However, before I can come up with something, Elora turns to me and says, “Let’s go.” “Follow us,” I tell the handmaidens, and together they form a neat line with Madam Mara in front, trailing behind Elora like a group of ducklings. I remain behind them, watching in case one of them tries to do something dirty or if one of the guards suddenly wake up. Thankfully none of these things happen.

I’m too frightened to be hurt or proud, so I beg, “Please, Gwen! This is life or death!” “It was too, with Nina and Madeline! You’ve made your choices, bitch. Now live with them!” I realize with a growing pit in my stomach, that Gwen is not going to let me inside of this room. It’s a safe room, she said so herself, but to me, it might as well have been on a different planet.

The ones who stuck around have their own little system. Misha- my handmaid- had mentioned that the handmaids know not to be alone in the quarters need Dorian's chambers. Alone, a girl might be easy to overpower, but two, three girls at once are too much for Dorian to handle.

I dropped my knife and fork on the plate before I pushed myself off my chair.

The maid seemed to understand the silent plea in her eyes, and Isabella felt a spark of hope flicker within her. Later that night, as Isabella lay on her hard, damp mattress, she heard a soft tapping at her cell door. She sat up, her heart racing with anticipation. The door creaked open, and the head maid slipped inside, carrying a small plate of warm soup and crackers. Isabella’s eyes widened with surprise and gratitude as she took the plate from the maid's hands. She felt tears prick at the corners of her eyes as she took her first sip of the warm soup. It was the first proper meal she had had in what felt like weeks.

The head maid said, biting her lips and avoiding Carly's eyes Kihara closed her eyes as she felt anger surging inside of her, she tried to hold it back even as she wanted to explode and do something immediately. She looked at the head maid, then at Carly who took her hand, gesturing that she should be calm with her eyes as she caressed her fingers. Carly looked at the handmaid who was still avoiding her eyes, she asked her to look up at her which the head maid did. "Please I don't want to die now, I have my siblings to take care of.

Adalia was not still from exhaustion of labor nor did she breathe a sigh of relief, she gave out her last breath. She was dead. An icy feeling snaked up from inside my stomach and clawed around my throat, squeezing mercilessly. I choked and coughed. How many more deaths did I have to see before I finally snapped and lost it?

Did she just lost her emotion over a rookie?—she then stared at the now elated handmaids with the princess. “Seriously, speaking who are these handmaids?” After, she glanced at Abbey— Not saying anything about the princess being free from her slumber but stared out of the huge now melting window frame.
