Sylvia's POV:

My heart tightened. I sprang to my feet and asked, "What happened?"

Blair scowled and said in a heavy voice, "I received a notice ten minutes ago that Rufus has encountered a riot during the meeting. My mission to go out has been postponed. I have to lead the army to subdue the riot right now."

I was so agitated that I was ready to charge out instantly. Blair grabbed my arm and said, "Calm down, Sylvia. Rufus is fine. Neither the vampires, nor the black witches are involved. I think this riot was incited by an elder of the royal family. He wanted to strike a direct blow to Rufus, because his interests would be damaged if the meeting went smoothly." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
