Soren scooped the woman into his strong arms and moved her into our vacation home.

He got her settled on a bed and left the young lady to my care. It took a couple of hours to fully examine her and the extent of her injuries and clean up her wounds.

Ciana stood by and watched, which was another good lesson for her.

“Mom, what’s this?” Ciana found a backpack the woman had been carrying and was going through her belongings. It was the only way to learn more about her since she’d passed out when Soren picked her up.

I glanced over at Ciana and what she was holding. It was a map…

My eyes widened. It was the map of the dungeon under the royal palace!

Soren had returned to my side and also recognized where the map was showing. He glanced at me with a worried look. If this young woman was from the palace, would she have anything to do with Prince Justin or Queen Regina?

“How’s she doing?” Ciana asked, pulling me out of my thoughts.

“Her external wounds seemed severe, but in reality, they aren’t difficult to treat. However…” I wasn’t sure about the curse, so I held back the information. As I spoke, I used my magic, scanning over her to see if there was anything I’d missed, and to my surprise, she was pregnant!

“Oh…” I gasped and shook my head. If she was pregnant and cursed, what would happen to the baby?

However, I didn’t have time to think further on that question, because she started to wake up.

As soon as she opened her eyes and saw us, her eyes immediately became alert and wary. “Give that back to me!” the young woman snapped at Ciana.

Soren handed the map over, and Ciana jumped in to apologize, “Sorry, we didn’t mean to pry. It fell out and I was just curious. I’m Ciana and these are my parents. You’re in our house. Are you feeling better?”

Ciana just had the power to put people at ease and make them like her. The woman in the bed softened up after seeing Ciana’s smile.

“I’m sorry I snapped. Thank you for saving me… I just… don’t always know who to trust.”
