Chapter 134 - A Sore Misunderstanding

With every heartbeat, Jasmine pushed her horse through the thick forest. As the rest of the daylight turned to night, the tall trees surrounded her like silent guardians, their shadows creating unsettling patterns on the ground. She had left the Silver Talon mansion and made her way directly to Arcanis with just one thing in mind, Ramin. She had a lot of conflicting feelings racing through her head. Her mistress, Sylara, sent her on what could only be called a suicide mission, followed by witches who had given her fake smiles. Behind their kind words, the coven she thought she could trust, the sisters she thought she had discovered, had been betraying her. Jasmine was aware that she was never really accepted by them. They had put up with her, but she had no place in their hearts, or so she thought. Ramin was the only one she knew was genuinely hers, genuinely on her side. Even when the coven became chilly and the duties of her job burdened her, he had always been there for her.
