Silas stared at the door, and once he was certain we were alone, his expression softened.

“Asher, I don’t think this is a good idea,” he reiterated to me quietly. “I know he’s your brother, but I don’t think he should play the part of king. What if he betrays us or plays some kind of trick-

trick could he play?” I questioned my Beta.
