"Grandpa, it cannot be me. I have just arrived remember? I still want to explore Lireya and other places. Besides, I already found my mate."
The guest's face contorted into an ugly expression but it was so fleeting that nobody saw it. 'What does she meant by she found her mate?'
An awkward silence descended into the room. Nobody spoke for a minute.
'How foolish!' Zanzara looked down to hide the smirk on her face but it did not escape the keen eyes of the man who was sipping tea.
'She rejected it just like that? Does she knew what opportunity she is giving up? Just how many kings are there in the whole world? Only four!' Tatiana looked at her younger cousin. 'But then she is still too young and the king is already thirty years old.' She cast a furtive glance at the king who looked very powerful and virile compared with men in their mid twenties.
