บท 31: Princess?

"Don't be scared of me."

Cleaning his throat awkwardly, Duke of Sol explained, kneeling in front of Aylin, "I was here to help the royal guards to find you. I was near the red light area when Knight Rio sent his pigeon with your information."

Aylin mumbled in a puzzled tone, "Rio? Brother Rio asked you to come?"

Aylin's tone was low and trembling. Tears were still blurring her vision as she was looking up in the direction of the Duke with her beautiful doe eyes.

The Duke couldn't bear to see her like that anymore. He hastily asked in an impatient tone, "Yes. Can I help you now, Miss? It seems that you are in pain. Let me help you please."

Aylin nodded her head positively and instantly, the Duke of Sol began to untie her hands. The ropes bruised her wrist and for the first few minutes, Aylin only stretched her arms and legs to chase away that numbness. But, she was more worried about her revealing dress.
