Regulus finally stopped stepping on Lorenzo’s chest and went to sit down on his armchair.
The guard grabbed Lorenzo by his collar and made him kneel down in front of the Lord. And as if Lorenzo wasn’t already threatened enough by the Lord himself, the guard also bent down and gave a threat, “Do what Lord Regulus has asked of you or I will be fulfilling the Lord’s wish and dig up your grave right where you are.”
Regulus smirked and mockingly said, “Don’t threaten the poor man too much. He might wet his pant before he says a word.”
The guard laughed at the joke and went back to standing in front of the closed door.
When the room fell silent, Lorenzo finally began to mumble, “Milord, first of all, I would like to clarify that I have always been on the late alpha’s side and now, I am naturally on your side. Not on the King’s side. I have never been on the King’s side. He is from a different clan. I wouldn’t be able to be on his side even if I wanted to.”
