Chapter 139: All Broke Loose
"Welcome aboard, My King, My Queen," a man that looked like in his early forties greeted them aboard with a curt bow.
"Welcome aboard, Your Majesties," all the crews hummed in chorus.
Mineah looked around as they boarded the ship. She didn’t know how large the ship was, but she was pretty sure that it was quite bigger than the ship they used before.
"Mine, please meet Admiral Sixto," Nikolai said as he introduced her to the man leading their fleet.
"It’s a pleasure to meet you, Your Highness," the admiral greeted.
"Likewise," Mineah hummed in agreement. "I hope our added presence won’t be too much of a problem."
The admiral simply gave her a nod. And then, Nikolai gave out his signal, a loud drum roll playing throughout the ship as the fleet began to move. Mineah then felt her husband hold her hand before he then led her up to the upper deck where she had a better view of the fleets moving alongside them. If she recalled, they were the reinforcements Valcrez had sent to further aid their Kingdom’s war against Helion.
"Come," Nikolai hummed as he led her into the hallway. "This is the biggest ship Valcrez has. Our cabin is located here on the top deck. I hope you’ll like everything I prepared for you tonight."
Mineah turned to him. "Huh? You prepared something?"
Nikolai blushed, and Mineah bit her lower lip as she wondered what it was. A dinner date, perhaps?
With her mind still wondering, her questions were about to be answered, it seemed as Nikolai entered a dimly lit room. There, she instantly caught a whiff of the relaxing and soothing aroma of lavender.
