“Is it a wise idea to work right now?" Noah asked in a skeptical tone.
“That would be up to Zara!" Harriet said. “The job is there if you want it, dear."
I thought this over and muttered, “It won't be a captive situation, right?" I knew the answer to that, of course, and so kept my tone light. If it had been, I wouldn't be there and given the choice.
Harriet chuckled. “No, dear. Not at all. That I can promise."
“Good," I said with a half-smile. My mate bond with Noah wasn't working out at all and the Luna Lilies were a bust, but maybe I still had a career.
I'd lose the Luna Lily cultivation soon, after all. It was so much work down the drain, but it couldn't be helped. The effects of the lilies were likely causing this mess. The priestess's warnings rang out in my mind.
