[Kane’s POV]
I liked to think of myself as a traditional sort of man.
The sanctity and authority that came with the Venmer family name was my sole responsibility to uphold, above all else. What many people in the Royal Court persistently overlooked was that the High House of Venmer held a lot more power and sway than most.
Because of our geographical location, we were the sole barrier that kept those ungodly creatures from ravaging the rest of the region. My ancestors always believed that our family deserved more recognition for the fact.
For most of my life, I was brought up with the mentality that we would one day rule the region the way that arrogant Lucian Thorne. Hell, there was a brief moment in which I could have sworn that his father was going to hand us over the throne.
