Chapter 797 Who Is He?
- Silas and I watch the architect move to the railing to stand between us in silence. There’s something about him that unnerves me. His face is familiar. Carved from stone I’ve seen before. The high cheekbones and the regal, straight nose. The shape of the eyes… I’ve seen them somewhere, but the color is all wrong.
- The Architect turns his face to look at me. I stare, not bothering to hide it, and he sighs as he rolls his eyes back to the arena, to the open exit.
- “There will be a meeting,” he says to us, his voice low. “Kaleb will be called before the king. It’s a distraction to get Lexa alone. She will be taken from the Glade and separated from Kaleb.” I stiffen, and Silas turns, but the man continues, “Silas, you must return to the Highwoods until next week. Lexa will stay at your house starting tomorrow morning. As long as she’s not in the Glade, the king’s plan will not come to fruition.”
