He knew full well it was more than that. “Remember, Duke, that you are stepping on Regaleria soil. Any misdemeanor will be held against you.

Let the princess reclaim her privacy.”

Duke Andrew couldn't fulfill his promise to Ariana, or protect the Sigmund Kingdom as the Duke of Alison anymore. “Your … Grace ….” When Duke Andrew heard James' voice, the light returned to those dull eyes as he tried to look up, though his body was no longer moving. Not far from his body, James was trying to crawl toward him. Every time the man advanced, a stream of blood shot out of one of his missing arms. James crawled at a very slow pace until he finally arrived in front of the Duke. “Please forgive me … Because I can't protect you or help you to keep your promise with Lady Aria.”

“The old Duke hasn’t shown his appearance yet, only the young duke.” “What? Isn’t he included with the delegation?” There are loopholes with the current situation. “Enough of those men, more importantly what the hell are they thinking of you?” Immediately his already frowning face gets more upset. “Haha , that I don’t know about myself.” Piquing the interest of the young duke, he has been persistently sending his servant to convince her to come along the North, in which to the eyes of others, it seems like he is pursuing Barrett more than the princess.

"I sense a strong magic presence in your gathering, This is not the energy of an Elve" Duke Rudeus climbs down from his horse with the captain of his knight. They began to walk towards the gather and he stood looking at Allan. The fire amid the Elves reflected in his eyes as he set his gaze at Allan. Allan stood to his feet looking at him.

But Beth had to admit that at the base of her thoughts she wished a male friend to tell of the tales of men and their endless escapades, like Eric had told.

the Duke continued, his voice softening, “are far too quick to dismiss people. This Adrian fellow… there’s something about him. A certain… spark. Perhaps he’s not everything he seems.” “Oh, he’s definitely not everything he seems,” I grumbled, “but that’t mean he’s the best choice for Annalisa. They’re both… well, bad choices!” “So you’ve finally reached that conclusion, have you?” the Duke chuckled, a hint of triumph in his voice. “Good.
