Chapter 160: Broken hearts
’You will never be a monster for me,’ Elliana’s words echoed in Sebastian’s head, and he sighed before entering his room.
"Sir, did you talk to Sir Vincenzo? How is the princess doing now? Is she fine now? I have dropped that boy into his room already," Lucas said.
He looked at his Prince who was in some deep thought and didn’t know how to continue.
"Vincenzo has invited Elliana to the royal Kingdom on the elder sister’s birthday," Sebastian said after a long time.
"I want you to look into who this Madam Gertrude is. That friend of Princess, I think was out to sleep by a witch. When I entered her room earlier, I sensed the presence of a strong witch. Chances are that the witches might come and target Elliana because I killed one of their kind," Sebastian sat on the bed before clenching his hand around the bed sheets.
"It’s bothersome," he paused.
"Now I’ll have to think about her safety too. As if I didn’t have enough things on my plate, I have to think to keep a human safe, a person from the same species who snatched everything from me," Sebastian grumbled, throwing his mask away angrily.
Lucas looked at his prince who was clearly frustrated about something and didn’t know how to react.
Why did it feel like he was using his anger in this situation to hide something bigger and different?
He says it was bothersome, but was it really? If he really didn’t care about the princess, why was he worried about her safety? If she gets killed by a witch, it won’t be his fault, would it be? His grandpa won’t say anything. So why was the prince stressing it so much?
Lucas smiled as his prince threw the bedsheets on the ground.
