Baby's POV
"What the-"
I stood there, dumbfounded, my emotions swirling like a tempest within. I couldn't believe what I had just heard. We had both silently concurred that Nancy must remain in the dark about this unsettling development.
After coercing the guard to take Betty away but she secretly follows us, I sought out Roland. We hurriedly made our way to the grand hall, anxiety etched on both our faces. The threat of Lycian and his marauding horde loomed ominously; a dark cloud that refused to disperse. I was eager to confront him, to exact vengeance for the vile words he had hurled at me, but Roland's words had sown seeds of doubt. we may be facing insurmountable odds.
Lycian and his men could attack us at any moment after what happened last night, I can't wait to fight him either not after everything he had said to me, I can't let him live but Roland said the dark witch controls his army if that is true then we don't stand a chance against them.
