Chapter 31

Seraphina’s POVBy the next night, the heavy weight of Orion's letter was still burning in my mind. I was a prisoner to the Rogue King's demands and a prisoner to the secrets I was hiding from Soren.A quiet message had been delivered to my room right after sunset. Lucas wanted to see me.I waited until the palace corridors grew silent and dark before I sneaked out of my royal wing.
