Rania found Maximus in his beast form, fighting off a brown beast. It was very clear that the other beast was not a match for the king.

And when they caught the sight of her, the brown beast immediately shifted into his human form.

“I yield! I Yield!” Eiten said hastily. He breathed greedily when the king’s beast got off his chest. “That’s not fair! I am half drunk, how could you fight me!?”

And then the protest started. Eiten was clearly not happy with the result even though in his better condition, there was no way for him to be able to win against the king.

“Damn it… How could you drag me out of the party and ask me to fight?” Eiten got up, while Maximus shifted into his human form. “What happened? Did you two fight or something?”

Rania shook her head, she approached the two of them, and stupidly, she forgot to bring her notes.

Meanwhile, Maximus got his jacket and draped it around her shoulders. “How could you get out with thin clothes like this?”

“Thin clothes?” Eiten furrowed his brows when he saw Rania’s pajamas. It looked proper enough for him. “If that’s thin clothes, then I overdress.” He grabbed a bottle of water and then walked away. “Now, you have company, I will take my leave. Whatever problem the two of you have, solve it before breakfast. It’s not good to see the king and queen were frowning at each other in their first day after the ceremony.”

And then Eiten walked away, he didn’t want to get caught with them. The last time it was bad enough, he hoped Rania could help Maximus to calm down.

“Why are you here?” Maximus sat down, he poured the water to his face. “You should get more rest.”

‘Why are you here?‘

Rania didn’t bring her notes and pen, but Maximus was able to read her lips just find.

“Eiten is lack of training. He can’t indulge himself in a party.”

That was a lame excuse and Maximus knew that. Rania then sat down next to him, and grabbed his hand. She tilted her head and looked at him deeply into his eyes.

‘What happened? Is there something you hide from me?‘

Maximus didn’t answer the question, but he stared at her for a little bit longer, which made Rania think he didn’t get her at first, thus she repeated what she said.

Still, Maximus didn’t give her any response. He simply stared at her.

‘What?‘ Rania shook his hand, urging him to say something. ‘Do you regret the union with me?‘ Her heart hurt when she thought about it, even though it was a mere idea, but it was enough to make her feel awful.

“No, chance, Rania. You belong to me for the rest of your existence, even after that. You are mine.” Maximus kissed her knuckles. “There is something in my mind, but I can’t tell you yet. Let’s talk about this later.”

Is it about me?

Maximus halted. “Yes,” he replied curtly.
