Attack All At Once

"....." Damien stared at the brazen messenger. His lips curled into a strange smile. 

"Very well. Then I want to write a letter before leaving. Until I return, all the powers would return to my grandfather. He would be the new duke of the territory." Eve froze at his words. Last time, they had taken Ian and a few knights with them. But it was already strange that they did not allow knights to go with them. But Now, Damien's words had made her worst nightmare a reality.

Did he know already? Is that why he was trying his best to make her happy? Her heart shivered. Was happiness not in their fate? But if that was what, he had decided. She would not be a coward and accompany him in this journey. She wrapped her hands around his arm as the messenger nodded and the letter was written and left with his signature.
