"What happened to Elder Luzia?!" Governor Daniel barked at Kaelos and me when we managed to escape to the lobby.
The lobby was dimly lit despite it being morning but red alarm lights were going off. A television screen at the corner showed a local news report with "Breaking News".
"The city has been placed under lockdown for no apparent reason other than a possible security breach." The female journalist spoke with a pensive expression. "Citizens are panicking since this comes not even twenty-four hours after the arrival of the Alpha King and his hybrid wife."
Hybrid wife?
I shook my head, swallowing hard and panting a little, trying to catch my breath as my mind reeled with Luzia's sacrifice. There was no doubt Leticia was her student or someone she cared about.
Luzia had struck me as a cold, calculated leader but it seemed she had a soft side. She was hoping to get through to Leticia and probably break the raven witch's possession.
