Chapter 314: Intrusive Thoughts
Chapter Three Hundred-Fourteen – Intrusive Thoughts
Sorren knew what to say and do to make sure the King didn’t grow an ’interest’ in him. He’d only want to kick him out of the palace and then, he’d take Laurel with him.
The King wouldn’t act adamant to keep Laurel in front of someone else. He’d try to hide his loneliness, and since Sorren didn’t care, it’d be perfect to exploit.
"I’d take Sigma with me, and Thales is still at High Moon Kingdom so it’d be no big deal." Sorren assured.
Stefan agreed, making his mind up. "I’d stay here and help you handle the problems that would arise. Cade will handle there. Don’t make trouble at High Moon."
It sounded to Sorren that his brother only wanted to work less. There’s no need to stay at High Mountains when that lazy elder was around.
"Before I forget, Thales is quite known at Damancas." Sorren turned from the table and faced his brother. "It’s known that he’s serves the Princess of Green Valleys."
It’s while asking about Thales, his informant used ’serving the Green Valleys’ Princess’ and Sorren guessed that’d be way his mother’s sister had served the Queen so it’s different from what he thought and he asked about it.
He also found out that there were no slaves in the royal palace, all maidens and servants are paid workers. It felt odd since the Kingdom was known for their slave market.
Stefan adjusted the pillow under his head. The King and Queen of Damancas cared about Laurel a lot and her issues had become their own.
"Thales offered to be her witch himself. Did they accept it just like that?" Stefan didn’t think he could make such decisions by himself.
"They had no choice. Thales is actually one of those Grand Witches, the great witches second only to the Legendary Witch." Sorren noticed his brother pause.
