"Release the signal," Nicholas said to James, who answered,
"Dora is releasing the signal as we speak." James had just finished speaking when, in the next moment, a firework flew up into the sky and burst into flames.
It was a signal to summon his secret guards, who were staying in the mountains and training day and night in preparation for a day like this.
But it seemed his preparations were not enough, as those scums had caught them off guard.
"Stay here and divide the men as we discussed; I will go and check on the people first," Nicholas said to James, who nodded.
"I understand my Prince," James replied. Nicholas had just taken one step when he paused, hearing the screams of Luciana coming from within the house.
"Protect my wife and son," Nicholas said, and James bowed.
"I will protect them with my life," James vowed.
