The prince's words had left a heavy impact on me. So much so, that I had been following them a few steps behind thinking about what he had said.
His words had continued to roam and were being repeated again and again in my mind. Was I not enough? Had my education lacked somewhere so much that I could not differentiate between affections for a man to the suspicions I should have had for him?
But Tristan was someone who genuinely cared about the little children, barely at the age of marriage, being abducted and who, when found, did not want to return to their families.
But if I looked at it from the Prince's point of view, yes, he had information which should be with the authority's concerned, with the royal court but at least he was making an effort more than any of them did. Did that not count?
