Emmah was not having a very good day, it had not been a good week or month either. From the moment she abandoned the Windrider's, she had been living in hiding, not daring to show her face in public.
While she was hiding out on Benjamin's estate she had been living like a fugitive. Desperate to hide the news of her presence there, she had kept a low profile. Normally, she moved around the estate like an overlord, barking orders, stepping on servants and firing those that displeased her.
However, since she was in hiding when she went there this time, she had been meek like a baby lamb. Her language was polite, when she met the servants and Benjamin's foster children she was nice.
It had killed her to behave that way but she had done so because she did not want to draw unnecessary attention to herself. Things became much worse when Prince Benjamin decided to pick a leaf from Prince Firron's behavior, choosing the most advantageous female to be his first wife.
