Bab 192: Why?

Esme had heard from Luciana about what mermaids talk about at the tea parties. From their lovers to their jewels, from music to marriage... their discussions had a huge range of topics and Esme hoped that she would be able to put all that knowledge to use even though she barely found herself interested in those. 

''Oh, my brother is there,'' Luciana let go of Esme's hand and walked back towards the gates, leaving Esme standing alone amidst a bunch of women who looked like strangers because of her lack of memories. 

Esme's eyes widened, ''Lucy,'' she called out to the woman but Luciana was already at a distance. 

Esme bit her bottom lips. 

''Please, join us, My Lady,'' one of the women around the round table spoke up. 

Esme raised a brow at their way of addressing her. 

''You are here with Lady Luciana and that too with a veil on your face so you must be someone with a special identity.''
