"These are…!" Prince Jirou took a closer look at the marks on Ivory's neck. "These are hickeys!"
Principal Arthurdane and Lucius looked at each other in surprise, then approached her to see if it was true, and they had confirmed it.
"No, these are… scars from when I was in a battle-"
"Don't fool me! These are obviously hickeys! Are these caused by your lover?"
"No, Your Highness, I don't have a lover-"
"If you don't have a lover, how the hell did you have those? Do you think I'm a fool?!" his voice turned louder. "You dare lie to the Crown Prince of the kingdom where you live in?! Should I bring you with me to the castle and lock you up in prison until you tell the truth?!"
Lucius suddenly stepped between them, "Your Highness! These are scars from when she and I sparred! The fireball that I made scattered into small pieces towards her, that's why she had those burn marks!"
