‘I could guess that Isa said something that provoked her. What could it be? What made you so angry to the point you would show killing intent towards another person?’

Though it hadn’t been long since he brought this human to Agartha, he had known her enough to understand her personality. She might be reckless and naive, but she had a kind heart. Such a person wanted to attack another? It was a difficult thing for him to imagine if he had not seen what she almost did today.

He pushed away the stray hair strands that were stuck to her sweaty face.

‘That means I do not know you well enough. There are so many things I need to find out about you. However, I have to stay away from you for your own good. This bond does not allow me to stay sane, and if I test my limits, I don’t know what I would do to you.

‘Until you decide that we complete our bond, our situation will remain the same. But I have no wish to force you.

‘It all depends on what you decide.’

Not long after, Ember’s servants came to their master’s chamber after they saw her being carried away by Draven.

Draven stood up from the bed and looked at them. “She is merely exhausted. Have Yula give her a vitality potion.”

The elves received his orders, and Draven left, leaving Ember to be taken care of by her servants.

He could only silently wish that he could stay by her side for a bit longer.

Draven returned to his study where he saw Isa already waiting for him. It was good timing. He had already planned to call her but she was already there.

“Your Majesty…”

Her pretty face looked upset as soon as she laid her eyes on him. Her large watery eyes would make any person feel pity for her.

But Draven didn’t look at her and went straight for his armchair behind his desk. He didn’t ask Isa to have a seat and instead looked at her with his gaze seemingly colder than usual.

Seconds passed by as he waited for her to begin speaking. As she was the one who came on her own, he was sure she had something to say.

Isa looked at him as if he had wronged her. Her lips were trembling like she would cry any moment now, but seeing the lack of response from the King, Isa felt disheartened. Though she did expect him to be like his usual self, it did hurt her that he showed no interest in her well-being nor showed even a hint of worry for her.

For the first time, she somehow felt disappointed in him. Wariness also started to grow inside her. She felt like this time, there would be no preferential treatment. Maybe, part of it was also due to the guilt inside her as she knew she was the reason for what happened a while ago.

“Your Majesty, did you see what she almost did? S-She almost killed me today! That was so scary! How can such a monster be born among humans? Even till now, I cannot calm down…For a human to have such power is dangerous.”

Her entire body shivered as if she was traumatized by the entire experience.

“She’s crazy! I know she doesn’t like me, but is that reason enough to want to kill another person? Humans do really take life for granted. How easy is it for her to aim at another person? I am afraid once again what happened in the past would happen. Luckily, Your Majesty was there and I survived today unscathed. What if she attacks another person next time? I do not want other people to experience the same pain I suffered when I lost my brother–“

“What did you say to her?” Draven interrupted her. His voice was cold and his gaze emotionless.

Isa immediately swallowed the rest of her words. She didn’t expect Draven to ignore her previous words and ask this suddenly.

Isa took in a shaky breath and calmed herself. “Your Majesty, does it matter? No matter what I said to her, it was her responsibility to control her powers. If everyone in Agartha gave in to our anger, then no human in this continent would remain alive–“

“I will not repeat myself. What did you say to her?”

Draven didn’t stop Isa from visiting Ember as he thought it wouldn’t be much serious and things would end up in a small argument and Ember would know what kind of people she would be facing in the coming days. But what happened a while ago, he was sure something serious had happened that hurt Ember and she was so angry to the extent of killing a person.

That was not his Ember. The one he knew was kind and could never harm anyone.

In both the encounters between Isa and Ember, Ember was angry and Draven didn’t know what exactly was the talk about. During the previous day’s event, Draven reached there when the talk was over and he sensed Ember’s powers. By that time, Erlos and Morpheus were taking care of everything.

Also after Ember’s training a while ago, he left and didn’t expect something like that to happen. He came to Ember only when he sensed her powers.

Isa told Draven everything she had said to Ember after she finished her training. There was no regret on Isa’s face when she told this to Draven.

Draven continued to hear her quietly and as he didn’t stop her or showed any change in his emotions, Isa felt she did the right thing and his silence encouraged her.

“Not like she is any princess. She is just raised on some dead mountain by a random woman who she calls a nanny. How can a lowly being like her deserve to be your Majesty’s mate? It’s not acceptable. I will never accept it…..”

“It has nothing to do with whether you are willing to accept it or not,” he interrupted her, his cold words and his gaze had a warning for her in them.
