The Tiger Within Chapter 221

"No . He actually treats me quite well . I think he may actually be one of the good ones . " Kyera admitted glancing over at Talis to see his response . The boy seemed skeptical, and after everything she really couldn't blame him for feeling that way . After everything their people had gone through, he had every right to be less than trusting of the humans .

"I see . Do you . . . are you backing him?" Talis asked, well aware that it was nearly time for the Emperor trials to begin . Kyera's eyes darkened a bit as she considered the other candidates for the position . Everything she had learned while at the palace had convinced her of a few things .

"If The First or Third prince achieve the throne there will be dark days ahead . The second Prince, Alexi… I don't know . I have had a few very interesting encounters with him . He is the least troublesome and cruel of the brothers as far as I can tell . Clovis… I think he would be a good Emperor . " Kyera replied carefully . She hadn't given it much thought besides that Clovis was the only humane seeming one out of the group .

"Alright . I trust your judgement . What do you plan to do?" Talis asked watching the pair ahead of him, wondering if these two were going to cause trouble in the future . They both posed a threat to Kyera… he just prayed they wouldn't become one he would have to tend to himself .

"To be honest, Come home and take back the lead so we can continue to rebuild peacefully . I need to break the contract, and I am hoping that I will be able to put Clovis on the throne while I am at it . That way we have an ally on the throne . I know that Raina has a positive view on our kind, so she might be the key to improving the life of our people . " Kyera offered, finally admitting this to someone other than herself . She had many hopes for that little girl and all of them were big . The hope that she would one day help increase the acceptance of her people was fleeting, but in her heart she knew this child would do great things .

"I see . You need to break that contract before you can come home . Do you have any leads as to how it works? I know they can be difficult? Where you able to minimulate it as we discussed before?" Talis asked, remembering the conversation in the bazaar . Kyera shook her head a dark look pa.s.sed over her face .
