Without missing a beat, they all turned around to leave, and the room was immediately vacant in a matter of seconds, including Beta Tyson, who rushed out.
Seeing as I was the only one left, I gave Prince Deacon a slight bow and turned to leave as it was as vivid as day that he wasn't in a good mood.
"I'd like to show you somewhere, but it's not exactly a battlefield or meeting room. Head back, freshen up, and meetby the camp entrance in half an hour," he casually uttered, haltingfrom taking further steps.
Turning around, I observed his face, which was, unfortunately, void of emotions.
I arched my brows, curious and surprised by his unexpected and mysterious invitation. I wanted to ask more, but the sternness in his face and cold demeanor surrounding him stopped me.
"I understand," I replied in a small voice and turned around to leave.
As Prince Deacon demanded, I freshened up and changed into casual clothes, a grey halter crop top with an unbuttoned mustard dress shirt and jeans paired with my running shoes.

For a moment, I could hardly recognize that he was the sman I had been fighting side-by-side in a battle. Now, I understood why so many women was wishing to be with him and how they were constantly admiring him to be the most handsman in the kingdom.

My eyes narrowed when an unreadable glint in his eyes briefly flashed.
