Chapter 114. Mission Complete

Vienna's POV

Mission complete.

Failure wasn’t something that defined me, and that’s why we’re now thousands of miles away from Cercei’s beloved mate.

Lord Drogo, a man of considerable influence and connections, had orchestrated our swift journey from the Northern territory toward the Southern sanctuary. For him, the art of manipulation was as effortless as lifting a finger.

Our stay in his lavish mansion had been brief, just a day to recharge before the next leg of our journey. Lord Drogo provided us with a capable crew and a serviceable ship. We had to travel by water because the skies were under strict surveillance, as Lucian’s men were tracking us down. And even though the seas were closely guarded, Lord Drogo had already made his strategic moves.

The ship he provided was smaller and less extravagant than what I was used to, back home, but it was sufficient. I had grown tired of the North’s cold, and my heart yearned for the warmth of the South.
