Past

I returned back to Manor at midnight and slept right after, the huge battle and mingle after that had thoroughly tired me like never before.

I had slept through the night and the better part of the morning before I finally woke up. It was around 10:00 AM when I woke up, and it took me forty-five minutes to freshen up and shower before I walked out of my room.

"You woke quite late," Mon said as she served me the breakfast which my father had made some times ago. "The party night was quite tiring," I replied as I ate. 

"It usually is, social events are more tiring than the battles." Mom said with a laugh as she took a seat in front of me, as she sat, a smile on her face faded and her mood became somber.

"You must be wondering about your mother's identity, right? After yesterday's meeting?" Mom asked that I just nodded. "It is time to tell you some things; you deserve to know about them." Mom said as she gently ruffled my hair.
