Fear washed over her, draining the color from her face. She quickly retreated behind Kyson, gripping his suit

offered you a chance to confess. If you won't, and | find out, you'll be sent back to Izrosa permanently. Our family
does not harbor such malice.”

scare her a little,” she said, her voice breaking. “Who knew she’d try climbing out the window? If she'd just
stayed put for a while, | would've let her out after the banquet ended.” Her words, though tearful, were a clear
admission of guilt.

move on.”
