"Why do you always apologize for something you didn't do, Lexx?"
"What did you say?" he asked, catching my attention as I raised my head. "Just now… what did you…?"
"Your Majesty?" I furrowed my brows, perplexed at what caused him to look at me in surprise. Did I say something offensive?
Stefan let out a weak scoff, shaking his head lightly. "It's… nothing." But I didn't think it was actually nothing, but I ignored it.
"Your Majesty, please forgive my insolence and tactless actions just now." I bowed politely, acknowledging my impudent actions towards him. He was still the king, after all.
"I will make sure it will never happen again. I must take my leave now."
He hummed a low tune, and I assisted myself up. I really needed to return or Ramin would be spitting fires; it'd be a miracle if the entire office wouldn't be set on fire now. But just as I took three hasty steps, I stopped when Stefan called.
Phew! I can't believe we have finished volume three! :O How was the third volume? Have more questions? Leave a comment and this author shall answer or if there's more to cover in volume 4 ^^
Thank you, everyone, for sticking with The Duke's Passion until now! I really appreciate it :) I'm currently editing the initial chapters with the help of LadyStoic :) We're currently at CH 9. There are a bit of changes. (fret not, the story flow remains. Just for better reading if you ever wanted to re-read the story!)
I hope to see you all in Volume 4. Also, if you haven't known yet, there will be changes in the Webnovel voting system ^^ There's an announcement page, but I hope you vote The Duke's Passion and support me in my future writing endeavors.
I tagged this book, come and support me with a thumbs up!
