Chapter 15 Disclosure and mystery What's to be done? What to do if he is not a baby? I forgot how to talk out of fear. And Villian had already raised my pendant and spun it in his hands. - What a subtle spell," he said, either approving or judgmental. - Even I couldn't figure out what was going on here. That was cleverly done, Your Highness. - Look, Lord Willian... - Shh, shh, shh, shh. Villian grabbed my elbow, easily opened my secret closet, as if he always knew about it, and pushed me inside...

Chapter 14 (continued) There are no face masks to see Finally, the hour has come. At least I thought so, and I came out of the closet. I corrected the mask that was hiding my face well and hurried to the sounds of music. The masquerade had already begun. Couples were spinning in the bewitching sounds of music. I wonder if Lord Laherney's lunch was poisoned? Judging by the fact that there were many dancers, most survived. I looked for Ari's eyes, and I couldn't find them.

What happened? - I asked. - What happened?! - A lady of immense size screamed - the head of the first family, apparently. - Nothing special.

Chapter 13 In a whirlwind of masks Reniard I shouldn't have come here. This thought has been on my mind for a couple of days now. I shouldn't have - and that's it. Fool! To whom and what did I want to prove? Lord? They don't care about any evidence. To yourself? Too stupid, because I myself was confused by my own desires.
