Chapter 270: Getting Away
Ezekiel suddenly quickly moved out of the bed.
"What’s wrong?" Katelina asked, noticing him hurriedly putting his trousers back on.
"I have to go back to the celebration. Asura and Cora are on their way here to accompany you," Ezekiel said with a reassuring smile.
"Kiel," she called, giving him a look that demanded more details.
"Remember Levi’s vision about the rider of the black dragon? He felt the same ominous presence at the party," he explained. "I’ll look into it and be back soon."
Katelina was lost for words. She opened and closed her mouth, but no sound came out. As soon as Asura knocked, Ezekiel kissed her forehead and quickly left.
Her face reddened when Asura entered with a teasing smile. Realizing she was still naked, Katelina quickly covered herself with the sheet.
Asura chuckled. "Hmm, His Majesty can’t get enough of you," she said, adding, "Let me prepare you a warm bath."
Asura walked to the chest to get her a nightgown, but Katelina firmly said, "Get me a gown I can wear to the party. I will return and join the celebration."
It was time for her to muster her courage and overcome her past. She wanted to help Ezekiel in this hunt. She had already remembered her power. Though she might have lost the ability to see through the past and future, she was not weak. She had the powerful blood of a dragonrider flowing through her veins, which she could put to great use, along with her abilities in magic and spellcasting.
"Are you sure about this? Just a while ago..." Asura murmured.
