章 331: Midnight Thoughts

"What has been troubling you my Sire?" Spoke a fine lady, in a delicate tone that would calm down any soul or spirit, as she gently massaged his neck.

It is past midnight now, King Zar should be in bed a couple of hours ago but he is sitting on his throne.

The past few months he hasn't been able to sleep well, and the reasons behind it are more than just Castle affairs. They are more than he is willing to tell.

"Because you are awake." Answered the lady directly, seeing how the King is already feeling just a little bit more relaxed thanks to her light massage. "How can I go to bed if you aren't well?"
