章 90: Betrayal(1)

"What did you end up doing to kill so much time?" He fell into her step and walked beside her down the corridor without asking where she was going. "Should I be worried?"

"You should. I read the book you gave me. Who knows? I might know just how to befriend a demon and use them to go against your family."

He found her words amusing. Dipping his head to reach her height, he asked, "Do you remember what you read?"
