The power of Order overflowed through the Scarlet King’s eyes, suppressing any sentiment he might have had toward the young woman, allowing his disguise to fool the duo.
William immediately took a step forward and positioned himself between the Scarlet King and Astrid. He didn’t feel a threat coming from the man and was confident he could defeat this one.
