Chapter 137 The King's Judgement
- Nathan led Nicholas and me into a sitting room where the King sat upon a chair. All other chairs had been pushed to the back of the room. It was clear he meant for the rest of us to stand.
- As we entered, the King narrowed his eyes in Nicholas’s direction. Nicholas lifted his chin.
- “Nathan, I believe I was clear in my orders that Piper arrive alone,” the King said.
