Torn (Trylle Trilogy, book 2)
“Stockholm Syndrome I’d gotten used to the defense meetings after the big Vittra break-in during my christening ceremony.
We met in the War Room in the South Wing. The walls were plastered with maps. Red and green patches speckled all of them, revealing other tribes of trolls.
A huge mahogany table sat at one end, with a drawing board behind it. Elora and Aurora, Tove’s mother, stood behind it. For some reason, they always led the defense meetings together. Aurora didn’t trust Elora to run the ...kingdom, but I don’t know how Elora tolerated Aurora taking any amount of control.
Chairs littered the rest of the room, most of them mismatched because they’d been pulled from other rooms to fill the space. Our mothers commanded the meetings, so Tove and I were always the first people in attendance. It worked to our advantage, and we hid in the back.
The usual twenty or so attendees were here: Garrett Strom, Willa’s father and my mother’s possible boyfriend; the Chancellor, a pasty, overweight man who stared at me in a way that made my skin crawl; Noah Kroner, Tove’s ever silent father; and a few other Markis, Marksinna, and trackers.MoreLess
