"We don't have much time. But please don't be scared. Do you want to tell me what happened? About the basement and what you said?" he asked her. His voice was soft and jealous. Mira was looking at her with big deer like eyes, as she breathed heavily. The girl couldn't sleep even in her own house. Allias felt so bad for her. He wore his most charming smile, the kindness in his eyes was almost like a magic spell. He caressed her flushed cheek and she slowly calmed down. "You can trust me." He said. The girl took a deep breath and closed her eyes. Uttering a sentence that surprised them both. 

"He has dead bodies in the basement." 

Allias and Theseus had made many assumptions while they laughed a few minutes ago. They had never thought something like that would be the lord's secret. The king looked at the girl dumbfounded, his kind smile slowly being erased from his face.

"What do you mean?" He asked her.
