Initially, Rowena had hoped that meeting her mother's side of the family would give her the love and family she was longing for. However, she was quick to realize that it might not be the case. They actually saw her as a stranger.
The only other family she had was her father, but being with him was suffocating.
Maybe it was better to just live alone. Rowena clenched the hem of her dress and murmured, "Uncle, I want to go home."
"Home? Where? THIS is your home," Prince Jadeith said in surprise.
Rowena didn't know where was home. She had come to realize that home was not a place, but a person, and none of the people who were dear to her were there anymore. She was alone and lonely and didn't have a home.
Where should she go?
Tears slowly started rolling down her cheeks. Rowena wiped her tears roughly and pursed her lips. She stubbornly said, "Please take me back to my hut. That's my home. That's where Julian and I build our home."
