Natalia gasped and quickly wrapped her arms around Callum’s neck, whispering, “Callum, there are so many people around, please put me down.”

Natalia’s words were cut short as Callum feigned annoyance. “What? Now you’re not even listening to me?”

Seeing Callum’s displeasure, Natalia gave up on arguing and allowed herself to be carried towards the castle.
