Bab 714: Cannot Be Held Responsible

Lennox sprinted down the corridors of the palace, his breath coming in short, frantic gasps. The news he bore was urgent, and it needed to reach King Oberon without delay.

It was the news of Elena's death. 

Elena's death was not just a mere incident—it was a spark that could ignite a war in the Fae realm. He had to deliver the news personally, ensuring the King understood the gravity of the situation.

It wasn't until he approached the kings chambers that he slowed, caught his breath and tried to compose himself. No matter what, he had to look in control in front of the king. 

Done, Lennox pushed the doors open with a sense of dread, prepared to deliver the grim tidings, only to halt at the unexpected sight before him. Lennox found Theodore, the Spring Prince, already in the room.

He stood there rigid and pale-faced by the king's side and from the way both sets of eyes turned towards him, it was clear they had already received the news.
