Auction trap (31)

As I looked at the fourth prince, I couldn't help deeply knitting my brows after hearing him say this.

To anyone else, this should have been a dream.

After all, the promise of a free favour from the fourth prince was something that countless people in this kingdom wanted.

However, it was anything but a dream for me.

I knew that once I made this request, he would be free to do whatever he wanted with me. It would wipe out the debt of this one favour that I had already done for him, freeing him to do what he wanted with me without any regret.

That was the worst case scenario for me.

This time it was killing a prince…what would it be next time?

Would he make me start a coup with him next time?

I definitely couldn't allow that to happen.

But if I were to reject him…would that offend the fourth prince?
