Chapter 119: Like mother like daughter
Defiance walked down the lonely path leading to the packhouse when Semeen caught up with her.
"Aunt Semeen, I know what you are going to say. My behavior was unbecoming of a princess and I should do better" Defiance decided to chastise herself before her aunt had a chance to do it.
"I was going to say you remind me so much of your mother"
"Yeah, I know. Mama was a handful but I am sure she didn't go to people's houses to beat them up" Defiance said and shrugged.
"Your mother wasn't a fountain of responsibility when she was your age either. Do you know how she met Ursla?"
"My mother's best friend? No, she never told me "
