Chapter 137: Run away.
Malia had the voice of an angel and the face of succubus, she was like a seductive demon cto life. Sigrid
was very confident in her looks but meeting Malia tickled her a little. The other two sisters were just as beautiful
and just as seductive. One was playing the flute and one was dancing, moving as if she was boneless.
The wind was obviously in love with her because it lent her assistance, blowing through her hair and the long silk
arms of her dress as if a gigantic fan had been placed directly in front of her.
"Men would kill for one and the prince gets all three." Someone whispered.
The whisper brought Sigrid out of her mind and back to the present. Mauve had already found her position by
Sigrid’s side. The rash and emotional lady-in-waiting was pulling the arms of her dress up.
"Maury, getmy large rolling pin, | will flatten these women like dough and bake them in the sun."
"No." Mrs. Elsworth fiercely glanced at Maury. "If you bring that rolling pin I will make you its first victim." She
whispered sternly and gently pushed Lanai aside. "Your highness, | propose that we handle this with care, we
should first find out who the three women are and what their purpose is."
Sigrid maintained her calm and grace, moving forward with all the poise of a crown princess and royalty. She
walked towards Roland who was sitting in a chair with one leg crossed over the other. His facial expression was
unreadable for he was neither smiling or frowning.
It was difficult to tell if he was enjoying the performance of the three beauties or not. One one hand, he could
have been enjoying it but keeping the joy to himself and on the other hand, he was possibly annoyed or irritated
but didn’t care to voice it out loud.
There were two empty chairs on his side and six knights standing guard behind him. Sigrid sat down on one of
the chairs on his right hand side. Sir Samuel pulled the other one behind and Mauve also took a seat.
Sigrid placed her hand on Roland's arm. "So, what are watching?"
He turned his head and looked at her. "You are back. How was your trip to the mage estate?"

He glanced at the once and brought his eyes back to her. "My mother has ordered my cousins to live with us for
a while. There hwas apparently infested with snakes which gave them a big scare. Their parents are out of
the city at the moment and | have been tasked to care for them."
Sigrid let out a snort, she did not believe that crappy put together story. The De-Kensington family was large with
many estates all around the kingdom. Even if the cousins did not move to the Vale, they had many housing
options to choose from.
"Can we send them back?" she asked directly. "I won't lie to you, | am not a fan. Your mother’s De-Kensington
family has a tradition of marrying cousins to each other whenever they seek to grasp power and magical talent.
You are the crown prince, | am sure that more than a few distant uncles or cousins of your mother have sent
their daughters your way."
Roland grimaced as if she had poked him on a sore spot. "I have never indulged or dreamed of involving myself
in that mess. | propose that you get your facts straight, it is not just the De-Kensington’s, other families do it
too."
"We don’t."
The Thorin family did not indulge in in-house marriages. Even if was a tenth removed cousin whose connection
was thinner than a strand a hair, they would not accept such a tradition__or madness as her grandfather called
i)
"Your family is one of a kind in many ways." he moved his eyes from her to the women that were performing,
Malia’s voice was becoming louder. It was almost as if she was on a mission to shatter every glass on the Vale
with her high pitch.
He turned his head abruptly and whispered to her, "We can always send them to another house, | have five more
in this city alone."
She turned her head to reply, it was an abrupt act that brought the faces close together. So close that she could
smell her favored brand of magical wine on his breath.
"You have been in my wine collection again."
He smiled lazily, neither denying nor
admitting to what they both knew to
be true. Unexpectedly cp ghuckiad, a

"I'd never say dare to say otherwise. Who am | to deny the crown prince what he wants?" she responded, her
voice as low as a whisper ad her words layered.
Roland's breath caught, his cool composure wavering. "And what us it that you think | want right now?" he
whispered back.

Sigrid’s voice faltered as she murmured. "You want to run away with me?"
"Run away?"
She nodded. "To Stormwind castle.and you. No cousins and no watchful royal eyes. It can be considered to
