Kapitel 112: Ultimatum

Oblivious to what had happened at the palace, Aylin and the others started their journey towards the place where Alpha Alexis had gone missing. It had been quite some time since they had left the palace. But Aylin had not spoken a word, rendering the other men curious and concerned. Yet, nobody raise the topic, allowing her to stay lost in her thoughts while they rode their horses behind her with Knight Commander Louis and young Tarvis leading them.

"Sir Louis, what is wrong with Commander Aylin? Why is she so silent?" Travis queried as he glanced at the lady right behind him, who still did not react when her horse let out a snort in between. 

"What are you talking about?" Louis frowned lightly and turned around, not at all expecting to see his Commander so deep in thoughts. However, unlike the others, he knew the reason why she was worried and the guilt that had finally eased after being assured by his superior, started to corrode his heart again.
