Chapter 23
A Clash of Fire and Ice
ALERIC.
The school day is almost over, and I couldn’t have been more elated today, and it is not because the day is done, but because of some good news. It was shortly after lunch when I had received a message, one I now look down at again. A message from Skyla- or should I say LuciferessX.
I scan the messages we exchanged with a smug smile on my face.
LuciferessX: Fine. Let’s meet. I hope you’re ready to make it up to me, because I’m still angry, Reign.
Reign2.0: Absolutely. Name the time and place and I’ll be there.
LuciferessX: There’s a grill house in town, Kayoko’s. Meet me there this Sunday, at 7pm. Don’t be late. It’s your last chance…
Reign2.0: I won’t be late. I promise.
I turn the phone off and slip it back into my pocket as I make my way to River’s office. Unlike Royce, I’m far more careful with my phone and I can’t risk anyone seeing it.
Well, I’m glad that Royce was so careless. If I hadn’t spotted the message notification on her phone that day at her cottage… and recognised the name as Royce’s, this wouldn’t have been possible.
I head to his office door after the ugly secretary with good boobs announces me and step inside.
“You wanted to discuss something with me?” I ask as I shut the door behind me and take a seat opposite him.
He nods, closing the file he was viewing and joins his hands together in front of him.
“Ah, I do apologise for calling you at the end of the day. I wanted to discuss the upcoming field trip for the seniors. The king was here for the morning, so I had to cancel our lunch meeting due to that.”
I raise an eyebrow. The king had come here?
“The king was here? Today?” I ask smoothly.
How did I not know?
Rivers nods. “Yes, he wanted to talk to your brother and was there a while. He had come to finish some paperwork regarding
Kataleya Rossi, anyway since you are one of the ones who will be chaperoning the trip, I was thinking….” 1
I zone him out as he blabbers on, while I try to mask my festering rage towards Royce. He must have known the king would stop to see him… or by now he should have told father. He could have notified me! I could have had the chance to talk to the king myself and leave an impression.
He always seems to have it easier…
“Is that alright?” Rivers draws me back to the present and I nod, smiling smoothly, although I have no idea what the twit was saying.
“That’s completely fine. Send me an email too and I’ll organise everything we need to handle.” I say, not really having listened to anything he was spouting.
