"Someone has been here," Andreas entered the room hastily when he sensed that someone else was in the king's room until a few moments ago.

And since the members of the shadow clan didn't have a strong scent like normal human beings, the bodyguard could only feel that someone had entered the room without consent.

​​

Andreas then immediately approached Mila, who was sitting on the edge of the bed. What else could she do with her hands tied up like that?

"There was someone here before I came." It was not a question but a statement.

Reluctantly, Mila averted her eyes from the open window, and instead started staring at the beam of sunlight coming into the room through it. "Yeah, someone just walked into this room."

"Who was it? Where are they now?" Andreas asked in alarm, while briefly checking the contents of the room.

Mila didn't answer, but just nodded toward the open window. Without wasting much time, Andreas rushed over to see if there was anyone outside the window, ignoring the stabbing pain of the sunlight hitting his bare skin.

"You will not be able to find her, she must have disappeared," Mila said casually as she plopped down on the bed, putting her arms behind her head to be used as a pillow.

"Who is the person that entered this room?" Andreas asked angrily, closing the bedroom window again and pulling the curtains violently so that no more sunlight could enter.

This castle really looked gloomy during the day when all the windows were closed. This was simply like a haunted castle.

"Arabella," Mila answered honestly without a second thought. "I think she tricked the guards out there, so she could get into this room."

Hearing the name, Andreas clicked his tongue loudly, "I told him that girl can't be trusted," he grumbled.

"Right, don't believe her. She even walked into this room wearing nothing, imagine what the elders would say when they found out about it?" Mila provoked Andreas.

"No, the elders will not know about that," Andreas replied to Mila, his forehead wrinkled. He realized he had to be careful every time he faced this future queen, because Mila was always full of manipulation.

And now that her memory had returned, Andreas was sure that her ability to twist words had also come back to her as well.

"Of course they will know," Mila assured Andreas, she then rested her head on her fist as she lay on her side, her misty eyes staring straight at Andreas. "If I ever meet the elders, of course I will tell them this."

"What?" Andreas felt that he had heard wrong.

"I will complain to the elders that Arabella came into this room. Isn't the king's room very sacred? Even a queen should have her own room."

Of course if the elders found out about this, the problems that Liam had to face would only increase. And although this was not something very crucial, some elders who wanted to bring Liam down and limit his movements, of course would be happy to raise an issue and make some unnecessary trouble for the king.

But, then Andreas realized something…

"You have no proof that Arabella was in this room before and no one saw her enter either," Andreas denied Mila's words.

"Yes, that is right. Looks like I can't use that threat to meet the elders," Mila said lightly. She didn't want to meet those old hags either. "But, at least it's nice to see your panicked expression even if it's only for a moment."

Andreas growled in annoyance.

"Don't growl at me, you know that action can be categorized as an offensive act, right? You can get punished for that," Mila warned Andreas. "Where is Liam?"

Andreas' hunch was right about Mila. This woman was very difficult to deal with.

At this point, Andreas remembered Mila's sister; the two of them were completely opposite in nature. Anna was the perfect queen figure to stand beside Liam, and if only that horrible problem didn't come to light...

"Where is Liam?" Mila waved her hand in front of Andreas' face who seemed to zone out.

"The king is meeting the elders," Andreas replied. "After he finishes, he will definitely come to see you."

"Of course he will come to me, this is his room, where else will he sleep," Mila grumbled. "Can you take this off?" Mila shook her bound hands.

"I can't do it without the king's approval." Andreas glanced at the special steel that was used for restraining vampires.

Mila rolled her eyes when she heard that. "You are still the same, you haven't changed at all." Then Mila's attention turned toward the door. "I don't think it's necessary, he has returned."

And not long after that, Liam's figure appeared from behind the door. Liam walked gracefully through the room, approached Mila and stood beside Andreas.

"You can go now, I have a lot of things to talk to her about," Liam ordered.
