Chapter 72

"The princess is escaping from the palace because of a present rumour going around she might be an heretic" King Atkinson gave a short reply trying to make it seem he wasn't really sure of what was happening.

At the mention of the word heretic, King Atkinson could tell Madam Maria immediately became interested in the conversation. Not many people knew about heretics so the king was surprised her facial expressions pointed to the fact she might have a good idea.

"Has it been confirmed If she is really one?" Madam Maria asked with interest on her face.

"It has not been officially confirmed but...." The king stopped in his conversation. He didn't know if he should trust Madam Maria with what he knows already.

'My king, I think it you time to trust me" Madam Maria pointed out as she observed the king was reluctant on telling her anything else.

"I think she is an heretic, Princess Freya confirmed it" King Atkinson finally replied almost in whispers.
