Chương 161: Return To The King's City

 By the time they arrived at The King's City Vincent was exhausted and in pain. The sun had long since set and the streets were lit with torches. The air smelled of smoke and the sound of the night insects grew quieter the farther into the city they traveled. 

 At the house, some of their servants came outside to greet them and were shocked to see their pirate guards. Ilona, Ian, and their two younger brothers got down from their horses and waited as Vincent and Delaney got out of the carriage.

 Vincent forced himself to stand tall although he looked haggard from their journey.

 "You can send your men to inns," he told Ilona with a hoarse voice, "I will pay for their stay."
