Chapter 41: Madness

LEANDRA'S POINT OF VIEW

The gossip has gone too far. In just over an hour, the whole Kingdom panicked and some fell scared right after they knew what happened inside. I remained where the other was, beside me were Kahlila and Lily, another servant I just met today. 

The royal guards were focused on the royal family and that including Lady Kaylee from the Kingdom Peninsula. I don't know whether to feel irritated because beside her was my master or just completely drift my eyes away from them so a small portion of joy in my body would still remain inside and surpass the bitterness I feel. 

"Did you go out with Master Vesarius?" Kahlila suddenly asked. 

I shook my head as an answer. "No, I was in the garden earlier and he found me there. Actually, he saved me…" 

Her eyes widened. "He saved you from what?" 

"From an assassin, I think?" I hesitatingly asked.
