Bab 188: The Road to Hell Part II

It took every ounce of inner strength Heidi could muster within herself not to lash out at the man seated in front of her. She might not have known for certain that Luitpold was the one who had orchestrated the hit on her mother, but she was aware he was a von Wittelsbach and the current acting head of the ancient dynasty.
