Aselia's body finally decided to obey her and she advanced to the nearby chair and settled down to face him, she asserted:
"Speak!"
Xiran turned around to face her and found her sitting there looking like a queen, his queen. He finally smiled a little seeing her act like herself. But he kept his distance for now.
"I have given everything a lot of thought. Firstly my approach was wrong, I should have trusted you and spoken to you instead of forcing my opinion on you."
"Thank you, for seeing the error in your ways," Aselia replied dryly.
"That being said, I will not take back my decision of you not going after my father and if your life is ever in danger I will always prioritize your safety. Not the consequences, not the world, not even myself will matter to me when it will come down to protecting you."
