As they drove through the busy road in the dark, many thoughts ran through Lucas's mind, “ What will my fate be when I get to the NSM office? Will I be punished? Will my identity be revealed? What excuse should I give for unsheathing the sword?”

He wasn't worried about the condition at home on how to handle Albert's issue and the announcement of Justin's death to the public, because he trusted Alex to deal with that.

He remembered when he visited the museum with Alex two days ago. Their father knew little about magic and he hadn't explained some of their family history to Alex, so he took it upon himself to enlighten him.
