Capítulo 154: 154.

""Commander, forgive me. I did not mean to frighten you."" The man was saying and Neriah's heart was still racing. She was trying her possible best to calm it down but even her legs were trembling. Her hands that held the iron bar refused to let go.

I should just go back up. I really should just go back. Neriah thought in her head. But then, I am here already. I already came this far. And if I go back, I will only be giving Barak a reason to say I told you so. I will only be giving him a chance to mock me. I cannot allow that. I will definitely show him.

With those words of determination in her head, Neriah held her breath and finally released the iron bars. With even deeper breaths, she steadied her legs and took a step. The first was shaky, but she balanced herself and took the next step and in seconds, she was standing next to the knight.
