Red Queen
“My father and Russell had covered my eyes before I got in their car. They said it was for my protection that I know as little as possible about where the Council preferred to meet.
But I felt like they didn’t trust me.
The house was large but no mansion. It was tastefully furnished yet passable as an ordinary home. They didn’t remove my blindfold until I was inside and sitting on a wool couch. There was at least a floor above the living room where we sat, maybe two. I liked the brick fireplaces..., the wooden floors, and the throw rugs that appeared to be from every part of the globe. Except for us, the house seemed empty.
Russell confirmed that fact. He was dressed in a navy-blue suit with a red tie. My father was more casual, but had on a gray sports coat and black slacks. He wasn’t going with me to meet the Lapras. Russell was to be my only guide.
Russell didn’t act as confident as before. I wasn’t sure what scared him more, meeting the Council or accompanying me to the enemy’s stronghold.MoreLess
