"So…" Dain began, turning ale into the wooden cup. He dropped the jug on the table and turned to Nyssa—half naked on his bed. "...Lady Raven."
Nyssa glared at him showing her obvious distaste for that name. It was a reality she didn't want to accept.
Seeing Isadora sitting on Kraven's lap while he acted like he couldn't get enough of her only fueled her bloodlust. She did everything to mask it up and not go berserk.
That girl was becoming more of a disease and a thorn in her side.
"He's taking her on a silent mission," Nyssa voiced her concern.
"A silent mission? Is that what the council meeting was about?"
"And her debut as LadyRaven."
Dain stiffened upon hearing those words, realizing the reason Nyssa was more irritated than usual.
"He wants to take down the Serpents. He chose her instead," she said through clenched teeth, just thinking about it got her pissed.
"The Serpents? The famous Huntsmen?"
"They are the five Court puppets."
