Chapter 122

It was a hideout for some of my men whenever we were planning an invasion. I believe Sapphire was the only female that knew about the hideout. After my curse…” his voice trailed off.
• The topic of his curse wasn’t one he was very comfortable talking about. What if I’d been insensitive in going off at him like that? Was I wrong wanting him to trust me when I didn’t completely trust him? I discarded the thought as soon as it came. He’d had many months to tell me about it, but chose to play me instead.

I had no reason to believe he’d go against my orders since he’s had a record of continuous obedience, so I didn’t bother double-checking. An underground hideout was the least of my worries,” he finished, pulling away from the table and walking to the window behind his desk.
