The Valkyrie Returns and Slays (Raven) novel Chapter 571

Chapter 571 The Explanation

Raven glared at Thorian, thinking, ‘Good thing I know those bedroom aphrodisiacs don’t work on me, or I might’ve actually wondered if something happened with Thorian.‘

Besides, Thorian had some unmistakable marks of sex on him. Marks couldn’t be faked. But Raven was absolutely sure the person with her earlier was Cassian.

‘Did Thorian hook up with some other woman and then barge into my room pretering to be Cassian? Raven wondered. Just the thought made her stomach turn.

What was more, after admiring Cassian’s perfect figure earlier, looking at Thorian’s, Raven felt it was so bad.

She didn’t want to waste another second looking at Thorian. Turning on her heel, she headed straight for the living room.” Put some clothes on and get out here. We need to talk.”

At the same time, Raven pulled out her phone, intending to contact Cassian, only to remember his phone had been out of commission since the incident at the Indigo Lab.

Sinking into the sofa, Raven rubbed her temples in frustration. ‘I just got Cassian to calm down, and now he’s gone again? Seriously, what’s his deal?‘ she wondered.

Cassian had been in Broson City earlier. Raven couldn’t understand why he hadn’t come to see her. Now, after finally showing up, he found an excuse to send her away and disappeared again.

From Raven’s perspective, with Cassian’s abilities, it was impossible for him to leave under duress. But this time, she had truly misunderstood him.

Cassian genuinely wanted to try the sushi from the shop near the Imperial Mansion, but before he could enjoy a rare sweet meal moment with Raven, his primary personality emerged again, fighting for control of his body.

Otherwise, even if Cassian’s prodigy personality lacked strength, Benson’s men wouldn’t have been able to take him so easily.

Five minutes later, Thorian stepped out of the bedroom, now dressed in a robe.

“Spill it. What’s going on?” Raven asked, her tone so composed that it carried an invisible weight, making Thorian feel suffocated.

Thorian’s eyelid twitched, and he quickly lowered his gaze, reciting the explanation he’d rehearsed countless times in his mind. “Lady Valor, someone invited me to meet at Imperial Mansion yesterday.

Thorian must have taken advantage of Cassian’s absence to sneak into the room and pretend he had been there all along.

But Raven was confused about how Thorian knew what had transpired between her and Cassian just moments ago.

And Cassian had gone so far as to mimic Cass

“Yes.” Thorian’s lips curved into a faint smile, his tone tinged with amusement. “For me, it’s a memory worth cherishing.”

Raven’s gaze turned even more icy.
