26: I'll Protect Him

Eden gasped. The loud burst of the door that tore open and the marching of the guards into the room left, all left him destabilised.

He stepped backwards. His heart pounding as he stared at the swords pointed at him from the guards.

It was over for him. He was never escaping them.

That was exactly what he thought before Elvis immediately walked past him from the back.

Elvis came from the back. And now stood in front of him. His sword raised.

And for the first time, not at him. But his sword was raised at the guards that gathered Eden.

"Put down your swords" Elvis commanded "Retreat this instant"

The guards were beyond shocked. They stared at each other, wondering why the crown prince was taking the stand he was taking.

"Didn't you hear me? Wasn't I loud enough?" He repeated.

And so, the guards slowly began putting their swords on their sides. But that was until the King and others approached.
