Chapter 94

• My heart hammers in my chest as the warriors roughly drag me through the courtyard to the courtroom. This is the last place I’d expected for my old husband to summon me. Things don't look good at all. What is he trying to do? Why this place.
• I said I wouldn't panic about anything. I wouldn’t let anything get to me. I was ready for whatever worse would come to me. But I'm not sure I am. I never envision the courtroom as part of the place my old husband will use as a punishment.
• A lot of bargaining goes on in the courtroom. There are men who will be willing to buy me off for some piece of land. If that is my fate, I won't be able to stand it. I can’t separate from my pup. I will rather die than let anything come between us.
