Capítulo 70: Still jealous?

"The messengers are here," Saul said. 

Malachi knew they would come sooner or later. His mother looked worried but Malachi stepped outside to meet them. He knew they would want to cause a scene and turn his people against him. 

People gathered around the three messengers as they waited for him. Where was Ravina? He detected her scent from a distance and his eyes searched for her. He found her riding down the hill with Aaron. She smiled a little as she spoke to him. 

Was that a genuine smile? It was a bit different than the sarcastic, mocking, cold, or forced smiles that he was used to. 

Aaron looked ahead and realized what was happening as he neared. A frown settled between his eyebrows and he looked for him in the crowd. Malachi gave him a nod to come before going to face the messengers.
