Can You Protect Her? (EDITING)

ARSEN'S POV

I went back to the palace after a week and a half since I arrived. I had to extend my stay for a few more days because the workload was just too much. As soon as I arrived at the palace I rested and was given updates by my secretary Samuel on all that had happened while was away.

The following day I requested for Ayan to meet up with me in my wing so we could catch up. I did miss her and Teon a lot more than I thought I would. I wanted the meeting to be a date, it was going to be our first date. So I suggested we have a dinner date together. I sent the servants to relay my request to her and the message she sent back was that she usually has meals with Teon who would be upset if she canceled having dinner with him for me.
