The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face - Plot & Excerpts
When they entered, Daiyu was startled at the anger in Feng Sun’s eyes. Her father’s hand gripping her arm confirmed that he also saw the danger. Seeing three of the stable boys cowering against the wall, dread choked her. Ting Lyn and her mother were standing to the side, their faces gleaming with hate. Wei walked in several minutes after Daiyu and her father. His frown confirmed that he was as surprised as they were at the assembled group. Feng Sun moved toward Daiyu. His voice was harsh. He spoke without preamble. “This morning I was given irrefutable proof of a crime you committed, Daiyu. A crime that is much graver than your forbidden practice of the warrior arts.” Wei jerked forward. “What the hell are you saying, Father? What are you accusing her of?” Feng Sun’s expression hardened. “Be quiet, Wei. No one, including you, is to speak. The matter has been decided. Five witnesses swore that Daiyu indulges in and is a purveyor of opium, the white death.” Daiyu fell back against her father’s chest, her eyes wide with shock.
