The gesture didn’t go unnoticed. Kingston’s eyes fell to my ribs and he sighed. “You know I can be as stubborn as you are.”
“I need you to give him one of the Elevated Warriors’ quarters,” I ordered, ignoring his remark. “I want him in the same hall as you.”
When his nostrils flared, I knew I had done it. “He cannot be in the same place where your highest warriors rest. That is outrageous!”
“And yet I asked you to do it.” I raised a obstinate eyebrow at him, challenging him.

He does not belong there, Evanna. He hasnotearned it.”
“I need him with you, Kingston,” I pleaded, sighing. “I need you to train him yourself. I can't trust anyone else but you with him, because he is not a regular man… not by any means.”

“Tell me everything that happened.”
