Please

Adea

I gasp in surprise. I knew she had to be punished but I didn’t know the death penalty was on the table. With Shane, we had demanded he be exiled.

Being cast out as a rogue is a terrible fate but for what he had done it would have been normal for him to be executed. Even though his crime was severe he basically got a slap on the wrist.

Shane had been royalty and maybe I should have known better than to expect the same leniency but it didn’t stop my heart from dropping into my stomach. I didn’t want her to die.

Odis jumped to his feet so fast his chair clatters to the ground, his face distraught. “No!” Odis growled shaking his head.

My heart plummeting at the sight of the man who normally has his feelings under wraps lose control. Odis slammed his hand down on the table while his chest rose and fell with panic before turning to Ethan.
