"Father, King Ernest rejected the idea of sending troops to the Imperial Palace." Lennox could feel cold sweats coming out of his temples as he delivers that not so great news to his temperamental father. And as he expected, King Finnick couldn't take this news well.
"That f*cking coward. How dare he oppose me when he couldn't even do anything back then?!" He started kicking the servants in front of him, making them kneel as they receive all the beating.
Even though they look at Lennox with pleading eyes, he couldn't feel sympathy for them. If he did, he'll be the one beaten up by his father instead. His honey yellow eyes that used to be so sweet, turned cold and lifeless. "What about the Logrea Kingdom?"
Lennox flinched when his father turned his gaze back at him. "F-Faith went there to ask about it." He couldn't stop himself from being afraid that he might get hit again.
