Kapitel 182: Hand In Hand

It was just her first day back in Kinshearth and it was already as eventful as it could ever be. A large part of her wished she had just stayed in Starfrost Mansion and never came back. It was not just the mountain load of work she came back to, but the commotion caused by the Nobles of the High Court. 

She might have handled the situation well in her eyes, but in the eyes of her subjects, she was an absent ruler who went gallivanting with her lover. As the words on the page began to blur, Laina let out a sigh as she rubbed her temples. 

Dante, who decided to accompany her for the rest of the day, sat casually on the sofa. When he noticed how stressed Laina was, he came over to see what she was doing. He massaged her shoulders while leaning over to see the paperwork she was dealing with. 

"Are these papers bothering you, my princess?" he asked lightheartedly in an attempt to lighten the mood.
