Wife's Job Is To Remove Clothes

Meanwhile, on the way back to Ahrens, Erin shared a carriage with her father and brother.

"Finally, His Majesty and all of us can be at peace," Walys remarked, feeling as if a great weight had been lifted off his chest.

"Yes, Father," Euron replied. "Prince Arlan and everyone involved have done a commendable job."

At the mention of the two new lords, Erin frowned inwardly and narrowed her eyes at her brother. He hadn't told her about her own bodyguard, even when they had arrived at the royal court together.

Euron sensed her displeased gaze and said, "He was your bodyguard for days, and you couldn't catch him. That's your fault. I feel like all our teachings have been in vain."
