Childhood Sweethearts

Hearing people gasp and murmur about Alora being close to Arihan, Agost clenched his jaws and grabbed Alora's arm. He pulled her away, glaring at Arihan who was repeatedly catching Alora's attention. 

Agost strongly believed Arihan purposefully being mysterious and aloof to make Alora curious about him.

Arihan's brows twitched as soon as he heard Alora wince in pain. But Vidor grabbed his arm before he could break Agost's arm in front of everyone.

Agost's face was dark. He looked down on Arihan, asking through his teeth, in a low voice. "Princess Alora is young. You aren't, are you, General Darwin?"

… A few minutes ago …

Agost had his eyes on Alora while the partner swapping continued on the dance floor. Agost was annoyed as soon as Alora was stolen by Arihan on the dance floor. 

He tried to get to Alora when Alora tripped but Charlotte didn't let him move. Charlotte kept speaking about the Hamilton family and how good-looking he was.
