Harbor Renovation

As the ships sailed off, Lord Janus turned his head from looking at the harbor to glance at the back of his mistress with a complicated face.

"My lady, are you sure?" His question was filled with concern and doubt.

Trying to ally with such an unknown individual with no background and an unknown history seemed very dangerous to him.

"......." Lady Miranda only stayed quiet, simply clutching her swollen belly and looking down at it.

It seemed she felt allying herself with Alexander gave her and her unborn child the best chance to survive.

The house politics going on in her family were about to turn very nasty.

And she needed every ounce of help she could get.

And Alexander was the only one she had.

Though whether Alexander would actually extend that hand was yet unsaid.

As was how Alexander's territory would be affected by his aiding the Margrave against Sybarsis.

Only time would tell.
