153 It Is An Honor To Be Your Friend

"I am concerned about Nico and Demetria," Ciara said with a slight divot between her brows, snapping Ira out of his thoughts. 

"I get Demetria but what about Nico?" he asked curiously. 

"He is a wild card. We do not know if he will attack the king or not. He has no magic so won't he need our help? I don't wish to be involved in an unnecessary fight but I also don't wish to see him hurt." 

Sarabeth rolled her eyes. "You guys don't notice anything, do you? He'll never listen to reason. He has a massive crush on Professor Gallagher. That's the only reason he agreed to any of this. He's going to take her word as law. If she tells him to attack the king, he'll attack the king and get burnt to a crisp in the process."

"There has to be something we can do!" Ciara insisted. "Some way we can stop him from doing that if the king doesn't turn out to be the enemy Professor Gallagher has made him out to be."
