Chapter 39 SAGE

"My lady, are you planning to go somewhere?" Elara asked, curiosity evident in her eyes as she noticed me getting ready to

leave.

I hadn't anticipated Elara's arrival. If I had, I would have left much earlier. Now, I had to think quickly of a way to leave the palace unnoticed. "I stammered, my eyes darting around the chamber as I desperately tried to come up with a plan.

"N-NO,

"If you wish to go out, I can accompany you, my lady," she offered

"Can I?" I asked in genuine surprise.

She chuckled at my expression. "You're not a prisoner here, my lady. You can leave the palace whenever you want," she explained.

I scoffed. "That would have been useful information when I was still trying to escape this place for good, I murmured under my breath. my lady?" she asked, tilting her head.

Were you saying something, that you mention it, I think I'd like to go out. I want to look for a new dress," I said, improvising

"N-Nothing. I quickly denied. "Now that

"Of course, my lady. I'll inform the guards and prepare the car, she said before leaving the room.

Once Elara was gone, I let out a sigh of relief. This unexpected turn of events might actually work in my favor.

I hurriedly finished packing my bag, making sure everything was in place. I grabbed my cloak and dagger, slipping them into the bag, and waited for Elara to return. After a few moments, she reappeared, a smile on her face. "The car is ready, my lady. Shall we?"

I nodded, trying to maintain my composure. "Yes, let's go."

As we walked through the palace halls, I couldn't help but feel a mix of anxiety and anticipation. This was my chance to find the answers I needed to understand the mark and my newly awakened wolf. I just had to make it to the witch without anyone noticing, not even Elara.

Though she has been nothing but good and accommodating since I arrived at the palace, I'm still not sure where her loyalty lies. Now that I'm harboring a great secret that may cost me my life, I can't trust anyone.

Elara led me to the car waiting outside. The driver opened the door, and I slipped inside, Elara following suit. The car started, and we drove away from the palace, the tension in my chest easing slightly with each passing moment,

As we left the palace grounds, I glanced at Elara, who was busy chatting with the driver about mundane matters. I knew I would have to make my move soon. The outskirts of the kingdom were still a considerable distance away, and I couldn't afford any delays. We reached the edge of the bustling city, and I saw my opportunity. "Elara, could you stop here? I just remembered I wanted to visit a specific shop nearby, I lied smoothly.
