But, why are they not attacking them?The two have the same question, but then they looked at the unperturbed expression on the faces of their young lord, the general and Jared with a subtle guess.

As the crown prince of the Artemia Kingdom, his royal father would not accept the fact that his fated mate is a rogue, and such a thought made him afraid.
