The moment the unit led by Karadeylis disappeared beyond the horizon, my life turned into a living hell. And the one arranging it for me was none other than the king’s dearest wife.

The “brightest ray of light and the most precious thing in Kays’s life” turned out to be a rare, first-class bitch and a master of pretense. How he ever failed to see who he was tying his life to is beyond comprehension. Perhaps it’s no coincidence that the young Kais’s close circle—and Laverna—never liked her much.

And Kays himself added fuel to the fire by leaving the situation unresolved and riding off. The hall had been full of servants, guards, and several members of the nobility when Bahira appeared and began telling her heart-wrenching story about how she had suffered and missed her HUSBAND, loudly recalling their wedding and the fact of their marriage. Kays didn’t refute her story; instead, he comfortingly embraced her, confirming everything she said. And so no one dared contradict Bahira in her wh

    And again I saw it—the black clump. Only this time I saw it inside Figaro again. I watched as Laverna’s power tore into that mass, drawing it out and devouring it. The spiders and worms writhed like a panicked swarm of cockroaches, and some of them were swallowed by the witch’s magic as well.Laverna finished and spat out another black lump, but I kept staring at my little beast, watching the filth still left inside him. There was much less now. And then I felt the old woman grab my hand and sharply pull me toward her, staring into my eyes.“You…” she whispered, her green eyes like deep pools—and now I could see she was sober. “She gave you her power…”“What’s happening to me?” I asked, and the witch pushed me toward a mirror. I saw my eyes glowing faintly, and while they still saw more than usual, I looked at Laverna herself. I managed to glimpse something like a vessel, covered in filth and black chains. But that vessel was cracked, like dried mud—and through those cracks… bright li

    A wave of stunned, astonished gasps swept across the square. People immediately began whispering among themselves. They looked at me in different ways—some with fear, covering their mouths, some with curious interest, some going pale from the news… but there were also those who looked at me with something else.With hope.Especially the people standing beneath the stands—ordinary folk in simple clothes, without noble insignia. In the crowd I found the girl who was now tightly holding the freed guard, and I saw hope in her eyes… and gratitude. She stared at me without looking away, and I easily read her lips:Thank you.But when I shifted my gaze to the nobles’ tribunes, it was clear they felt no joy at all. Many of them had tensed, already animatedly discussing the news among themselves, gesturing vividly.Oh, I’ll get to you all!I’m certain that among them there are those who helped Helroy in the slave trade. Scum like that never work alone—they always have protectors “up above.”I

    Emotion nearly choked me. I tore my eyes away from him and turned in shock to the crowd behind me. I was searching for something… and I found it.Several rows back stood the woman I had seen. Silent horror was frozen on her face. Below her, three little boys were clinging to her, hiding their faces in their mother’s arms and quietly sobbing.My soul was being torn apart by what I felt. I was in shock, in outrage, in pure fury.“Release him! He is innocent!” I declared loudly, glaring at this grotesque spectacle of a crowd.“Naziza… you shouldn’t make hasty judgments…” Gerald began, but a surge of anger flooded me and I snapped.“I SAID HE IS INNOCENT!” My voice boomed like thunder from a clear sky—so powerful I barely recognized it myself.The square went so silent it felt as though the world itself had stopped. Everyone stared at me in shock, and even Gerald went pale.“Do as Naziza says,” the king ordered hoarsely, his voice trembling—and the man was released at once.The next two g

    When I appeared before Gerald, I knew from the look in his eyes that I had done the right thing. The old man was staring at me with open admiration and obvious approval. Of course, the time I’d been given to create a new image was catastrophically short, but even that had been enough to make an impact.Among the piles of clothes, one outfit caught my attention. It was a short black top made of something that looked like leather. The moment I tried it on, I knew—it was mine. It framed my curves so perfectly, so deliciously, that it left plenty to the imagination, and I was thrilled. But when I found matching tight pants that hugged my beautiful ass in the most insanely sexy way, I completely fell in love with this bold biker-girl look. Bad girl in all her glory.On the dresser I also found makeup kits, and I couldn’t resist quickly completing the look with some daring makeup. Even done in a rush, it turned out stunning—especially after I added dark red lipstick.For a moment I even had

    Sitting up in bed, I can’t quite tell whether I’m still dreaming or already awake. My hands are glowing—my whole body is glowing. Pushing past the panic, I realize I’m not in pain, but I’m terrified out of my mind. As I stare at myself, I see the light slowly fading until I look normal again.What the hell?! What was that?!I jump out of bed and go to the huge mirror. It’s still dark outside, but I can see myself in every tiny detail. I seem to be faintly glowing, like phosphorus. Looking around, I realize I can see perfectly in the dark. What kind of madness is this?And then I make the mistake of looking at Figaro, sleeping peacefully on the bed. My hair stands on end when I realize I can see slightly through him. Inside him there is a huge black mass of sticky webbing, crawling with swarms of disgusting spiders and horrible writhing worms. They’re gnawing into his flesh, causing him pain—he even whimpers softly in his sleep.My poor baby… I pray the witch doesn’t lie and really hel

    Turab’s eyebrows shot up at such a loud and confident declaration. He looked at me even more intently, as if trying to find some kind of answers in me.After bowing, the guard left to carry out the order, and we continued our meal.“Who was that?” I asked. If I was going to stay here, I needed to understand who was who.“That was Turab, my chief guard and military instructor—a splendid and brave warrior,” Gerald proudly advertised his man. “I think I’ll assign him as your personal protector. You won’t find anyone more loyal and reliable in the kingdom. I’ll sleep easier knowing you’re under his protection.”I didn’t feel like arguing with the old king, so after dinner I went with Figaro, escorted by servants, to the room that had been prepared for me.My bedroom was enormous. Just like in Briol, the suite consisted of several rooms—a foyer, the bedroom itself, a bathroom, and a wardrobe. Everything was done in white and soft pastel tones, and for a moment I even wondered if I had ende
