The Regent’s expression changed. ‘I see you can’t be talked to. I won’t indulge your current mood. Petulance is ugly in a child and worse in a man. If you break your toys, it is no one’s fault but your own.’

Oh fuck this man he's disgusting can he please die??

‘He said that Nicaise would make me perform before the court and it would be awful, but that if I was brave, something good might come at the end of it.’ Erasmus looked up at Damen curiously. ‘Why do you look surprised?’

Wow okay.. that's is VERY surprising

‘Your life would be a lot easier if you stopped baiting him,’ said Damen. This time coldly, flatly, ‘I told you to shut up.’

Says you 😂 look I'm realllyyyy not blaming him or anything but that is ironic

Laurent was a nest of scorpions in the body of one person. Torveld looked at him and saw a buttercup.

A perfectly accurate description i fear.

‘I think all I have to do is tell you to kneel, and you’ll do it. Without me lifting a finger to help anyone.’
‘You’re right,’ said Damen.
‘I can end this any time I like?’ said Laurent. ‘I haven’t even begun.’

Or never mind, i guess i was wrong... but that moment felt like it should've been it...

‘You would really sacrifice your pride over the fate of a handful of slaves?’ He had worn the same look on his face at the ring; he was gazing at Damen as though he was searching for an answer to an unexpected problem. ‘Why?’

I think this is the moment when Laurent started to like him... IM USING LIKE VERYYYY LOOSELY.

‘Freedom?’ said Erasmus, sounding scared for the first time. ‘Why would I want that? I cannot . . . I am made for a master.’
‘You were made for better masters than these. You deserve someone who appreciates your worth.’

Noooo..... I did not read that! wtf 😳 bitch nooo! nobody is made for a master!

Ridiculous, that he was being dragged around by the neck like an unwilling animal. It was like possessing a finely tuned instrument and using it to smash shells open. Misusing it. He should be in Akielos, where his training would be fêted and prized.

Brother!!! OMG he doesn't see... shouldn't he idk have a different protective now that he lived that life? This is insane ALL of them are insane.

‘You look like a whore.’ The soft words barely stirred the air by Damen’s ear, inaudible to anyone else. Laurent murmured: ‘Filthy painted slut. Did you spread for my uncle the way you did for Kastor?’
Damen recoiled violently, and gold paint smeared.
.... ‘Witness the slave’s behaviour for yourself. Uncle, you wrong me cruelly.'

Oh my God!!! What a manipulative bastard 😳

‘Damianos, the dead Prince of Akielos,’ said Laurent. ‘The man who killed my brother.’

WAIT!! does he know?? Bcuz it feels like he know and it would kinda explain wtf just happened 😶 NOT EXCUSE!! just explain
