That had come out of nowhere.
Cassandra decided to just get used to the fact that she would act weird around this man. She blamed it on the fact that she had seen him kill her.
"What are you— "
"That necklace is cursed, isn't it?" she asked. "Your highness, using my death to cause chaos between the crown prince and my family is a very smart thing to do. However, I believe I am the wrong woman for your sinister plans."
His smirk was replaced by a frown.
"You can, of course, kill me now to silence me but I doubt my brother and grandfather would allow you to leave our estate unscathed. You saw Carmichael earlier; his elemental ability could torch you in seconds. Added to that are my guards, Sir Steve and Grandfather, who is already a high magician. You, my dearest prince, would never leave this place alive."
