Chapter 21 Is This A Dream

• Jadiel stayed hunched in on herself until Aidric left. She grabbed a fistful of hair and tugged hard on it.
• “I’m so stupid and weak! I’m useless and made him mad,” she cried rocking in distress.
• Why couldn’t she do anything right? Her family was right. She wasn’t worthy of Aidric. He needed someone strong like her stepsister. Her heart hurt. Sayrah whimpered in her mind. Maybe this was all a dream. Maybe she was back in prison again waiting for Leroy to punish her.
