Just as he was about to give the order, the doors suddenly swung open.
A hooded figure stepped out slowly from within, her pace deliberate and steady as she approached the group.
"My lord, I'm sorry—"
"It's fine, it's fine."The hooded figure already knew everything. She couldn't blame Veronika for how things had turned out."Welcome to my humble abode. Please, come in."
"But before anything else—"She raised both hands and pulled back her hood."I am Cambela. A pleasure to meet you."
Jeremy stared at the woman with a surprised expression.What caught his attention wasn't her beauty, but the scars and burn marks covering her face.
They made her... unique.
Her glossy purple hair and faintly pink skin made her look human enough.Only her horns—long, slender, twisted into the shape of a crown—set her apart.
