Chapter 335: Fallen angels
VALENCIA’S POV
"Is it done?" I asked, finally standing from my place.
I waited for someone to object. However, everyone had the same helpless expression on their faces. And why not? They had nothing to counter our words. We beat them to it, fair and square.
’You did well,’ I said to Maverick, who raised his eyebrows.
’Well, thank you, my lady, for the appreciation. Can I look forward to some reward from my Highness?’ Maverick said meticulously, and I chuckled at his words inwardly.
I know exactly what kind of reward he was talking about.
As I sighed, I saw someone standing from the corner of my eyes and couldn’t help but smirk.
Right. That was exactly what I was wondering about. How come the whole thing passed without anyone trying to attack me? How come they took my position without retaliating?
I saw Shadow gazing at the person, too, but I told Maverick I wanted to deal with this myself. He ordered Shadow to stay in his place and let the person reach me.
I sat leisurely, waiting for the person to think they were slick and could sneak closer to me without being noticed. Seeing the harm blade peeking from their pocket, my gaze turned dark as Aurora stood from her place.
’No blood,’ I reminded Aurora, who rolled her eyes but nodded nonetheless.
