"I'm just saying." Alice raised an eyebrow at her brother. "It's really not a good look for a prince to get eliminated by a girl. Twice. You lost to Zynx too during the Team Test, didn't you?"
Willem narrowed his eyes at his sister, who couldn't stop laughing at his expense. It was a comical sight, considering one of his eyes was swollen black. "I don't want to hear anything from a turntail! You left me all alone with that crazy girl! I was begging you to take me with you!"
"Not my fault you're slow," Alice grinned, leaning back against the settee. "A good strategist knows when a tactical retreat is necessary. I had to cut my losses."
