Bab 903: Flaunting Her Authority

"I never expected that the new Village Chief would be my son-in-law," Thak exhaled. "Come in then. There's no reason to keep you waiting outside," he added, making his way through the door for Orion to enter.

Salia stepped backwards. After Orion walked in, Thak closed the door.

"Why didn't you attend the festival today?" Orion asked, curious, his eyes fixed on the couple before him as he waited for Tala to emerge.
