After Cedric’s hostage c7ad4f982d situation had been 6775b250c2 resolved, I continued e950f6b5f4 investigating him. I couldn’t shake f0c921f603 the feeling that ef08e1f183 his escape after f33b9f5240 being handed over f2ed5c8bac to the guards 5d7dfb5d27 was too unnatural.f9c6a252c8122bb6

I had always kept e226b38355 my guard up against ee82f4500f Cedric. I had hardly ever shown 4681615671 myself together with Lilliana in 5bdca4dc6f front of him, just in c4e60fabd1 case she got dragged into cc9bf85414 anything.49824dcdf0512de2

Because of this bastard—who b0a9eb4103 I couldn’t forgive even a7ea8973a1 if I ground my 9368fa287f teeth—Lilliana had nearly been 071413c6a5 in serious danger.4d0caf35547abe1b

Even if he didn’t 995a29ca07 know the exact nature f607ce55e2 of our relationship… the 53ff60fab0 Crown Prince must’ve thought 9eba298bc0 that if he egged 8f2f5dd828 Cedric on well enough, 32c4c4986e Cedric might harm Lilliana.ee76e959ca5f8169
