Capítulo 139: For My Wife

Lina didn't touch any dish, but the pastries. She ate half a bun, but that was it. For the past few days, she ate the smallest nibble here and there. Today, she kept the plate of small pastries that ranged from flaky rolls to sticky bread. 

Minutes before dawn, Lina woke up. The sky was a deep hue of dark blue, for the sun had only just woken up. She quickly got dressed in the most fitted clothes she could find. Then, she took the sword from the table.

"For Teran."

Lina cut her hair off. She let the strands fall to the ground, then gathered them up beforeleaving them on the table, and tied up what little she had left. Her hair barely reached her shoulders now. The one thing that Kade always loved to touch. She had discarded with one cut.

Lina fixed her hair into a small bun. Then, she broke off a chair leg, slid it through the door handles to prevent anyone from entering. Lastly, Lina hooked the sword to her waist, jumped out of the window and snuck off.
