Bab 183: Mystery Meeting

Skender was suddenly trembling with anger. He needed to leave. Rising from his seat he just walked away leaving her behind. 

"Wait! Your… I mean… Alexander!" 

He froze in place unsure of what he had heard. Slowly he turned around and found her flinched and shrunken where she stood with eyes displaying fear. She had just called him by his name, so she had every right to be fearful. 

"My apologies." She hurried to say rubbing her hands together in a nervous manner. 

Skender had wished to hear his name from her lips but not like this. Not in a fearful manner. It didn't sound the same. What was he trying to do? Unless he decided to make her his queen, she couldn't call him by his name. Never. That would be as stupid as coming here to steal. 

He would have to send her away before anyone found out about her disguise or he would have to compel a lot of people to save her life, if that even worked. No one was going to take her disguise lightly.
