Chapitre 459: Chapter 118: I Believe in You

I thought about how Warren had left the palace once with me without telling anyone, and said he had done that in the past as well.

I squeezed Theo’s hand back and told both of them, “He may just need some time for himself. I wouldn’t be too concerned. Theo, why don’t you talk to the scout and I’ll see if I can find Warren?”

I gave him an understanding smile, doing my best to be supportive.

“Alright,” he said. Reluctantly, he gave me a quick kiss and left with Jake.

I let out a sigh and slowly made my way back to the palace.

A slithering sound in the leaves made me perk up my ears and I saw Perceval coming toward me. It immediately brought a big smile to my face.

“Hey, Percy! It’s been a while!”

The snake slithered right up to me and coiled around my ankles. I smiled and bent down to scratch his head. He closed his eyes and flicked his tongue at me. I imagined him smiling a little as he bobbed his head back and forth, leaning into my touch.

“I missed you too,” I giggled.
