CHAPTER 13

THE WORDS WILLIAM spoke washed over her like water smoothing out the sand. Everything a soft blur. She was up on her feet racing up the path before she’d made the conscious decision to go.

As she ran into the middle of the courtyard, she hunched over, hands on her knees, breathing heavily.

There had to be someone who would know.

“Lucy. What ails you?” He spoke softly to her as he would to a skittish horse.

How could he understand?

“I need a witch. She’s the only one who can help me.” A tear slid down her face as she wiped it away.

There was a man watching her. She ran up to him. “Do you know where I can find a witch? Is there one in the village?”

He gasped in horror, crossing himself before backing away.

The next two people she asked did the same. One even spat on her shoe.

“Cease,” William bellowed. He picked her up, slung her over his shoulder and stomped inside past the gawking observers.

Her tarnished knight in this nightmare of a fairy tale grumbled and swore all the way up the stairs and into the chamber. He kicked the door closed and tossed her on the bed like a sack of potatoes. Well, potatoes were probably treated more gently. At least the jolting ride up the stairs and through the air to land on the mattress snapped her out of what was shaping up to be a major hissy fit.
