Chapter 40 Love And Responsibility

• I returned to our chambers and found her things untouched, which meant she had not been here to take any of them. She had run away just like she did eight years ago, only this time, I made her leave.
• I lied to her, avoided the truth and broke her heart in the end.
• I had sent out guards to search for her also and I went ahead with a carriage, but we couldn’t find her. After many hours of searching for her, I returned to the Palace. I felt Kailani must have returned to Lurds, but I couldn’t guarantee that was true. I needed a guarantee. That something bad hadn’t happened to her. This was all my fault. She could be in danger for all I know, and I pushed her into that danger.
