“I want nothing to do with him,” Mason replied.
“But he’s worried you might challenge him for the family inheritance,” Maeve countered.
Maeve knew exactly what Conner was thinking, Initially puzzled by his relentless pursuit from Lentimas City to

“What if | tell him that
“It won't work.” Maeve calmly interjected.
“You didn’t choose to be bom an illegitimate child, but your mere existence threatens his position, Conner won't
tolerate any risk to his power. No matter what you say, he'll trign friendliness while plotting against you.”
Mason fell silent. He had never wanted to be entangled in this mess. All he ever wanted was to dance and
pursue his own career.

“What? Mason's dating someone?”
“Since when? And why didn’t anyone tell us?”
