“Why are you here?” Ivor frowned.
Ged added, “You have the wrong room.
“Oh, sorry.” Bonnie stepped outside and checked the room number.
“Heath, you said the room number was 007, right?”
Heath was puzzled. “Yeah, this should be it.”
Bonnie opened the door again and walked in.
“Why are you back?” Ged asked, baffled.
She looked at them and said, “You guys have the wrong room. We’re supposed to meet someone in
Room 007.
“Hey, I booked the room, okay? You’re the ones who must have made a mistake,” Ged said confidently.
Bonnie frowned and asked, “Are you sure?”
Ged showed them the booking information on his phone.
“See for yourself!”
Astonished, Bonnie looked at Ivor, then at Ged. “Which one of you is the Knight?”
Ivor and Ged stared at Bonnie and the good–looking man beside her in astonishment.
“You’re here for the game?”
Ivor stood up. His gaze wavered between Bonnie and Heath and eventually settled on the latter.
The Shepherd was young indeed.

Ivor’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“You’re the Shepherd?”
“My family name is Shepard. Isn’t it obvious?” Bonnie said blandly.
Ivor bolted to his feet and frowned.
“What the fuck?” Ged gaped at Bonnie. He was even more shocked than when he found out she was the last student of Cary Burns.
“You’re the Shepherd? Oh my God! This can’t be happening!” Ged thought he had lost it. He scratched his head a few times, but could not seem to recover from the shock.
Ivor was equally astounded, although he did not show it. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Bonnie.
“Don’t you want to play chess with me? I’ve been waiting for this day too. Sit down so we can begin.”
Bonnie flipped a coin and covered it as it fell on the back of her hand.
“Heads or tails?”
Ivor tried to remain calm and sat back down.
“Heads.”
Bonnie revealed the coin. “You make the first move.
In a chess game between experienced players, one wrong move could lead to defeat.
