120 The Criminal Runs Free

Freya woke in the king's chambers to the sound of Sebastian voice.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and turned her body to lay on her back.

He had the door cracked open slightly and was talking with Langdon in a hushed voice, but she could tell that he was angry.

"How did this happen?" Sebastian tried to suppress his anger, "Are the guards imbeciles?"

"He used a weapon to attack the guard and steal the keys, some kind of tiny blade," Langdon explained, "The guards are currently searching the whole castle but it's possible that he has already escaped."

"Who escaped?" Freya appeared beside the king, clutching a white cotton sheet that was wrapped around her body.

Sebastian pushed her behind the door and glared, "Give me a moment Freya."

"Did Tallon escape?" she asked in disbelief.

"Yes," Sebastian huffed an annoyed breath, and grabbed his shirt.

"Well where are you going?" Freya stumbled, and almost tripped on the long sheet.

"I need to go sort this out."
