Chapter 109: Too Precious

Gale stopped right in front of Swan's door. The cat maids were guarding the front and quickly kneeled when they saw him. 

Gale put his hands behind his back to hide the pearl necklace and said, "Open the door, I want to see my wife."

The cat maids were confused. It was rare for His Majesty to enter the room from the front door, as he would usually leap to the balcony or enter through the window. 

Concealing their bewilderment, they obediently opened the door. Gale's eyes immediately fell on Swan who sat on the bed while staring at the burning woods inside the fireplace for comfort, as the castle had gotten even colder after sunset.

Swan turned and smiled at Gale, "What's with your smile? Did something good happen today?"

Gale stepped in and the cat maids closed the door behind him.

"Yes, the fishmen from the West Sea have finally finished my commission," Gale replied.
