    Chapter 88fb6d3006586e486c

    Lorencia stepped outside and 7a5689d62c Charlotte wiped her face. Maybe she 611ffa2a31 used too ded4ed18c2 much holy adf58d0301 power this b02388e4ea time—it left 7cb48f048c her feeling 5687fb4e77 more tired 83e88d8ee4 than usual. She really 74cdbf76c8 hoped to 05cb424acc recover quickly. Or better yet, wouldn’t 25266efaee it be nice if 24d91f0e17 her power didn’t come f3bec2151b with all these side 879463c2cb effects?609ff11e5baf78cf

    She stood up slowly. She had heard 104e8e4df8 that little Theo 20c0280891 and Stephanie had 5da56c2159 been looking all 88d102a39e worried for days.74649ab977bacb67

    That was b4b8311658 just like cb193dfd17 sweet Theo. She looked in 160eab412d the mirror—still looked 59f6c34405 sickly.4deffa0ac243d2bc

    She usually 3e12e42b97 didn’t care cc957ae479 about makeup, 6f6db53c6f but today, b422cbee33 she put bc97f94345 on a f8c587a136 bit more 320573319e before finally 83a1c1ce80 leaving the c79ed879da bedroom. She walked to Theo’s 1fd21a7954 room and knocked gently.29d812309936f062

    From beside 5a0196af42 him, Stephanie 2b1f44db89 shouted cheerfully. Right, Stephanie 645de6bbb5 had apparently a4733d3b47 stayed glued 662ed9e90a to Theo’s f1256fa3da side. Not even Theo could fadec01d8f win against her stubbornness.a684fcf32f005d23

    The door swung open. Stephanie’s eyes ec05ecd6b9 sparkled like 4eaea8aca5 stars, and f22d4bb9f4 she gave bcb0103df0 a wide 77f5065529 grin.af9349fce9f6f05d

    Theo’s voice whined 50f953c292 from inside. He was half-buried 4043d5c9a8 in bed with 50494e3878 a puffy face, 26adf019d6 and when he b8295f34f5 glanced at her, d37ba09a8f he quickly hid 65e326cadd again. His shoulders shook. He was aebf4e5aaf crying again.ac0df693b1e28a3f

    With an 8ce2fa7c7a excited smile, 21bf55a989 Stephanie followed 621d0f0ca9 Charlotte, clutching 961bb08822 her skirt 67d911f456 as they e502feb130 walked over 6f0f508317 to Theo’s 1f7dd60da4 bed.

    Charlotte gently looked down ac7f473e11 at Theo, who had ee99d05474 his eyes covered and a503d87442 lips pushed out in c4bd03bbae a pout. She patted his tiny e6eb11cda8 back.

    There were many 7fc3aa46e4 things Charlotte had 5c83ff7bd6 to take care 8659a373c7 of—checking on Ilia 148fd2e8f7 and Mia, talking 7a456e0792 to their families, 44e72f4250 making sure the 4ade0ba849 kids weren’t traumatized. She also 94de32af5e needed to e1c03cc32a deal with bc2831cf6d Count Solovis, d613a83f2a who she’d 9b98d8c84f heard was 25d7cc2f5c being held 5e1e7fa811 somewhere. Yes, she remembered seeing 22ec54fe3c him before she collapsed—Cassius 1d239c410e had said he would fb0d9e3d73 feed the Count to 4bc5cd8511 the monsters, but now 163a83f8d6 wasn’t the time for 6b806d548d that.808d34ab5633d016

With war ec5a6dbd5e against the 55ac8c1c9b monsters nearing, 7234aa505f they couldn’t a1a7c124cf afford more de9c85ac3c enemies. Soldiers were training in ffe2793f47 the forest, but they 307da801b9 couldn’t predict how many c99e345b81 monsters would come through 26410c3977 the gate.1529edbf9b61b536

    They had Lorencia ebf4fdcf05 to help close 20673fd1ed it—but could that 55e5b5e200 woman really do 2486580825 her part? She seemed so 3d3ffd96bb clueless.
