章 215: Eynsworth Palace

"Are you ready, Anastasia?" he asked in a breathy voice. 

"I am," she said. 

He intertwined his fingers in hers and together followed Kaizan and Darla out of the woods into a clearing. Anastasia's eyes became wide with what she saw. Aidan was standing in front of a portal he had created with his hands crossed across his chest. How did he know that they were coming? A wide grin spread on his mouth when his eyes met Darla's. However, the Mozia controlled himself and bowed to the royalty first. 

"My lord, this portal will take you to the palace," said Aidan. 

"Does Mother know?" asked Ileus, not realizing that he was squeezing Anastasia's hand tightly. 

Aidan nodded. 

Anastasia was aware as to how complex the situation was, so she suggested, "If you think that it is still not right to go, we can always stay somewhere else." Her chest tightened at the thought of meeting Adrianna and that too without her daughter.
