Son of darkness

Few hours earlier in Gideon's Castle. 

"You're saying that I am totally wrong, that Gideon's aim is not to kill his brother but the other way around?" Evie narrowed her eyes at the good looking dark fae lord. 

Kione nodded, his gaze steady and seemingly so genuine that after looking at him for a long while and considering things, Evie could not help but believe his words no matter how she tried to tell herself he must be bluffing. She sighed internally, wondering if she was just one who was too kind hearted and a sucker for sob stories.

"Yes. Also… Gideon isn't after the throne. When Gavrael was still young, Gideon had deliberately made himself to be the weaker one between them both, just to make sure that the dark faes turned their attention to his younger brother." 

"Made himself out to be the weak one?" Evie echoed, her gaze questioning.
