As soon as Zeres arrived in Reigns Castle, he went straight inside Zeke's study. When he saw Lucas standing in one of the watchtowers, he was relieved because he thought they already left the kingdom.
"Kiel!" his voice was a little loud as he strode towards Zeke, placing his palms on top of the prince's massive desk.
Zeke, who was busy with his computer, simply glanced at Zeres and continued tapping on his laptop again. "You are not leaving yet?" Zeres asked, his voice mellowed out, seeing that the prince seemed still very busy.
"Not yet."
"Why? I thought you were in haste."
"Well, something came up. I need to deal with it first."
"Is it because of what Alicia saw in the memories stored within her?"
These words made Zeke's fingers halt. He finally lifted his face and leaned his head against the back of his seat. His gaze on Zeres was calm, but something sharp and dangerous was playing in them.
