DELILAH:
I woke up in a lonely bed. Those ducal chambers felt too big for one person. I could have stayed in other rooms, but Bachué ordered that I be allowed to sleep there.
Bachué…
Lately, I had felt her SO distant. There was a time when the two of us were inseparable. She had changed. The Bachué duchess was a little different. No, not a little, a lot.
I felt that her attention was only on gaining more and more power. It was as if I was secondary in her life.
I didn't know if I should be upset about that. It's normal that she has changed, isn't it?
Isn't it?
Who knows. Certainly not me.
Now she was gone. And she left me with an enormous responsibility.
I tossed and turned on that huge bed until I found the strength to stand up.
