'She nearly burned the castle down because she loved him so much…'
Aideen repeated Bella's words inside her head, recalling the conversation she had with the maid the previous night about the mysterious female guest who had arrived at their castle.
Bella refused to share more details about what had happened to make Khala so angry, and she also refused to reveal the exact nature of Khala's actions that caused such a negative reaction to her sudden appearance. But one thing remained certain—Khala was not a welcomed guest in this castle, and nobody wanted her here.
"Bella said she is very dangerous, even psychotic… And I thought Sir Stanis had managed to train her well. I am so curious about her, and yet, I cannot even meet her."
It was decided that telling Tillian about what had happened to both the princess and the mage would only make him furious. Thus, no one in the castle was allowed to inform the Duke that Khala had attacked them.
