章 369: Furious Draven

The flight towards the palace was uneventful. Normally, Morpheus would delay reaching the palace in order to spend more time with Ember, but after what happened, the shapeshifter dared not pull any petty trick and wanted to make sure he would be long gone before she woke up.

Rather than bringing her to the front door and alarming all the servants of the palace,  Morpheus opted to land on the balcony of Ember's study. He carried her inside and took her towards her chambers. 

"Miss!"

Ember's servants were pacing back and forth in the hallway outside. When Ember left, she had forgotten to inform them, causing them to panic when she went missing.  Fortunately, they spotted a gray feather that had fallen on the balcony, and they guessed that their master might have left with Morpheus.

Reya and Clio had been impatiently waiting for her to return, and if Morpheus had arrived a bit later, they would have already reported her disappearance to Yula.
