Chapter 169: Watch Her Kingdom Fall Again

Lina could not understand the extent of human greed. Or was it even human? She heard ringing in her ears, whether it was from disbelief or detachment from the situation. 

Lina realized the world was continuing around her. Kaden was saying something to Holton. The rug was being yanked beneath her feet. Not because she was hurt by the King of Wraith's decision or the revelation about Atlantis job. But, from the history that was fated to repeat itself.

"Lina?" Holton said.

Lina jolted back to reality. She slowly blinked. Hazel was clinging to her father's leg, peering curiously up at her. Lina could feel her mouth run dry.

Hazel's large eyes were like those of the Eighth Princess. Her hesitant smile was as endearing as the Eighth Princess.
