Freya was completely serious. If she could not be with Micah, she would rather spend the rest of her life alone.

Micah was silent, just about to say something when Freya spoke first. "Mr. Micah, I've never seen you with a woman. Do you... like men?" She could not even meet his gaze as she asked, her voice trembling slightly. Micah's expression darkened immediately.

Before he could respond, Pharaoh strode into the room, cutting through the tension. "Good, you're awake. Take these meds," he said, handing a small packet of medicine to Micah.

Without a word, Micah took the medicine and swallowed it. Freya quickly offered him a glass of water, which he accepted. But before anything else could be said, Pharaoh shot Freya a pointed look, and she quietly excused herself, leaving the father and son alone. "Salterra has sent an envoy," Pharaoh stated. "When you're well enough, I want you to handle the negotiations."

Micah frowned. There hadn't been any contact between Salterra and the Yaren Tribe for years, and now, out of the blue, they send an envoy? It was obvious this had something to do with Nash.

"I understand," Micah replied curtly.

Despite his injuries, Micah met with the envoy, a strikingly beautiful woman. She greeted him with a calm composure. "I've come to discuss a potential partnership between our nations," she began. "Salterra is in need of certain medicinal herbs that your tribe possesses in abundance."

She paused, her eyes locking onto Micah's. "And I also need your help to arrange a meeting with Nash. He is the Third Prince of Salterra, and I have urgent matters to discuss with him."
