The sky was dark and overcast, and she had a heavy feeling in her stomach, but Iliana didn’t want to consider the possibility she was making a mistake. She had left Icarus and flown to Valencia without Demetrius’s approval. He hadn’t wanted to discuss the matter further. She had tried to talk to him. He had been busy, in meetings and on phone calls. When she’d brought it up, he’d looked at her, told her she couldn’t go and left the room. Iliana had Demetrius’s security with her. They were likely keeping the president informed of her whereabouts and she supposed they would have stopped her if this was a mistake. Maria had thought she should go. Maria had met the baron. She’d described him as a crotchety old man but said he wielded power and influence over politics in Valencia. If the king’s children wanted him on their side, Iliana had to win him over. Anything to keep him from joining Stella’s camp.
