But just as the brothers were about to return to their lodgings, Horan suddenly approached them after settling Kinley in.
"Father!" Cecil was absolutely prepared to accuse his brother the moment he saw daddy.
However, Horan had caught the annoyance on Cecil's face and spoke before he could. "Come with me, Angora—I have something to tell you. Cecil, return to your keep."
Cecil's menacing air faded as he was left gaping.
At the same time, Angora slid Cecil a look before going after Horan.
As Cecil watched his father and little brother disappear from a corner, his eyes became an almost solid darkness.
"If none of you would give it to me, I shall take it for myself…" He growled, cracking his neck before turning, and headed back to his castle without so much of a look behind.

Angora followed Horan into his private study.
