[Stop playing the master-slave game with my daughter. Accept her as your woman.] Orlan's voice, which had a warning undertone, sounded in his head.
Max broke out in a cold sweat. He could imagine what his ending would have been if he wasn't of Orlan's use.
After calming down, he felt even more fear towards him because while Orlan was talking to him, he never let on the fact he knew about the slave seal placed in his daughter.
'Did he find about it today or did he know from the day one? If it's the latter, he sure is a very ruthless man.'
"What happened, master?" Amara asked when he saw his intense reaction.
Max looked at Amara with some pity in his eyes. She didn't have a mother and had a ruthless father while her only support, her big brother, was imprisoned. He couldn't even imagine what kind of life she must have lived until she met him.
"Come here." He grabbed her hand and pulled her into his chest, embracing her tightly.
