Standing by the window of his chambers, Henry watched the rain pour from the heavens, his thoughts tangled and restless.
He still could not comprehend the news.
Leonard had kidnapped Lannae?
No matter how many times he replayed the accusation in his mind, it refused to make sense. The two had never been particularly close, but Leonard had always protected her whenever he could. To believe that he would suddenly abduct his own sister was difficult.
"What should I do?" he whispered.
His warm breath fogged the glass for a brief moment before fading away.
How was he supposed to bring his sister back?
No guards answered to him. No knights waited for his command. If he marched into the courtyard and demanded a search party, most of the soldiers would likely laugh behind his back the moment he turned away.
A bitter sigh escaped his lips.
He truly was a useless prince.
