What should Marvella say? Was her brother already aware of her true identity?
No, it must not be it. If he knew, why would he suspect her of being Clan Leader Owen's ally, right? He knew very well that he's their family's enemy.
"Actually, I…" she looked at the knights behind Ezekiel, then discontinued her statement.
"Leave us," Ezekiel ordered. When they left and closed the door, he told her, "They're gone. What is it that you can't let them know?"
"This…"
Marvella removed the onyx ring from her finger. Her hair glittered, and from the roots, it turned back slowly to its original platinum blonde color.
When Ezekiel saw this, he was speechless. Like artifacts, these magical gemstones were rare. Maybe it was the Queen Mother of Marcissa Kingdom who gave it to Marvella, and she could use it because she said that the Primus Clan was a direct descendant of their kingdom's King Father.
