POV The Emperor, James
I had received a strange call from Caedrel, telling me about a video in which he was using his powers to their full extent. I had to admit that I was quite doubtful he had been pushed into such a situation, but when I saw the video, I had no choice but to agree with him.
He truly had been using all of his powers. This also meant that I now had something I could potentially hold over Caedrel's head for as long as I wished—something I could finally use against him, after all this time.
If he was desperate enough to call me, making sure I would fix the situation, then he was bound to be pretty nervous over this whole thing.
In a few minutes, I would have my meeting with the Patriarch of the Evergreen Family, and I couldn't wait to see how things would go.
Sure enough, a few moments passed by, and someone was knocking on my door.
Knock!
Knock!
Knock!
