Kill Me Or Let Me Go

Oriana, who served as Arlan's personal aide, would always be by his side, and Roman felt compelled to prepare her for what might come. He hoped that, should she encounter such a situation again, she would not be as shocked and hurt as she was today.

Looking up at Roman, Oriana inquired further, "But won't you tell me what exactly is happening, so..."

"You should not concern yourself with it. His Highness prefers it that way," Roman responded firmly.

Oriana gazed at Roman for a moment, then sighed softly. "Mister Roman, you don't know the exact details of what happened to His Highness, do you? You're simply following your usual duties."

Roman chose not to respond and merely said, "You should go back to your room. It's late."

Oriana contemplated pushing him for more information but recognized the unwavering loyalty of royal servants, of which Roman was a prime example.

Never mind,' she thought to herself. 'I'll find out on my own.'
