"I don't think anything can shock me anymore," I said, my voice flat, emotionless.
I meant it—or at least, I thought I did.
Tris stared at me with an amused glint in her eyes, her lips curling into a knowing smile that made me feel like I'd just walked into a trap.
"Well, I'm sure you're already aware that Johanne was actually a woman to begin with, right?" she said casually, like she was talking about the weather.
I kept my face still, expression unreadable, but inside, a flicker of surprise pulsed through me.
That... wasn't what I expected her to say. Not from her. Not like this, at least.
"When did you find out?" she asked, voice light but laced with curiosity.
"During the King's Game," I answered honestly. There was no point in lying.
But the how—the actual circumstances of me finding out—that was something I'd be keeping to myself.
Her eyes widened just slightly, and she let out a small chuckle.
