Chapter 556: PROVING THEIR POINT
Had the Red Claw pack managed to support the baby to retain his given position, Koda would have become the regent by now until the baby came of age to take over the throne.
"This whole situation is so fishy, Abby." Liam grew frustrated. In the public, there was no way he would voice his displeasure over a decision of hers. As her protector, his only duty was to serve, obey and protect her.
However, things between them were more than that. He cared deeply for her, not just because of his duty as the Holy knight.
"I know. That’s why we need to know more about it. The activity of black magic becomes more and more problematic nowadays, you know that as well, Liam. It is my duty to eradicate it."
"Abby..."
"I don’t want to hear any more protests, Liam. Your duty is to protect me, not to advise me," Abby said sternly and it seemed her words had hurt the knight, as his body stiffened and his voice became a little bit cold.
"Apologies for overstepping my boundaries, Serafim. I will take my leave. Have a good rest."
After saying that, Liam turned around and Abby felt a pang in her heart. She hated it when she hurt him and did not listen to him.
They should be in the capital city, but because of the recent power struggle, it was hard to say whether this new king was a safe option, even though Prince Alan was the person who had informed them about the activity of black magic in this continent. However, rumors say that he got involved with black magic too.
More so, Alpha Nolan had disclosed about Lady Cyan and how she was a dark witch, who had killed the previous king while Alan was her son.
Abby curled her body, hugging herself while thinking about the meeting with Alpha Colter tomorrow. From the letters she received, there was something very important that needed to be discussed in person, that was why the Alpha and a few of his people were taking the risk to cross the border to meet her in person.
