Ross's POV
The doors finally opened and I ran out into the hallway that led to the throne room. Once I reach the wooden doors I stopped and knocked.
"Come in!" the warlord said through the doors.
I came into the room and disappointment hit me. Courtney wasn't there. I walked up to throne as close as he would allow. He studied my face for a second. I could feel his natural violet eyes all over me.
"You seem distressed," he said, "is this about Courtney?"
"Yes. I know she was here. Where is she now?"
"Well she asked how I knew her and after I gave a short summary she asked to be executed. I refused because she hasn't done anything wrong and had her carried out. I'm sorry but I don't know where she is now."
I know what she's doing though, I thought, she's trying to reveal what she is so she can get executed.
"Thank you for your time," I said before walking out.
As soon as I had the doors closed I ran to the elevator. I pressed the bottom button and waited impaitenly again to get to the lobby. When the doors opened I had to sneak out so no security guards would see me. I was in the darkness of the tunnel again.
