I have to close my eyes for a second to will that image away. “I really don’t want to hear about any of your sexcapades, especially not those concerning my brother.” So much for Lex trying to tell me he’s only into women.“Anyway, she should’ve stayed in her room. We couldn’t make it in there. Those
*Kane* I make my way swiftly to my brother’s room, doing my best not to lose my cool before I get there. My hands are balled into fists, and I am doing everything I can to keep from slamming one of them into a wall. In my mind, I go over the conversation I am about to have with Lex. I am cool, cal

*Lex* I am a fool. Everyone knows that. In fact, it’s quite the topic of discussion at court. It’s a joke, really. Kane is the serious, responsible brother, and then there’s Lex, the playful, irresponsible, woman—or is it man—chasing whore who will never be able to accomplish anything of significa
When I laugh this time, it almost sounds natural because what he’s said is almost funny. “Oh, King Peter, I’m so afraid to be the one to tell you that your sweet daughter is not at all who you think she is.” His eyes narrow even further until he’s staring at me through little more than slits. “You’
