154 The king

Ander gazed at Royan with a lot of questions in his mind. He was curious about this father of his that made Royan so scared. The Phoenix paled like he had seen a ghost and moved away from Ander.

"Nothing as such is going on. I was only joking with you Razaan," he uttered coldly. The warmth that Ander was used to seeing on the boy's face was gone and all that was left was an indifferent face.

"Relax Royan, I was only joking too. Do you really think that I would smile while saying that man's name?" Razaan asked.

Royan's eyes went went wide with shock, Razaan had thought it was due to his words before he felt the change in temperature.

The room was so cold that his icy hands shook. He turned around and froze when he spotted his father standing right behind him.

"Whose name won't you say with a smile?" the king's sweet voice asked them.

Royan took his place beside the prince and held his arm. "Greetings father in law," he greeted to the king.
