"You are not an official bearer of the title since you are not married yet!"
Edwin's jaw ticked when the topic of his marriage was brought up. How was he going to explain to every person why he couldn't marry the woman he loved?
"That doesn't stop me from fulfilling my duties! You already know that I have found my mate. But she is a human, and I don't want to force anything on her. We will get married at the right time, but for that reason, I cannot sit quietly watching my people suffer.
It is your choice if you want to give importance to my marriage or readiness to face what is about to come. I don't care if you consider me as your leader or not because she..." Edwin pointed his first finger at the sky.
"Moon Goddess has chosen me to be and nobody can change her verdict. So I am going to do what I am suppose to do, with or without your cooperation!"
Edwin's firm words brought silence to the crowd. Nobody dared to open their mouth anymore. They just couldn't!
