I don't get to see them get married. You get me into the palace and out without coming across them..” Ellinor was shocked, she wasn't expecting him to take this offer! She had expected him to say no and then turn against him..“You are going to go with me? Why? I thought you said you wouldn't? Why did you change your mind?” “I never said I wouldn't, I said I need time to think about it.

“Did I hear you correctly? Someone tried to kill my son?! How could you let this happen?!” Amanda snapped.Danfus just one job, one job! Which was to keep the prince safe but here he was telling her that someone tried to kill her son!“I didnt know that something like this would happen, my queen.”“Tell me you caught the bastard who try to do this! Tell me that he is behind bars so I can end his life myself!”Danfus knew that he could only offer more bad news so he decided not to answer.“My apologies, my queen. I will make sure that this does not repeat itself again.” “You couldn't catch him. Someone tried to kill my son and you couldn't even catch the person?!” I was afraid that the person wasn't alone and if I leave the prince by himself they might try to attack him while I'm not there, I should have gone with reinforcement. I am really sorry, my queen.” This is utterly unbelievable. Why would anyone want to kill my son? Why would anyone want him dead? “We are searching for e

Why would she relieve Danfus of his duties without informing him first?!Edward got ready, took his bath and head straight to his mother's room.She had better have a good explanation about what the meaning of all this rubbish was! Unless he wasn't going to take things lightly with her!
