บท 146: You’ll Be in Danger

Meanwhile, Jayra was just grateful that Bartos was around so that she could quickly escape the situation. Leaving her friend to deal with her mate was kind of in bad taste, but she was sure that Xenia could handle herself just fine.

"Do you think they'll be fine?" Bartos asked as Jayra dragged him out of the king's sight. "His Majesty looked anxious just now."

"Don't worry, it's nothing too serious," Jayra replied with a giggle. "King Darius is just jealous at seeing how his mate is drooling over naked men that's not him."

"He wasn't alone though," Bartos pointed out. "You and Princess Xenia shouldn't be watching them like that."

Jayra stopped walking and was about to pull her hand away from Bartos when the latter suddenly tightened his grip on her. Lifting her brows at Bartos, she questioned, "You mean you're also jealous? How come you're not reacting like that earlier back when I was with Princess Freya?"
