章 107: Chapter 107 Serendipity

"Prepare the carriage, Kaelen," Nero's voice held a commanding tone as he addressed his trusted servant. "I must also ensure that my presence is felt in this place."

Kaelen nodded deferentially, his weathered features betraying nothing as he absorbed his master's words. 

"It will be ready upon your exit, master," Kaelen replied with practiced efficiency before swiftly exiting to fulfill his duties. 

Though his outward demeanor remained stoic, inwardly, Kaelen's pulse quickened as his gaze briefly brushed against Astrid's figure. 

Yet, he maintained his professional demeanor, his focus unyielding even in the presence of such mesmerizing beauty.

Astrid's attire, a delicate fairy dress that hugged her curves seductively, drew admiring glances from onlookers, leaving little to the imagination. 

Yet, amidst the whispers of desire and envy, Kaelen remained steadfast in his duties, his loyalty unwavering even as temptation beckoned.
