Ezekiel suddenly quickly moved out of the bed.
"What's wrong?" Katelina asked, noticing him hurriedly putting his trousers back on.
"I have to go back to the celebration. Asura and Cora are on their way here to accompany you," Ezekiel said with a reassuring smile.
"Kiel," she called, giving him a look that demanded more details.
"Remember Levi's vision about the rider of the black dragon? He felt the same ominous presence at the party," he explained. "I'll look into it and be back soon."
Katelina was lost for words. She opened and closed her mouth, but no sound came out. As soon as Asura knocked, Ezekiel kissed her forehead and quickly left.
Her face reddened when Asura entered with a teasing smile. Realizing she was still naked, Katelina quickly covered herself with the sheet.
Asura chuckled. "Hmm, His Majesty can't get enough of you," she said, adding, "Let me prepare you a warm bath."
