Before Marius or Dante had time to react, the entire room was covered in a forcefield. Dante widened his eyes in shock. He never expected his mother to go to these lengths. She was attempting to trap him there.
Dante went to the door of his room and attempted to go through it but he was pushed back by an unseen force, knocking him onto the ground. Marius quickly went forward to help him back up.
"Without my order, you will not be able to leave this room until you've fully recovered," Cecilia warned before she took her leave.
Dante curled his hands into fists. He refused to accept this. He had to do something. Just as he was about to turn to Marius, Cecilia had the royal guards arrest him.
"Lock Lord Marius in the dungeon. Without my orders, no one is allowed to let him out."
