CASSANDRA
As Ronald continued to study me. I knew I had to come up with an answer to his question quickly, so without skipping a beat, I flashed him a kind smile and then offered a polite explanation.
“The king simply told me that he was in need of a healer, I said. “So he invited me to come back with him to Yurene”
Ronald raised a dark eyebrow in surprise and tilted his head slightly, a typical gesture in this palace, from what I’d gathered
“And you agreed, just like that?” he wondered.
I nodded right away to keep any suspicions at bay. My answers were lies, but what else could I say? I figured that Ronald was probably a well-respected figure here in Vlokwell, but I knew there was likely something tricky between him and Kaleb. As much as I wanted to get some useful information from Ronald needed to ensure I was safe before going any further.
So, until I could figure out this strange but polite man’s intentions, I needed to remain vague and guarded.
Ronald didn’t seem to believe me and studied me for a little while longer before releasing a light sigh. Before I could offer something more, he walked over to a bench nearby and rooted through a metal toolbox that sat in the middle. He retrieved a pair of secateurs and turned back to me
“Which color do you like the most?” he asked me, and when I frowned at him in confusion, he gestured at the plants. “The flowers. Which color do you like the best?”
“Oh.” I remarked, and then I glanced around at the variety of blooms around us. I noticed a small section of ivory roses. Their petals were a perfect shade, cream with a faint hint of pink, and they were very beautiful. I pointed to them. “I like
those ones there.”

Ronald nodded and then approached the bush. He used the pruning shears to cut off a few of the flowers and then carefully trimmed the thorns from their stems before handing them to me:
“Thank you,” I said as I accepted the flowers, and I held them up to my nose and inhaled deeply. Though this was all very strange and at least a little awkward, the roses smelled wonderful, and it was a kind thing for him to do.
“Of course,” he remarked, and his soft blue eyes stared into mine intensely. “I can see why Kaleb is interested in you. You’re
very kind”
Heat spread to my cheeks as embarrassment swept over me. I understood that people would easily assume that Kaleb would have a crush or infatuation with me and that those feelings would be a reasonable cause for him to bring me here. But it couldn’t be further from the truth
“Dit ista’t ike that, I muttered before I could stop myself. “Between us, I mean.”
“Is that sor Ronald asked, and his lips curled into a smile. “Interesting I had thought Kaleb changed He’s never brought a female back to Vlok well with him I supposed that he felt something for you.”
“I understant, but you’re mistaken, I replied shonly, and then forced myself to smile The king has no feelings for me Between us. I think he probably overestimated my medal abilities, but i couldn’t deny his offer I was tired of living in Wegalla and the fluought of traveling somewhere new sounded lovely I was ready to move on and try something new.

Ronald laughed lightly and then smirked. “I know what you mean. Change can always be refreshing Besides. I know m cousin well. He has always been a domineering person, and I’m sure it was difficult to decline his offer. But now that he’s returned. I’ve noticed something different about him. I suspected that he liked you.”
“Something different?” I wondered, and I frowned in confusion
Ronald nodded and then glanced at the roses
“Did you know that roses are the symbol of love and passion?” he asked, and then he continued before I could answer. These are two things that Vlokwell is lacking. My cousin as well. But when you two were dancing in the banquet hall. swore I saw a trace of love and passion in his eyes”
My heart skipped a beat.
