234 REGRETS

Having a new goal in mind, Raigon came back out of the cave and proceeded on to fulfill it.

Raigon knew it would be hard for him to endure his days without Zoe.

After taking a nap for a little while at the Castle, he checked on the condition of his family before he pressed on in solving the current issues on hand.

He was about to go to the King's Chamber when the Queen greeted him with a warm smile.

"So how is Azra my dear son? Is he back at Hengcheng?"

She sounded concerned for him, which made Raigon doubt, with all the stories that had been told and her latest actions that prove it.

Still, he is his mother and he still chose to be respectful.

"Not yet, your Majesty. But he will." 

"I'm glad to hear that." She gave one of her sweetest smiles to him and stepped forward so she could give him a motherly touch.

However, Raigon strutted back as if he did not want to be touched by her.
