I wasn’t sure where I was going or what I was planning to do, but I wanted the fresh air in my lungs to clear my mind.
After I’d been outside for a few moments, the bitterness in my chest seemed to be relieved to a degree. I let out a sigh. I didn’t even understand why I felt the strange need to see Theo or talk to him.
At this point, I didn’t owe him anything, and he’d granted me freedom. I’d gotten what I wanted, and there was no reason to be upset.
Yes, I would comply with Prince Theo’s wishes and leave the castle— after I went to see his animals and tell them a proper goodbye. I had become close to them, especially that silly snake of his.
Just then, before I could even make it to his zoo, I heard a thud, sounded like something fell on the ground.
What happened? I changed my path to check it out in case someone needed help.
