\u201cWere you dominated by darkness?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI saw what darkness did to our father, our sister, and everyone who was in contact with it. I didn\u2019t want to end up the same way.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou didn\u2019t want power?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cA power that dominates you, instead of you dominating it, seems useless to me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m surprised you think that way.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI just want to return to the kingdom of Laios and fix the mess our family created, and be a good\u00a0<\/p>\n

Abril looked directly into Enzo\u2019s eyes, and as she did, she could see he wasn\u2019t lying.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought you were more wicked. I\u2019m surprised to see that\u2019s not the case.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not good, I\u2019ve done very bad things to try to win my father\u2019s favor, but that\u2019s no longer necessary, although I don\u2019t think Cira will relinquish the throne so easily.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd what do you plan to do?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Enzo took out a dagger, balanced it in his hand, and replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n
+25 Points\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll kill her if I get the chance, or maybe she\u2019ll kill me. I don\u2019t know, but there\u2019s a chance she might come after you first, and then I won\u2019t have to worry about anything.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril knew that as long as Cira was free, she couldn\u2019t be completely safe, but she didn\u2019t want to think about it, so she stood up and said to him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI must go.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you going back to Cosset?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, I\u2019m going back now. What about you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll return to Laios, clean up the kingdom, and send you a letter when I need your help to seal the rift that connects to Hades.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril headed to the door, before leaving she said to him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI hope what you\u2019ve said is true, and you\u2019re not plotting anything.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can be confident that what I\u2019ve said is true.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril opened the door, and before she crossed it, Enzo said to her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBy the way, Duke Vampel is being controlled by the darkness. Kill him or do as you seem fit.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThanks for letting me know.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As she left the room, Maya and Cassian asked her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you okay? Did he do anything to you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t worry, I\u2019m fine. Let\u2019s go home.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
