The Author's POV.
Angelina looked up but help was far way from her. The people gathered above with torches. They sang songs of death as they came.
She knew the only way out was to ask queen mother Daria for forgiveness.
For sake of her child , she needed to pretend in order to live.
"Queen mother Daria" Angelina called. She came closer to the pit. "Please let me go, I promise to leave Akkad and never return. Forgive my innocent child."
Queen mother Daria smirked and said "The child of a witch can never be innocent. He is paying for all your sins. The child also contributed to Stefan's madness. My own son tried to kill me because of you, Angelina!"
She wondered when he tried to kill her. Nobody told her about it. In order not to prolong the matter, Angelina decided to apologize. "Forgive us Queen mother, Stefan was not in his right senses. He still loves you."
