Chapter 29 Accused Of Murder

• ~Elara POV~
• ​In the Crescent Clan, I was only confined to a small, hidden world, far from any human city. Aunt always said the outside was dangerous. I was homeschooled, and my movements monitored. I was clueless.
• ​As Kai drove the sleek black sedan, I felt a giddy, childish wonder. I let my hand slip outside the window, giggling as the cool, fresh breeze whipped past my fingers. The sheer scale of the city was breathtaking. Tall, gleaming skyscrapers stood magnificently, piercing the clouds. For a few minutes, I forgot the monster, the curse, and the chains that bound me. I was just a girl seeing the world for the first time.
