1. His Real Face

MORGANA

“It hasn’t been long.” I said, strangely calm as I stared at him. “You knowing I was here. Might have been the first alarm bell…”

“Wrong, you are third in line after Azrael!” I growled, my eyes flashing and my heart thundering at the very thought that my nephew may be targeted.

“You really are so innocent.” He said, reaching over, he caressed my cheek.

I smacked his hand away, glaring at him.
