"There's something I need to do first," Anna announced to the room. She pulled back from Kai, walked over to her desk and picked up the neatly folded piece of paper. "I have somewhere to be,"
"You're going to see Leon." Kai said immediately. He hasn't spoken harshly, but his sudden tone caused Anna to flinch.
"I'll be fine," she said, avoiding their eyes.
"I'm coming with you," Kai and Ray said at the same time.
"No. I'm going alone."
"No way." Kai shot back. "What if he tries something stupid? What if you're hurt?"
"I won't be," Anna said, clenching her fist, rumpling the paper. "The whole kingdom knows I tried to kill my sister. If he tries anything then…well let's say I won't have attempted murder on my hands again."
The room fell silent. Kai and Ray exchanged worried glances.
Anna knew she had to do this. A final goodbye to Leon. And maybe a fuck you in his face too.
