Zoe

Episode 15

Even if she grovel, kneel and plead before lady Samar it will never change the woman’s black heart. She was determined in destroying her and waiting for her pagan gods whom she spilled her blood as offering to struck her heavily with an illness or with a disgraceful death.

Zoe ignored the hearsay and gossip coming from all angle. She strove and maintain her dignity before her enemies. She will not give them more reason to gloat over her misfortune. She will be strong and carry her head high. Enough of self-pity after all she was innocent of every offense.
The mourning period passed and the week wore on.

Zoe has sighted her father in-law watching her intensively from his chamber window which face her quarter. She has seen him more than once and wonder what was in his mind.

Zoe waited patiently. Sooner or later her father in-law will have to make a decision.
Either he is given Shelar to her or he has another plan within himself but until then she will do what she has always done. Patiently wait.

And the day finally came. Lord Amos summoned her and Zoe was prepared for whatever he has to say.
