章 420: This Is Not Over

Islinda felt uneasiness wash over her as she sat rigid, expecting one of them to charge forward and chaos to ensue. However, it was Aldric who first looked away, his signature smirk playing on his lips. He examined Islinda with delight in his eyes and said, "But don't worry, none of us will be dying today. After all, you did say this room is a safe space."

Islinda breathed a sigh of relief. Aldric had respected her boundaries. She had no idea what she would have done if a fight had broken out between them.

She gave Aldric a small smile before glancing at Valerie, who seemed unimpressed by their interaction. Valerie believed that Aldric mistreated her in his castle, which was why he had attempted to switch her soul. It was as if the summer Fae prince wanted to believe that Aldric was a terrible monster, as it would justify his hatred towards him.
