Chapter 28 - Blade

Prince Luke's answer caught me off guard. "Excuse me?!" my brows knitted in confusion and surprise.

"I don't know if you've heard about the stories our elders had passed onto about red haired and sapphire eyed witches. They are powerful and capable of taking control over a person's mind" he explained.

"And am I supposed to believe in it? We have no valid evidence of such happenings!"

"We can test it!" Those words angered me a little and I became defensive. "She's too weak to make her try something which might not even be legit!" I tried to keep the anger in my tone as low as I could to not come off as extremely rude to the young prince.

"Well, we don't have much time on our hands, Lord Blade. We need to prepare ourselves and if Flora can succeed in casting spells, we're guaranteed a definite win!" Prince Luke said. "If my wife, who's carrying my child, can help us out, then so can Flora!" he added.

It took everything in me to not lash out on the prince for comparing the two females.
