Bab 146: Pelly

{Verena Laurel's p.o.v}

"Your Majesty, may I?"

Handing his hand out for me to reach, Kyros flashes white teeth. "I can return on my own" I decline. The welcome party has ended. Kev went back to his work room due to an urgent event which means I am alone with Kyros Verde on the path to my chamber currently.

"I was decreed to assist you, Your Majesty. How can I neglect my duty?" Kyros tilts his head. What a courageous response. He dares to defy me with such reason. "It is inappropriate for a lady to be guided by a gentleman late at night. It can ruin our reputations" I assert, calmly.

Now, Kyros quiets down. He blinks. Smiling still like a halfwit. "My apologies for the poor thoughts, Your Majesty. I simply wanted to fulfill my duty" At last. "Then I wish you a wonderful night, Your Majesty. Please pardon me" Kyros bows as I step away from the place.
