By now, Selene had gotten up from the ground since she wasn't injured. She didn't intend to run out to stop Xavier from killing the stranger following them but worried about the town guards coming to them again.
Selene was tired of hearing the town guards at the gates. She didn't dislike that her husband caught the attention of the town guards but she was annoyed that the town guards never noticed what they had to put up with to lead to someone dying.
Why was someone else following them now?
"Your shoe," Selene noticed the bloody mess as Xavier started to walk back to her. "We should wash it off quickly. I know where there is water to use."
"That bat, you said the king made the wrong enemy. Is the king following you, me or both?" Selene asked.
"You," Xavier replied.
