"Going to bed? We had a long flight, and we need some rest. Whatever your reason is for coming here, I suggest you come back tomorrow," I said bluntly. I didn't bother to mask my irritation. "My lady!" Elara gasped beside me, horrified at my tone. Her wide eyes flicked between me and the king as though she feared a storm might erupt any second.

I shrugged off her reaction, rolling my eyes. Titus might be a king, but I wasn't about to bend over backward just to be polite. Not here. Not when we were alone. I didn't have to pretend for him. "Elara, could you give us a moment?" Titus's voice was calm and commanding as he addressed her.

"Of course, Your Majesty," she replied quickly, ready to obey.

"Elara, stay here." You're not going anywhere," I cut in.

Titus's scowl

scowl deepened, his displeasure evident at my direct defiance. But I wasn't about to back down.

"I'm sorry, Sage," Elara murmured, bowing her head as she slipped out of the room in a rush before disappearing faster than I could stop her.

"Elara!" I called after her, but she was already gone. I stood there, feeling the heavy weight of her absence.

When I turned back to Titus, he was watching me with a smirk, his eyes gleaming with amusement. His eyebrow arched as though he found my frustration utterly amusing. "Why are you calling for her? Afraid to be alone with me?" His voice dripped with mockery. I squared my shoulders, meeting his gaze head-on. "I'm not scared of you, Titus. Most importantly, I'm not afraid of you. After everything that's happened, there's nothing left for me to be afraid of, even death."

His smirk only grew, the look in his eyes darkening with mischief. "Who said
