บท 507: 507. Horrifying Sight

Mauve sat on the edge of her bed as she waited for Jael. It has been three days since she went around the castle compound with Jael.

She was alone in her room and she was nervous. She had thought she would skip the last meal and spend the rest of the remaining days the Lords would be here in her room but that didn't seem to be the case.
