Chapter 51: [Bonus chapter] The Magic Tower (2)

(From Blue's Perspective)

I climbed up the stairs slowly. Every single place in the round and narrow tower was untidy. Wherever my eyes went, there was nothing but books. I wondered if Luc read all of those. Dem did not tell me much about him, but the way it seemed, it was clear that they were friends though my husband was too reluctant to admit it. 

It was still hard to believe what he said a moment ago. He truly made sure my family was punished. Perhaps I was evil, but I was happy. From the beginning, I knew that the things they were doing to me were wrong. But I could not do anything. I had lost all my hopes. Living in that hell, I had never learned how to dream. And I did not know if I would be able to know the real meaning of dreams. 

But I was wrong. Now I knew what dreams meant. After all, I was living in a dream myself. And I did not want to wake up either.
