Kapitel 533: Lockwood (1)

"Shut up," Kate muttered, trying silence the voice in her head. She bit away at her finger, regretting her decision to not travel to the court to see her mother. She stayed to hide because of the loss of her title which her mother promised she would keep. 

"You should have gone," Kate scolded herself. It would have been her last time to see her mother before she would be placed in the palace dungeon. "Is it too late?" She wondered. 

Surely the court would allow her to see her mother. 

Kate tapped her fingers on the window glass by the front door. From here she could see that a crowd had gathered by the gates, just waiting for a bit of news or to taunt her. Her old friends would certainly do it.
