Chapter Sixty Nine

Rina's pace quickened down the hall, Nathaniel held onto her hand unsure of what was going on. He felt a strange shift in his mother's mood but didn't understand what made it happen.

She spotted a staff member walking towards them.

"Please have Ronaldo meet us in the training arena, now."

"Of course, my Lady,"

Rina sped down the hall to the training area. It was the furthest part of the palace from the entrance. Her son would be far enough to not see or hear any exchange she would have to have with Tristen.

'Why the hell is he here?'

Rina feels a little on edge, the moment Damien leaves for the office Tristen shows up. She couldn't help but feel it was too much of a coincidence. Her thoughts swirled with possible answers but nothing seemed to add up. She didn't want to talk to him let alone see him.
