Was she just another ghost from his past, making the mistake of thinking she could come back and matter again? Duke finally looked at her. “We’ll head to the stables first. One of the cows gave birth early this morning—I need to check on it,” he said, nodding politely to the staff before walking ahead.

I said to Elizabeth trying not to sound too whiny. “I will see what I can do, Eric. Do not screw this up. She is an amazingly strong woman. She is worthy of your love and being a royal,” Elizabeth said before closing our link. What had happened, I wondered, as I look at my useless leg.

I looked for him in the crowd, motioning him to join us. “I’m sure some of you already know why I’m up here,” he started, smiling at me and then the Duke. “I’m here because our brother Ghost is moving over to the Valkyrie, and from here on, will be known as the Duke.” The bar was full of cheers from both the Valkyrie and the Henchmen. “Duke,” he raised a glass in a toast. “If she scares you too much, you’re more than welcome to come back.”

He was an old dragon with powerful strength, however, he was nothing against the Duke. "I don't know what you are talking about, Your Highness." "Don't play me for a fool, who gave the instruction to capture my wife?" He didn't say a word, but then frowned. "I don't know."

Because of the impact, the Duke's nose broke. "Argh!" Duke Martin shrieks in the pain as his nose bleeds. "I guess you need another hit, Father!" Lady Genesis claims as she landed another punch at the Duke's jaw. The Duke lost his footing, causing his body to drop on the ground. "Oh no!" Duchess Melany utters in complete hopelessness, and she runs towards her husband. "How dare you! After we raised you!" Duchess Melany yells at Lady Genesis as the Duchess's eyes dew. "Where's my family, wrench?" Lady Genesis inquires firmly as her face remains still.

His assistant, a quiet man known only as Veyren, stood at his shoulder, eyes scanning every movement with a spy’s precision. “…It’s time,” Duke Edmond said, swirling the wine lazily. “The boy prince plays at being king while his father fades behind velvet curtains. And now he’s chasing ghosts—charming that McMayer girl instead of preparing for war. He’s a distraction to himself. A liability to the realm.”

(Duke Merrica) "...I sense something bad coming to you…and your kingdom…maybe you want to investigate more on that knight….maybe he was hiding something.." Seeing my serious expression, Duke nods and leaves the room once again. "Sire, you giving him too many clues…". (Elijah) ".…Well, seeing from how that duke reacts…I'm pretty sure the brains of this family was The Duchess…". It's true, Duke Merrica was a fine man. Looking at his stats he was definitely a strong man well versed in physical strength and wars. But, he was a bit slow in the uptake compared to his wife. "Your Excellency….what are we going to do after this?..". (Mina) Unfazed by anything that just happened, Mina finally speaks o

I won’t accept having it removed! She said coldly, “Open the door. Let him out!” The heavy iron gate was pulled open, and Duke stood up indifferently. As he was passing by Mavice, he whispered, “Don’t try to catch me again, because there is always an army around to serve me. I hope I will never see you again.” He then strode out. Mavice fell into her chair. ‘I’ve underestimated this man. I was too impatient, and now I’ve lost my chance…’

"Don't you start playing the feudal lord with me pal, you will lose any games on those lines, and besides, it's our bed!" Oh really? Jasper chuckled. "I am your feudal lord. Whether you say so or not, you're married to me. And as the eleventh duke, you, my sweet love, come under my protection." He waited for a minute and went to the door of the studio.
