Chapter 16

Ronald's POV 

"Y-you...!"

"What!? Father-" I catch him just when he charges forward to latch onto the caged, chained witch. She snarls at the king, who equally growls back at her vengefully.

Oh I wonder...

"Father, please calm down!"

And he does calm down. There's a fire in his eyes as they look at her with rage I still don't have an idea about.

"Get me out of here, wolf!" she barks, and I simply ignore her petty request.

"Father, do you know her?"

"Yes."

Interesting...

"How though?"

"She was Jane's friend." he says. I grow more confused but stay patient to hear out to him.

"She-"

"I DID NOTHING!" The wolf-witch interrupts the king. He takes in deep breaths to calm himself down and I honestly appreciate that. I've never seen this side of the King before. He's agitated, raging, and looks like he's about to snap any moment and behead the witch himself.

"Can you read my mind?"
