"Scholar? You and I know that is just a formality. When did you become interested in books? Little Ravyn?"
Ravyn chuckled nervously.
I cleared my throat, grabbing their attention back to me.
"You still haven't told me why you're here and with the human."
Tsk! She's ignoring me again.
"I'm a member of her court."
The Dowager's expression morphed into shock. She took one look at me and then back at Ravyn, hoping for some joke.
"What are you talking about? Your family has never supported the crown!"
"Well... Your Majesty. The princess here did a good job bringing me to her side."
I froze at her words, giving her a side eye. That was a lie! It was Drevon who convinced her to come to my side, not me.
