She hadnt thought Blain would release her easily. Leah knew there was nothing he wouldnt do. But still, she had never expected him to do something like this.

Leah was in the villa, and still he had set fire to the surrounding orchard, knowing it would endanger her.

Ishakan clicked his tongue.

“Irritating.” Glancing back, he bent and kissed Leah on the forehead. “You woke up.”

Her eyes were still a little dazed, and she nodded.

“Mura,” Ishakan said. There was no hint of urgency or alarm in his voice, and Mura poked her head out from behind Haban, smiling as her eyes caught Leahs. The Kurkan woman was as calm as her king.

“Its nothing serious, so dont worry,” Ishakan added as he put on his robe, and ordered Mura to remain with Leah as he left with Haban.

“The air is not good here,” Mura observed as she quickly helped Leah to change her clothes. “Wed better wait for Ishakan somewhere else.”

Handing Leah a wet handkerchief to cover her nose, they left, but as they were walking down the corridor, Leah suddenly stopped by the windows.

“…Leah?”

There were knights approaching, and she could see the Kurkans gathering in front of the house. Dark smoke from the burning peach trees was drifting up into the sky, and the flames were spreading, whipped in all directions by the wind. Soon, it would surround them.

They had to leave this place now.

But no one else seemed anxious about the fire. They werent making any move to escape. As she saw Ishakan moving in front of the Kurkans with Haban and Genin at his side, Leah knew she couldnt leave like this.

“Leah!”

Without hesitation, Leah turned and headed back, and Mura only hesitated a moment before she followed.
