Bab 281: The Last Longing Desire

While Prince Elliott and Princess Esmeralda ended up exploring the Pavilion, Hazel and Lucifel walked out of the king's courtyard itself.

As Hazel continuously walked slowly, her head feeling a bit better, Lucifel walked beside her giving a glance at his side from time to time. It got to a point where Lucifel couldn't take the silence anymore. "Hazel..."

Hazel stopped walking, her heart skipped at that moment because she wasn't expecting it. She was busy scheming about the best time to take the scroll from that secret place and what she would do next if that becomes successful.

She slightly raised her gaze and then smiled, trying not to let him be worried about her because apparently, he was worried about her. After all, she was pregnant with his seed. "Lucifel...is there anything wrong?"

"I should ask you that, you have been awkwardly quiet which is unlike you," he responded, his grey eye boring into hers.
