"We even came here because of something very important to me."
When Rowan said so, Duke reminded himself that it was Rowan's dream to get invited here in the capital. He wanted to shock and make Scott fear his return. They just didn't realize that Scott would stick to him like gum on his shoe instead.
"I'm sorry, baby. Let me make it up to you." Duke chuckled at the cute boyfriend. He worked hard in rehabilitating this one to regain his personality. However, Rowan was now too audacious; he often weaponized Duke's past insistence for him to voice out what he wanted.
As for Duke getting tired of Rowan, no. He couldn't see himself leaving Rowan for something small. Not a lot could endure a relationship with a mercenary, especially when Duke was not trying to hide his life from Rowan. Rowan was even trying to find a place in that world…
No matter how minuscule it was.
