Chapter 248
Breakfast was more civil than Amelia anticipated with so many powerful demons in one room. Agramon had shown up to breakfast since Lucifer was there but he was silent. Amelia figured he was starting to seriously consider her offer and think more about if he wanted to become king of the north.
Once Amelia had finished eating she went off her own way from Killian and the others to meet up with Gina and Edith. She needed to visit the library, but first, she made her way to Cyrus’s room so she could walk with him to the gates to see him off.
Sometimes Amelia felt like Cyrus did not know how to take care of himself so she needed to check on him to make sure he was taking food with him before he left.
"I don’t sense him inside," Edith said when they reached Cyrus’s room. "I might be wrong-"
"No," Amelia said, knowing Edith had not sensed wrong. "He must have left already. Let’s move on to the library. I have a busy day."
Gina thought they should try searching the castle to see if Cyrus was elsewhere. "But Cyrus-"
"Will find us to say the last goodbye if he is still here in the castle. I cannot waste time looking for Cyrus when the month shall move quickly and I have issues with my cousin to think about. If you wish to search for him, so be it. I will not hold you back," Amelia said, turning around to go to the library.
Edith gave Gina a look before following behind Amelia. Gina should know to pick the Queen first. Gina had one job which was to serve the Queen and stick by her side. Edith liked Cyrus, but she was deeply annoyed by how he had distracted Amelia with his exit. Cyrus had a position many would fight to have, but he gave it up to search for a woman who was going to get herself killed in the future.
Edith looked over her shoulder when she heard Gina hustling to catch up to them. ’Good choice,’ she thought.
