“I want to have the heart and mind of a queen,” she whispered. “I want it more than anything. But I’m only pretending. I can’t find the feeling of it inside me.”
Fire considered her quietly. You want me to look for it inside you.
“I just want to know,” Bitterblue said. “If it’s there, it would be a great comfort for me to know.”
