"Who's in there?" A royal guard shouted as he threw the door open and pointed his sword to anyone who could have been helping the prisoner escape.
But before his hands were even laid on the wooden door, Erin managed to squeeze in behind the barrels that Azra was leaning in to.
She clutched her chest as the loud beating of her heart at that time might alarm the guard that there were two people inside.
"It is only I." Azra answered him with a calm demeanor.
His hands were on his back, making it look like they were still tied. He attempted to stand so that he could shield Erin more, aside from the barrels that were keeping her in full view.
They can hurt him all they want but they can never touch Erin!
"Stay where you are!"
The royal guard pointed his sword at Azra to make sure that he would not move an inch as he stepped further towards him.
Azra gulped as he did not have his sword with him at that moment.
