Kapitel 635: Chapter 635: Jail Break

Varity's mind felt startled when I reached for her, but she quickly sobered when I told her what I needed.

I'll meet you at the chapel, she sent. You're coming alone, I take it?

I couldn't bring Gram. No way was I involving her in the jailbreak when it could mean more trouble for our family later. Just Charlotte and I, I sent.

She had robes in her arms when we arrived, offered me mine without comment, but hugged me when I'd finished draping myself.

"She's so proud of you." Varity's eyes glistened with tears, lower lip trembling a little. "You're Ethie's granddaughter all right." Lips curving into a ferocious grin, she tore open the veil to the stronghold, the pull of her Enforcer magic skimming around the edges. "Just promise me you'll let me in on the action when you strip this wretched girl dry."

Oh, did I forget to tell her I planned to break Ameline out? That I'd lied to her, explaining I just needed to "see" the prisoner, wink wink, nudge nudge?
