“It’s not just that,” Justus said. “There’s something even more important.”
“There’s more?”
I stiffened instantly. “Don’t tell me you came back because of that woman, Mia.”
I had become overly sensitive to that name, afraid that even my third brother would end up just like big brother—completely blinded.
Justus clicked his tongue in disdain.
“Who would bother with her?”
“Then what is it?” I pressed.
“Hoyles publicly announced online that he’s taking disciples. I want to apprentice under him.”
I immediately pulled out my phone. Ever since the fire, I hadn’t paid attention to anything online, so my information was completely outdated.
I opened Hoyles’s account. The pinned post was indeed about taking disciples.
Hoyles:
I have good news for everyone—I’m taking disciples.
Just one
