"Well, sometimes, we don't need to speak often to love someone. I just love you and that's-"
"If you are serious about what you are saying, then you have made a big mistake. I am only a general here and I do not desire to have any relationship with anyone here, especially you."
He said to her, and immediately hurt by his words, Daphne remained motionless for a few moments as she processed his words.
"But-"
"Listen, I don't feel the same way about you. Besides, this would never be allowed by his majesty. If he even hears about this, you will be in even more trouble. So... you shouldn't have come to say this to me."
"I am not interested in love or whatnot. I have no interest in romantic relationships. I don't even make friends, so I still don't understand what made you think I would respond to your feelings."
He shook his head at her and, having not expected such a harsh response from her, Daphne breathed heavily and shut her eyes, trying to calm herself down.
