Chapter 50 Speaking With Thorne

• ~ Elara ~
• After the council meeting finally ended, I couldn’t wait any longer. The tension in the room had been suffocating, and there was something about Thorne’s demeanor that left too many questions hanging in the air. I needed answers. As everyone dispersed, I caught Thorne’s eye, and before I lost my nerve, I asked to speak with him.
• “Thorne, we need to talk,” I said, my voice firm, not leaving room for refusal.
