    “Let’s spread a rumor, Jenice. Let’s tell people that Charlotte has holy powers. Then people will come asking for her to heal them, right? How can she refuse? She’s the mistress of the North. If she keeps using her powers, she’ll die early!”a306b2fa8abfa7a9

    Lorencia tilted her acd770ea1d head, not understanding.78d5ecf29dc18ccd

    “Do you really think the northern nobles didn’t know? Some of them probably figured it out. But they pretended not to know because they knew Charlotte would be in danger. And the people of the North are no different from the nobles. They’re closed off and stick together.”816b34ebf9c0acc4

    His cold words and 6ae83d40a4 the emotions swirling in 4f8b5cca4a his eyes made my cf844f1cf4 heart tighten. Cassius bit his 4708d109a4 lip, clearly worried a71dee08d1 about me.

    Think about you first…? I slowly blinked. I still believed I had to show that I was useful here. No matter how much I exchanged feelings with Cassius, that wouldn’t change. The reason Cassius started looking at me differently was because I treated Theo.f86ba2f2012ce8a0
