The Living Ingredient - A. Introduction
The chancellor made a great show of searching for his son, claiming that my fishmonger fiancé was the boy he had lost years ago.
In my previous life, I sensed something was wrong and tried to take him away. He had men beat me half to death.
“I’m the chancellor’s son now. I’ll be marrying a lady from a distinguished family. A village woman like you thinks she can marry that far above her station?”
What he didn’t know was that they meant to use him as a living ingredient to swap someone else’s life for his.
Given a second life, I delivered him to the chancellor myself.
“Does he look like your living ingre—oh, sorry. Your son?”
