Drewes's Point of View
The Duke's Estate
"Excuse me for a minute, but I need to steal my wife." I told the kitchen staff that were catering to my wife's every whim. Continue reading on No_veLbIn
She eyed me for a moment before she reached out for a tray of freshly baked goods. "Why?" Luthi inquired.
I rolled my eyes. "You can eat your desserts whenever you want."
There was a skeptical look in response. "Can I get that in writing?"
Turning to the chef, I immediately spoke. "Please put my wife on-"
"No! No, no!" She quickly said and put the tray down. "Come along, dear." Grabbing my hand, the two of us teleported out of the kitchen. "To threaten my snacks and cravings... How dare you!" It was an accusation I was more than familiar with.
"I would never threaten your desserts. You technically never let me finish." I told her as I pointed at her. "So, you have no clue what I was really going to say."
"What were you going to say?"
Moving to my desk, I held up a few papers. "It matters not. We need to talk."
I nodded. "I see no reason not to."
Slowly, Luthi began nodding. "We can take our time, and if she does summon us, we just ask for more time."
"Agreed. We just go about our daily lives like normal."
"Then how should we handle Arthur?" That got me to frown. "When he comes back, there is going to be a clash between the two..."
Taking a deep breath, I exhaled slowly through my nose. "I know." Scratching my eyebrow with my middle finger, my mind raced. "The question is, how ambitious is Arthur. Does he seem like a man to covet the throne?"
Luthi shook her head. "Doubtful. From what I know, he hates how large his mansion is." She finally sat down across from me. "There is more to Arthur than meets the eye."
"I know."
"There are rumors he is even stronger than the Priestesses."
"I know." I repeated as my scratch hardened.
"We're missing information." She said, and I just sighed. "I know, you know." Luthi said before I could in a mocking tone. "So," My wife immediately continued. "Where do we get the information we need? If we want to stay ahead of whatever plans Arthur is concocting, we need to figure out what his goals are."
My head shook back and forth. "There is no one we can ask without tipping Arthur off. When he gets back, the last thing I want to deal with is a man who is known for killing nobles in crowded rooms and getting away with it. If anyone has information, it will be someone close to Arthur."
Luthi hummed out in thought. "This isn't good."
I hummed back. "No. No, it's not."
