The Beast And The Blessed
Chapter 111
Six: Joselin
Joselin's P.O.V.
"I don't really think we have any time to waste." Rona insisted as I glared at her. I wasn't ashamed to be the first one to admit that I had woken up in a terrible mood. I replayed the situation with Tobias a thousand times before finally falling asleep. "I'm sure the others would like to go home soon."
I knew the situation's urgency, but this did not qualify as an emergency. If anything, Rona's reaction to having to wait only made me more suspicious of her. "From your careful choice of words, I take it that you would prefer to stay in the castle, so I don't see what your hurry is. Other things need to be done before we can fill the two empty council seats."
Talia's betrayal and Agatha's death had hit me harder than expected, and I was angry that two of the women who had trained and raised me were now gone. They were both dead and now I had to pick two witches to replace them.
'We will start bringing in pledges for consideration over the next few weeks, but I want any personal drama to be put aside right now." My glare moved from Rona to Cora, and she adjusted in her seat as she pursed her lips. Ever since Rona had caused Cora to lose her leg in battle a few years ago, the women were at each other's throats.
I couldn't forget Margot and Aisha. Those two women couldn't be trusted to be left alone either, not after an incident where Aisha trapped Margot in a room with a rock troll as a practical joke. Margot got out with a concussion, a few broken bones, and the desire to dangle Aisha over the cliffside of one of the most inhabited siren coves along the coast.
She hung there for two days before someone found her and pulled her in.
I hated all of them except Agatha, but she was gone. Now I was left with four other women, and I didn't trust a single one of them. Nor would I trust any of the pledges they would bring in.
"For now, the meeting is adjourned." I stood and made my way to the door, hearing their grumbling behind me as I went. Today was not the day for them to test me, and it seemed everyone except Rona got that memo as she trailed after me on my heels.
Rona had always pushed my buttons, the evil bitch. Her mother used to bring her here to 'play' with me when we were kids while the council met. Her idea of fun was trying to bury me alive or burning the hallway outside of my room to see how long it would take me to escape. Not too long ago, she killed her mother, stealing her power and taking her seat on the council. Rona had never been tried for it, and it had never been proven.
Still, we all knew what had happened.
