"Lena, I have a lot to settle first, I will have the princess stay with you till I return. Don't worry, no one will come to harm you again. When I am through, I will come and stay with you, okay?" He said.
"It is okay... With the princess here, I will be alright. Go and do your things and protect yourself well too..." Lena said to him and smiled while caressing the back of his palm gently. She hoped that she could give him the assurance that he needed to know that she would be fine. After all, he had also done so much for her.
Just before Alexandro could say anything, the door was pushed open and Simeon walked in. He bowed in acknowledgment before straightening his back and looking at Alexandro respectfully.
"Your highness, his majesty requests your presence in the throne room!" He voiced.
Alexandro fixed his gaze on Lena, it was obvious that he was unwilling to let go of her yet. Knowing this, Lena smiled and gave a small nod.
