CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY FOUR
“What is happening outside?!” Fera strides towards me when I enter the castle, dazed. “There’s such a commoti-”
Her words die down when she sees the large group following me, “Uh, what is going on, Isabel?”
“I –” My mouth is dry. “They swore fealty to me.”
I look over my shoulder at the massive group. Not all of them followed me but a majority did.
“You had the creatures of the demon realm swear fealty to you?” Fera gapes at me.
“I – I’m sorry?” I feel just as confused. “I swear I didn’t mean to.”
“I’m not – I’m not asking you to apologize. But how is this possible? The creatures of this land respect the Righ but they’ve never sworn fealty to her before.”
“Maybe it’s because of Damien’s situation,” I murmur.
But Fera isn’t paying any attention to me, her lips moving and it takes me a moment to realize that she is counting.
