Yur arrived at his destroyed mansion with Xia. "Hey, what are you doing?"
Landing on the ground, she finally let go of him.
"What do you mean?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Marriage this, wife that…" Despite her embarrassment, she was now very frustrated. "I haven't even said yes!"
"You don't need to." Yur didn't walk toward her, instead, he headed toward Quin, who was still healing. "Get up now. Help me find a new place. The King will pay for it."
"What do you mean I don't need to?" Xia stomped her feet, anger rising. "Doesn't my opinion matter?"
Yur sighed. "The reason this is happening is because your opinion matters." He shook his head. "I know you like me."
"I'm simply interested. I haven't developed a real liking yet," she replied.
Sure, Yur was handsome and stirred her restrained desires, but she didn't truly like him, not yet.
