Betrayed by Blood~
The heavy knock on Cain's door sent a ripple of annoyance through him. Lydia stepped into the office, her lips pressed into a thin line.
"The king's seal is here," she announced, holding up the golden sealed scroll and passed it to him.
Cain didn't move at first, his gaze hardening. He knew it was a summons from the king—just as he had predicted. He had been expecting it ever since he heard the Richards went to him for justice or whatever it was they were searching for. His hand shot out, grabbing the scroll, but instead of opening it, he flung it across the room.
Lydia sighed internally; she too had been expecting this reaction from him after all it's Cain.
"I'm not going," he growled, "This is about the Richards."
"You can't ignore this. The king's summons—it's not something you can simply cast aside," Lydia said, walking over to where the scroll was and picked it up.
