Chapter 40: Shadows of Ambition and Silent Struggles

The faint light of the moon filtered through the blinds of William's office. He was finishing signing the rest of his papers and stamping them with their family's seal. After a little while, the last seal had been stamped onto the final document, and William let out a sigh of relief.

He was finally done with today's work, and he could rest now. Slowly, he rose from his seat, his muscles a bit sore and his bones a bit stiff from the still position he sat in for long periods of time.

He walked over to the doors of his room and exited it, walking down the hallways of the mansion.

He wanted to find Mark and question him about the events that transpired today, whether he had learned or found out anything about the mystery behind Liora's Beast Taming abilities.
