Reynold stared at Laena frowning face for a second. He turned and walk away without any word.
Just as he took the first step, her voice sounded from behind him.
"You want to know how Gwyn broke her arm?"
Reynold stopped walking.
"She was defending you," Laena said. "One of the Noble-High students went after her because she was trying to defend you. They beat her until her arm was broken. That is how she ended up in a cast."
Laena paused as her voice dropped lower.
"If you were smart, Reynold, you'd stay the fu*k away from her."
Reynold did not turn around or say anything. He just kept walking.
He left the magic-user building and walked toward the rider side.
Murmurs were flying around. Cadets were walking in pairs and small groups. Most of them were talking about the same thing.
The words reached Reynold's ear.
"I heard the list for the tournament will soon be out," one muttered, shaking his head.
