Secrets In Savannah (Phantom Knights)
Page 25
“Your sister will not be the Queen,” Harvey said, and all of my senses stood at attention. “All it takes is for the family lines to be cut off, and the artifacts placed in one’s hands to be made King.”
He had done it. He had finally gone too far.
“You will never be King,” I spat with every ounce of fire that I had within me.
“My small minded girl, I never said I would be King. No, I have someone much better in mind.” Whoever it was, Harvey was pleased with them, but he would never see it come to fruition.
“You will never win against my sister. She has the Phantoms on her side.” I met Harvey’s icy gaze. “Jack knows,” I said, and was rewarded with a flicker of panic in Harvey’s eyes. “He knows who you are, and he is coming for you.” Slowly meeting the gaze of each of the lords, I added, “He is coming for all of you, and you may be sure that he will not stop until he has destroyed every layer of the Order.”
All eyes turned to Harvey, searching for his reaction, waiting for his order.
“I do believe that Jack Martin has outworn my patience.”
With each spoken word from the moment that he threatened my sister, my fury rose. There was no panic left within me, for Harvey had stripped it from me, replacing it with a vengeance that only his death could quench. He had not only threatened the lives of my sisters, but that of my husband, and that was something that I would never tolerate.
Harvey’s eyes glanced around to each of the lords, before settling on me. Our gazes locked in a battle for supremacy.
“The time has come.” Harvey rose and stepped off the dais to stand in the center of the room. “By the power granted to me as the high lord of the Holy Order of Levitas, I do declare us at war against all those who call themselves Phantoms.”
He could not be in earnest. He could not...
“Guinevere,” Harvey said with a hint of a smile, “bring us your husband.”
