Chapter 78 Leaving For Badosa

• Lucy’s POV
• Not that I owed anyone an explanation, but I felt I had to tell Kenneth the truth. He sat on my bed, eyes fixed on me. I couldn’t sit down, but I didn’t feel intimidated by his glare either. I met his gaze and he asked, “Why did you feel the need to keep the truth from me, even though I was there when the Prophet in my kingdom said you weren’t human?”
• I could have asked him what gave him the right to know that, but I didn’t want to start a fight. Lance had made it clear—we needed to get our things and leave. King Pontione had already called the dean to freeze our scholarships so we could come back and finish whenever we could.
