Skender was getting his hair combed when Roxana came into his chambers. He turned to her with a smile but the look on her face made his smile fade away. 

'Do you know what I am thinking right now, Your Majesty?' He heard her thoughts while her mouth remained curved into a twisted smile. 

Oh, she found out. Bloody Blayze. Skender dismissed the maid. Once the door closed behind her, Skender thought of explaining himself but Roxana held her hand up to stop him. 

"Don't say anything." She warned. "Do you have your sword nearby?" 

"I know you prefer a fight but remember, I am a demon." 

"Then I won't go easy on you. Pick up your sword or die." 

He stood up from his seat with a sigh. "I don't have my sword." 

"You have claws." She said and then drew her sword.
