Bab 12: Chapter 12: Casino

“How should I punish you, Tristan?” I was not going to be distracted by him.

“He is about to leave for the border. You need to bid your brother farewell lest the coven council suspects anything.”

“You are good at deflecting, Tristan. I hope you saw nothing and heard nothing since you walked into the library.”

“Of course, your Majesty,” he responded.
