Night came, and as the cold breeze touched gently the lady's fair skin, she couldn't help but closed her eyes and shiver. She couldn't sleep at all. The conversation that she had with Charles and Ashiel earlier left her dumbfounded
She knew that Ashiel will be joining Charles' unit within the imperial household but she also knew that by doing so, he'll never be beside her for long years
Who knows if there's been plotting something bad at her, but then, Charles suggested one of his imperial knights guard her in exchange for Ashiel
They truly needed him that's why, when Charles talked to the duke about it, her father approved immediately
Well, for him there's no reason to deny it since the one who's asking a favor was the crown prince already
But then, it was her daughter's safety they were talking about so Charles recommended another knight from their unit
