My heart was pounding. I quickly looked towards where Killian was and noticed his eyes were wide with fear. He was standing now, looking directly at Xavier.

"Your Majesty, I-I, we were training that is all. I didn't mean to offend you." This was the first time I've seen Killian look so shaken. I guess he really knows what Xavier is like, especially when he is furious. He must sense danger and be truly fearing for his life.

I blinked and in that moment I knew I couldn't let Xavier harm Killian. No matter how annoying, mean and cruel he was to me, he didn't deserve Xavier's wrath for something...
