Chapter 96: A little too much

Everyone was left utterly speechless at Prince Gavriel's angry roar. He was not one who usually vent his wrath or frustrations out on people around him. This just told them how infuriated he was, and it was a personal affront to His Highness from the way he had acted. It took them a few moments to finally snap to attention and move themselves from being frozen from shock.

Their prince was long gone but none of the officials, the duke included, complained. Instead, their faces all looked utterly relieved, and a blissful and hopeful look bloomed on their taut faces. It seems as if everyone would be getting what they wanted – hopefully. All of them were pinning their hopes on the prince and praying that the princess would be cooperative as well.
