Dumping The Ice King His Mini-Tyrant novel Chapter 433

Was Leo really trying to sideline him?

And now Leo was even letting Altair join Dames’s private lessons, which only heightened Harrison’s wariness.

Harrison spoke up, making sure his words were loud enough for Liam, Patriarch Vaughn, and the rest of the Vaughn elders to hear.

Leo’s back was to Harrison as he replied in a voice as cold as steel, “Are you trying to teach me a lesson?”

Dames’s heart gave a wild shudder; like a startled kitten, he instinctively burrowed into Gemma’s arms.

Dames felt a chill at his crown. He clutched the top of his head, cheeks puffed out in protest. “I don’t know.”
