Victoria's POV
I couldn't deny I felt safe in Owen's arms. Still, I wanted to stay away from him because I knew it was a big sin to feel this way since I am in love with Oliver. But something about him made me so drawn to him, and that is the feeling of being secure and having him around feels like I am with the man I love.
And when Owen told me the black king captured Oliver, I couldn't stop myself from crying out loud because it felt like he was telling me Oliver was dying. I know how wicked the black king could be, and knowing there was no way out, I felt terrible, and I felt like I was losing him.
And no matter how Owen tried to soothe me, I couldn't stop thinking about Oliver's situation, and I only ate less during dinner even if I was starving when I was with him at the clearing because I lost my appetite the moment I learned about my fiance's current condition.
