Chapter 14. Long-awaited relief

The forest where the hunt took place with the participation of the Northern Duchess and the Crown Princess of the Ruven Empire was turned upside down.

The search for the Duke's youngest daughter had been going on for several hours, and so far had yielded no results. The situation, which was not developing in the best way, was escalating more and more.

— My fiancee has disappeared on your territory, — Kaena de Ronan said through gritted teeth, — Duchess, how are you going to take responsibility for this?

Serious sparks flared between the two dignitaries. Nevertheless, Celina de Loon, keeping her face impassive, calmly replied to her:

— Your Highness, there is no doubt that I am to blame for what happened... My people failed to take proper care of security. I will do everything in my power to help you in your search.
