Ezekial’s POV
I took Gemma’s hand and walked out of the banquet hall and through the cedar doors to the front of the castle. I don’t know how Elizabeth and Kyle do it. Able to read people’s minds even with something in place to stop them. They have more self-control than I give them credit for.
I did learn people still don’t trust me, not that I blame them. The things I did, even if they weren’t entirely my doing, if I was in their position, I wouldn’t trust myself either. The people I do need to trust me do it wholeheartedly. At least that is the impression I got. ‘Why are we going for a walk?’ “Because there are more lessons to be taught”, I tell Gemma, who stops to glance at me confused. “You didn’t actually ask, did you?”
“In my head, I did” she answered, and I let out a long breath
