Summary
“This is why, you know” he starts.
“Why, what?”
“Why I chose her. She wouldn’t do something like this. She was the better bet.”
Maybe it’s the weight of what was happening finally catching up, or the suffocating numbness she can feel spreading at his words, but Alina laughs. A cackling, getting tickled in sensitive spots, laughing so hard her abdomen hurts, kind of laugh. The confused expression on the General’s face makes her laugh even more; he obviously wasn’t expecting this type of reaction.
Alina finally settles down, wiping tears from her eyes. She’s still giggling by the time she responds, “If imprisonment is the consequence of not choosing to be a pawn in whatever twisted game of chess you’re playing, then please point me towards the dungeons and I’ll shackle myself.”No one could accuse her of not trying. Alina had been content to live out the rest of her miserable, life in semi-comfortable exile, but the world seemed determine to burn her into ashes. Silly of it, really. Phoenixes were always reborn.
