"Are you all filming some romantic drama or something?"
I stepped out from behind my hiding place and threw the words into the middle of their little scene.
I had no choice.
Layla had been seconds away from revealing that Milleia carried Raphiel's bloodline right there, in front of everyone. If that information somehow spread and reached Ante-Eden, then even I, with everything I knew, would not be able to protect her in my current state. Milleia herself would not be able to defend herself either, not unless her bloodline awakened properly, or unless she learned to control Ceatha.
And neither of those possibilities was something I could bet her life on.
I really hadn't expected Layla to push things that far.
This wasn't some petty noble rumor.
It was a state secret.
