Leon's POV
Listening to their conversation through smartphones confirmed something for me about Sesillian. First, he was keeping Charlotte's virginity intact for some reason. I knew why—or at least, I'd pieced together enough to have a good idea.
A ritual through sacrifice. That's what the guy Rose had interrogated had said. He also mentioned that the sacrifice had to be a virgin. That was the main reason, based on everything I'd gathered about Sesillian so far.
It was the easiest and most obvious conclusion, given the information I had.
