The Assassin in the Castle - Crown of Lies 2 - H. P. Mallory, J. R. Rain - English

When Master Nicolo realizes his mother is still alive, he tells me I’m to join him on his quest to locate her.
This little adventure will give me the perfect opportunity to assassinate him—something the prince eagerly reminds me of.
Yet, I’m torn…
Even though I’m not supposed to get feelings for my targets, I can’t help but think I’ve grown a bit of an attachment to Nicolo.
Yes, he has a rough exterior, and yes, there are times when I wish I’d already accomplished my task, but there are also moments when he reveals something deeper—someone kinder, someone nobler, and someone even funny.
Regardless, I’m well aware that I have a job to do, and the time to do it is dwindling away.
