Did you hear that?

"We are here, princess." I heard him say. 

I found myself outside the forest but in a different place than last time. This part of the forest didn't have many trees. 

Seth brought me down to my feet but he didn't let go of me. At that moment, it was clear that I was his number one priority.

I know Dav and what he would do if anything bad happens to me but as for Agatha, sadly, no one would do anything if she gets hurt. That was one disadvantage of being a non-royal, no one would seem to care about you. 

Since Seth didn't bother to hold the child's hand, I took it to myself to do so. At least, if I'm being protected by Seth, she would also indirectly be protected. 

"This is a short route to the forest and those creatures badly come through this part," Seth said as he sized both Agatha and me from head to toe. 

In the next moment, Seth began to move into the forest. He used one of the swords to clear our path while I firmly held Agatha.
