Arthur nodded “I will send a fresh team since we have not gotten a report from the formal ones we sent”

They had sent people to the north before about this issue but have received no word from them like someone was preventing them from finding out what this was all about.

“What about the officiasl?” Damian asked.

“I dismissed them”

“Did anyone act out of character?” Damian looked at Arthur questionably. He was in a terrible mood so he would not mind having a scapegoat.

    "What exactly do you want?! Do you think that forcing me to remain here is going to do any good?Althea stared at the cruel face of the man in front of her, extremely shaken to the core. She could not believe that he would actually go this far, threatening her with the people that she cared about! Damian scoffed, refusing to respond to Althea. He could not bring himself to hurt her, but they were many people that he could take out his anger on! Grabbing Alicia's collar, he lifted her up, with a sinister grin on his face "Damian!""Baron!" Both Alicia and Althea cried out at the same time, with fear in their voices. Althea's eyes were wet with tears as she believed that all of this was her fault. If she had not asked Alicia to help her then she would not be suffering right now. "Damian please... Please let her go..." Althea pleaded, she would not be able to live with herself if something really happened to Alicia because of her "Baron, she was the one who asked me to help her! A

    Although Althea was seated on the comfortable chair, she could not sit still at all. Her heart was racing fast, and her fists were clenched tightly together as she watched the unusually calm Damian, waiting to see what he was planning to do to her. She thought for sure that she was going to be punished once Damian brought her back to his house, the last time she attempted to run away, she had been locked up in a dark room for a few days after all. Althea was prepared for all of these scenarios, however, none of those things happened. Instead, she was led back to her chambers, the maids were even more polite to her. They were people serving her at every turn, and they seemed scared to make her unhappy. Althea felt like she was going crazy from all of this. Damian was definitely angry that she tried to escape once again, so why was he not doing anything to her? The worst part was that she has not seen her personal maid that usually served her ever since she got back.All of the peo

    Enzo paused for a few seconds when he heard this, his eyes heavy as he stared at his father. "A wife?" He repeated slowly, wanting to make sure that he heard what his father said correctly. His father has never been interested in this marriage before this, and now he suddenly wanted him to take a wife? "Enzo, your father is doing this for your own good. If you get married to a woman from a powerful family, you are going to have a lot of support that you will need later. You need to get all of the nobles on your side," the Queen Latisha's gaze was soft as she tried to convince her son. She knew what her husband was trying to do, and she knew that her son could be very stubborn. She was hundreds percent in support that he should marry from a powerful family and not a peasant.“You must marry someone with influence. If you do not marry who we want then I will make sure that maid you love will be killed”Enzo's eyes turned red, his claws came out and his veins became more pronounced.

    Damian pushed the door open and stepped in, his eyes staring murderously at Althea.Althea shifted back until her back hit the wall, she knew that it was all over when she saw that familiar look on Damian’s face. Her heart skipped more than a few beats, and she so badly wanted the ground to open up and swallow her. She wonders what he will do this time, skin her alive?What kind of situation was this? She finally managed to make it out, but she didn't even get to go outside of the kingdom before she was found again. Damian got to her and grabbed hold of her hand tightly. Althea winced in pain, tears roll down her eyes. “You tried to escape again? Where were you planning to go, to your family or to another land?!!”Althea bit her bottom lip so hard.Damian raised her chin roughly so she would look at him “No matter where you go, I will always find you!! It seems you don’t know the extent I’m willing to go”Althea's face was stained with tears as he brushed his fingers against her ski

    Althea, seeing the maid's resistance, started to panic more. She knew that it would only be a matter of time before Damian was informed. "Please, I really need him to get out of this place. I....""I am sorry, but I can't do that. The crown prince has ordered that we take good care of you. If something happens then I....I am going to lose my life" The maid complained. Althea bit her lip, she was not willing to give up like this. "You don't need to do anything for me. You just need to tell me how the man that was with me can leave this palace. I will take everything from there..." Althea assured the maid. The maid had a conflicted look on her face, Althea looked like she was determined no matter what, and she felt some pity for the woman. "Well, you can..." the maid said."He can’t leave, not after he tried to help you escape?" Althea froze when she heard this voice, and the maid looked like she was about to pass out. She bowed her head as soon as the crown prince"s face came in

    Judan ran a hand through his hair in frustration when he heard this. He cursed violently in his mind."What is wrong with you, Alicia? How could you act without telling me about it!!? Do you think that you are so smart that you can fool the baron?" Judan scolded her. "What else could I have done?!" She snapped back at her father, because although she had failed, she didn't want to admit defeat. "I only took action because you refused to help me! I am your daughter, if you had done something when I told you that I wanted to become the baroness, then I wouldn't have acted on my own! Anyway, that human princess doesn't love the baron! She wants to leave him. All that I did was help her leave!" Alicia insisted in her heart that she was right. She was the only one fit to be the baroness in the entire kingdom, and sooner or later, Damian would have to acknowledge that fact! "Do you know that your actions have put me in a terrible position? If Damian finds evidence of this and he accuses
