A voice rang out, filled with excitement and urgency.
Before Nathan could react, a stunningly beautiful girl threw herself into his arms.
Nathan caught her before she could stumble, his hands steady against her shoulders. As he took a closer look, a realization struck him—she hadn't been present lately. He had heard whispers about her departure, that she had left on a trip to another city. But now, knowing she had been in Breistan all along, he felt he should have suspected it earlier.
"You're here again?" Nathan asked, his voice carrying a note of exasperation.
"It's so dull in the capital," Ameriah responded, pouting slightly. "My sister is always too busy, and you are as well… I had no one to talk to."
"You should leave immediately," Nathan said, his tone firm and uncompromising.
Ameriah's eyes widened in surprise, a flicker of hurt flashing across her expression. "W…why?" she stammered, visibly taken aback.
