The next day, Galen paced around his room with a troubled look on his face.
He was feeling very unsettled, and not just because his assassination attempt had failed, but because he couldn't understand how news of Crimson Moon's failure had spread so quickly within the inner court.
Although the rumors didn't implicate him directly, the speed at which the information was leaked meant that someone had eyes on him.

Then he realized that it had to be one of his elder brothers.
Only his brothers would have the resources and motive to spy on him without being noticed,

His brothers had likely been waiting for him to make a move against the fourth prince while biding their time for the perfect opportunity to use it against him and eliminate him from the succession race.
