Chapter 37
Cassius took a deep breath before entering the throne room.
He didn’t like being summoned. Aurora was struggling with the events of the past day. It was overwhelming for him as well. But he wasn’t going to let his birth right or his new found family, get in the way of being with Aurora. King Calan was waiting in the center of the room.
He was deep in conversation with someone he didn’t recognize. They were speaking in hushed tones. They stopped talking when the unknown troll saw Cassius enter the room. King Calan turned and motioned the troll away. Cassius got a strange sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach. Why was he called? The tightening in his chest told him that he wasn’t going to like the reason.
“Cassius. There is news.”
