By the time Darius returned to his bedroom after delivering Mila to his brother’s bedroom, his lover for the night had already left. Unfortunately, he couldn’t bid her a proper goodbye, but he knew it was better this way. After a short nap, Darius was eager to greet a new dawn. This time, he had pleasing news to report to his father.
Callum greeted the prince when he arrived at the royal assembly hall, where the king was waiting to see him. The older man bowed slightly to show respect before briefing the prince on the current situation.
“Prince Darius, I submitted my report of all the princes’ activities last night to the king. The king has reviewed all the reports and requested a meeting with you,” Callum summarized smoothly.
“Did the king ask for Leonard?” Darius asked.
“No, Your Highness. At least, not yet…” Callum replied before gesturing for the prince to enter the hall.
