Kapitel 267: Echoes of War

Their words entered me, slicing through the darkness like the first ray of the morning sun. I hadn't dared hope that the reason they returned for me was for…well, me.

Why did he give away their base location? Even if he thought Starlight would attack on her own, and thus be easily caught, why risk it? Why not set up another ambush like they did last time?"

I opened my mouth, but the words caught in my throat. It was too much to admit the possessive nature of the slavers, and how desperately they wanted to enslave me again, to claim me. Fortunately, there was another reason, too, though it was Vithrass who gave it to me.
