Bab 612: ALL WAS RIGHT IN THE WORLD

ARIANNE POV

"Tag'arkh?" 

A few murmured whispers rippled through the hall as every head turned toward the door. A towering figure stepped into view, her presence commanding and undeniable.

Tag'arkh strode into the grand hall with the confidence of a woman who knew exactly who she was. She paused just inside the doorway, planting a hand on her hip and striking a dramatic pose. Her fiery gaze swept across the room, challenging anyone brave enough to hold her stare.

Her gown was a masterpiece—deep brown like the rich earth, accented with streaks of fiery orange and red that flickered like dancing flames. The colors seemed to shift with her movements, giving her the appearance of being cloaked in fire.

"Miss me?" she said, her voice a low purr that carried through the room.

"TAG'ARKH!" Caeden and Cyril yelled along with all the other children and before I knew it, they were all running forward, going to hug her.
