My Best Friend Stole My Royal Boyfriend

Chapter 28

“What did you say?” Sir William asks to confirm his earlier words; even I’m not sure that I heard correctly.

“I will help train her,” Adam announces once more in front of the classroom, speaking

louder this time.

Everyone is shocked by his interference. Why would he offer to train me? None of the elders would feel comfortable with a dark whisperer training the flaming whisperer.

“I don’t think that’s such a good idea…” Sir Williams begins to protest, proving my point.

Adam shoots him a glare, and he shuts his mouth, clearly intimidated by him. “I know more about the flaming whisperer than anyone inside of here. I’ve read countless books, plus ! think I know how to awaken the fire inside of her. She can’t do this on her own; she needs me.”

I swallow; I do need him, I don’t want to, but I do. I can’t explain how I know this, but I know that he’s speaking the truth. There is more to Adam and me, more than anyone knows; I can feel it deep inside. What was I missing? What did no one tell me? There was a missing piece to this puzzle. It couldn’t be as simple as a flaming whisperer and dark whisperer being each other’s destruction. I knew that Adam wasn’t the best person out there, but I also knew that he wasn’t that evil; he wouldn’t destroy our world. How could one person do that on his own? There was so much that I didn’t know, and Adam may be the only one to give me these answers. Even though I knew that training with him wasn’t the most brilliant idea considering my feelings for him, this may be the only way for me to awaken my power.

“None of you here believed in her, not even once; you didn’t want her to take part in the festival; some of you still have zero faith in her. Amiera may have forgotten this, but I haven’t.” He points out; everyone looks down in shame. They should feel ashamed, contrary to what Adam thinks; I didn’t forget; I just chose not to say anything. I hated confrontations so much; I’ve always felt safer just avoiding them and moving on with my life.

“Let me help her.” He adds. Of course, no one here would oppose this when they all either feared or worshipped Adam.

Sir Williams sighs, “I’m aware of the fact that you are not looking for my permission; you’ll do it with or without it. This isn’t my decision to make, but rather, Amiera should be the one to

answer you.”
