?Chapter 3272 Untold Secrets (Part 1)

"No!" Kamila, Salaark, and Leegaain said. The first one in embarrassment and the other two in outrage.

"Just yesterday, Lith and I received a report warning me that the bounty on my head is still in place. Hence we assumed that as soon as the news of Lith going away with most of his allies spread, someone would try to kill me. It's the reason we... mixed business and pleasure."

"That's a self-serving way to put it, to use an understatement." Leegaain scoffed. "You two manipulated us Guardians. Plain and simple."

"As much as it pains me to say this, I agree with the old lizard." Salaark grunted. "You exploited our vow to protect Lith's children and the woman who bears them to solve your problems at our expense. Shame on you, Featherling."

"Couldn't you stop them?" Zinya tilted her head in confusion.

"Stop a couple from expressing their love? Preposterous!" Leegaain scoffed.

"Then if this situation angers you, why did you intervene?"

"And let our grandchild get hurt?" The Guardians stared at Zinya as if she was the worst nutcase on Mogar. "I'd rather raze Garlen to the ground than let that happen."

"Okay, you have lost me." She sighed. "You are making no sense."

"Love rarely does, child." Salaark chuckled.

"Wait, this is why you wanted to go to the Gardens of Saefel and pray!" Zinya said. "You didn't want the First Queen's blessing, you wanted to bait your enemy into attacking." "Actually, I wanted both." Kamila replied. "I wish that Tyris protects Lith but I'd be lying if I said I didn't hope for an ambush."

"This doesn't make sense." Zinya said. "If you knew there was no actual danger to you and the baby, why did you ask Kigan and me to attend your audience with the Royals?"

"Because once my pregnancy is revealed, no one will dare make a move against me. Not after what happened the first time." Kamila sighed. "I had no idea the assassins would take us to an isolated place or that they would be so strong.

"I assumed that Kigan would have dealt with them effortlessly and no one would have suspected I'm pregnant again. This is why no one in the Blood Desert has celebrated the event yet.

"No one can know what happened here today, Zin. If anybody asks, say that Grandma assigned me a Phoenix as bodyguard and he Warped us to safety. We never met the Griffons."

The two women discussed for a while, agreeing on the details of the events that had allegedly unfolded and preparing answers for the most likely questions that would follow

their explanation.

"There is no margin for mistakes, Zin." Kamila said after they got their stories straight. "We need to hide the involvement of Kigan and the Guardians. As long as my pregnancy remains a secret, our enemies will keep considering me Lith's weak point.

"With a bit of luck, Meln might be the next to try and kill me."

A quick call to the Royal Palace and Salaark guaranteeing Kamila's version of the events put an end to the emergency search and solved the mystery of the disappearance of the two women.

The Griffons had done a good job covering their tracks and the Royal Guards had found no trace of the Awakened who had Warped Kamila and Zinya to the site of the ambush.

Meanwhile, far away in Jiera, in the middle of a deadly battle against a lost city, the Undead King felt a shiver run down his spine. A cold sweat covered his body as death offered him an invisible cigar and patted his shoulder.
