Chapter 48 He looks around and decides to move toward the center space. It’s a good strategy for a triangle formation. He stops right in front of us and I finally get to take him in. His scent is a little similar to the king’s, except he has a hint of flames to it. Like burning potpourri. It’s intoxicating. Pleasant even. His eyes are lighter than the King’s. Colder.

His hand opens and I step back without taking my claws back. His eyes move to where we’re joined.

“I spilled it. I got it,” I say tugging it toward me. “I can go get you more snacks,” he argues and pulls me forward. “Nonsense, you’re the King. That’s ridiculous, I shake my head and pull back.
