章 58: Mind control

''I have been here twice. Both the times with Princess. Since Princess has been beheaded by My Lord, I want to go back to our Kingdom before they think I am a traitor and punish my mother who is my only family. I came here with Princess because she was one of the candidates for the marriage.''

''And when and why did you come here for the first time?" A trail of sweat droplets appeared on her forehead.

She was unable to control her powers and she was doing this forcefully but the more time passed, the more painful it became.

''I came here two years ago to meet Her Grace Duchess Flora who is our Princess' distant Aunt,'' All of the woman's answer matched what she has been saying all this time. There was no lie in it. 

''But...'' Esme's eyes suddenly closed as she fell back but Aleister effortlessly supported her body from the back. 

''That's enough,'' He softly said as he adjusted her body before carrying her in his arms.
