"Move," Drayce said coldly. His intimidating red eyes stared into another pair of anger-filled sapphire blue eyes.
Cian did not budge, already throwing away whatever royal etiquette and polite speech he should be showing towards Drayce. "Why did you return? This is not a place for the King of Megaris to wander around. This is my sister's—"
"If you are that worried about her, why don't you go inside instead of blocking my way?" Drayce countered.
The two men glowered at each other, and for the onlookers, the situation seemed to be spiraling out of control. It would be terrible for both kingdoms if the King of Megaris and the Crown Prince of Abetha found themselves in a swordfight.
"No one can go inside," Cian said.
"And why is that so?"
"There is no need for King Drayce to know about it. We would appreciate it if you leave."
