Ready

Arren was only looking at Spade with confusion in his eyes. 

"Spade?" He called the alpha's name again after a few seconds, but he didn't respond. He was really curious about this key. 

Although deep inside of him, Arren was also not convinced that it was a key for something since it really didn't look like a key to open something at all but like jewelry in the shape of a key. 

"What's this for?" he repeated his question, slightly waving the key. Arren's eyes didn't leave the alpha, as though wanting to read his expression, but Spade's face still looked calm as ever. 

Instead of Spade answering, the Duke's voice sounded shocked.

"Your Majesty?" the duke called Spade, which made Arren turn at his father, his brow knitted, becoming even more baffled as he returned his gaze again to the alpha. 

With the two looking at him, there was only a trace of a smile on Spade's lips. He opened his mouth and leisurely answered Arren's question.
