The faces of all the knights were still pale and they were frozen in fear. They have already checked the whole area four times and there was no place for mistake!

"They have run away, right?" it was a simple sentence that started the truth but it was enough to drain blood from all of their faces!

When Leo had captured the assassins, others would have been alert and left the place to save their lives but they still remembered how William had told them that he would kill all of them if they were not able to find the rest of the group!

Looking at the faces of all the staff, the aide of William gulped. His sturdy figure trembled slightly and his heart turned cold yet he still took a few steps towards his master.

"Your highness!" William who was still staring at the burnt wood that was still warm, turned to him and swept a glance at all of their dread filled figures!

"The men want to harm my family. To kill my heir to be specific and he would take the benefit of the crowd of the marriage to attack them again!

Even after being at such a high post and having all the knights under my son. Shall I wait for the enemy to enter my house and kill us?" they all bowed their heads with guilt.

Though they were putting all of their efforts in finding the old man, he was a sly man who always slipped away from their hands as if he already knew their next step.

They were ashamed to lose from an old man even when they all were one of the best knights of the empire!

"We will not return to the palace or our homes until we find the old man, your highness!

We will sacrifice our lives to save the family who has given us another life!" they all nodded when the words left the mouth of the aide!

William closed his eyes as he tried to calm himself but the anxiety was engulfing him. There was no way that the man was so cunning that he was able to save himself every time.

He must have a spy among them! But who? They all were working with him for ages!

"Two days! I am giving you all two days! Find him no matter what!" they all nodded their heads and bowed with respect as he turned, ready to leave when he signalled his aide to follow him!

"Your highness!"

"I want the security of my family and palace to be increased by our most trusted knights! There is a mole between us!

I am going to work on this matter personally now!" even though he had thought about it! He nodded as they both were the only one to leave while the knights started searching nearby places!

On the other side..

"If you are tired, then sleep. I will wake you up when we reach the palace!" Evan nodded as she was barely keeping her eyes open.

The soft movements of the carriage was like a rocking chair and she leaned on his chest and closed her eyes.

Leo whose face was still red started to turn normal as he was still petrified by her statements!

'I do not mind if you like this kind of.. Arrangement for our first night!' What in the world did she mean by that?

He had always thought that her acting was bold when she came closer to him while they showed it to Olivia or Aurora. But could it be that she liked all that and did it intentionally!

Did that mean she wanted to spend tonight with him and he lost a golden chance thinking she was only trying to return the favours!

His face turned gloomy with the very thought of it! Should he ask her if the offer was still there? He turned to her to wake her up but when his eyes scanned her tired face and puffy eyes, he halted!

She looked so tired that he did not have the heart to wake her up!

"Sigh! Since it was my mistake, I can only bear with it and wait for two more days!" taking a deep breath he closed his eyes as he leaned to the window when his eyes fell on a horseman that was following them.

He tapped the wall of the carriage and a voice came from the other side,

"My lord,"

"Stop the carriage for a minute and take care of the lady!" he had already sent all the knights he had called for when they caught all the assassins but he did not want to take the chance when Evan was sleeping so carefree!

What if those horsemen call for more after assessing their situation. It would be better to get rid of him when he was alone!

With that thought, he held the girl gently and adjusted her head on a plush cushion with a few on the ground in case she fell off and came out of the carriage!

The horse stopped at a distance but did not turn back when the horseman noticed Leo coming towards him.

"Who are you and why are you following us?" His imposing aura and tall stature was no less than an emperor that forced others to follow his commands.

If it would have been anyone else they would have shivered in fear but the old man only smirked as took off his cloak that he had not taken off even in front of Evangeline,

"Do you know now!" said the man with an arrogant face as he jumped off from the horse!

Leo frowned and stared hard at the man! Should he know who he was! But no matter how much did he look at him, he did not seem to remember him,

"No! I don't! Who are you?"

"........" embarrassed!
