บท 901: Chapter 117: Lost Control

*Jared*

I could tell that Hestia was weak as we traveled to the stone circle. She had her servants with her, but we still had to stop frequently throughout the day.

Hestia always played it off as wanting her palanquin bearers to rest, but I could tell it was for her own benefit.

Either way, Hesita was still dangerous. She looked weak, but I had no doubt she could still be a danger to Eliza. I had to keep her focus on me and keep Eliza safe.

If I said or did anything wrong, Hestia would go after Eliza and our unborn child.

When we stopped for the third time in one day, I sat down on a rock far from the group.

Hestia had her servants to tend to her. They never bothered me, thankfully.

I breathed in deeply, taking in the fresh air. We’d be at the stone circles by nightfall, despite Hestia’s persistent stops.

Moving slowly had its advantages. It gave Eliza a chance to catch up with Archer and figure everything out.
