Kapitel 203: Chapter 203

"I need to learn more before you need to leave. I have been doing well with reading small words but my writing isn't good. I have to practise making it pretty. Alexander has helped me with a map and in exchange, I have made him join my lessons with my mother," said Rose.

"Hmm." 

Zayne was not interested in what concerned Alexander. Why was he still sticking to Rose's family when it was time he left to be on his own? "How long will he be staying with you? I don't have room on my ship for him."

Rose couldn't recall Alexander speaking of wanting to sail with her. She also didn't recall what his plans for the future were now that the palace was taken over by Zayne's people. "I don't think he wants to sail. He might not be a soldier again. I should ask him."

"Why? Would you stop him from leaving?" Zayne asked.
