He has proposed the hand of his own daughter and asked the king to not let princess Silja marry prince Donovan.
But king Zachary has denied his proposal without thinking twice.
At the end of a few heated discussions, he left with a stomach full of anger.
And after that he hardly met the king. More like he has no courage to do so, but how could he tell that to these people.
"Alright... alright.. let me go and find out about the matter," the old man moved his huge belly and walked out of the ground.
But as soon as try to exit, one of the soldiers who were standing there in plain clothes stopped him.
"You can not go out," the man held an emotionless face as he stretched his hand out.
Sir Marcus's face instantly fell as she heard that.
"Who are you to stop me? Do you know who I am?" The man turned his head in the direction of the soldiers with force. The soldiers were all in simple clothes
"I'm ordered by Prince Samuel that no one should leave the ground, despite whatever position they hold," the soldiers replied in robotic voice.
He knew that the one he was talking about was the Grand Duke but he had no choice but to stop him. After all, he had received orders directly from prince Donovan and Samuel.
"Prince Samuel?" Marcus creased his eyebrows. The soldiers took out his badge that was proof that he was a member of the army. The duke saw it and furrowed his eyebrows.
"Then where is prince Samuel? No matter what, he can not detain us here like this." Marcus inquired.
"I don't know anything apart from that no one is allowed to leave," the man tried to be polite as much as he could.
He didn't want to offend the duke nor did he want to cause commotion.
"Then go tell prince Samuel that I want to talk to him," the duke said in his authoritative voice.
The soldier stood there in a dilemma. He didn't know what he should do.
Samuel has clearly said that they are not allowed to move away from their spot. And he couldn't go and ask the prince himself to come Just because someone asked for him, can he?
Seeing both of them talking for long his superior walked in their direction.
"What's going on?" The man asked. He was the sub commander. Seeing him the soldier heaved a sigh of relief.
"Go being prince Samuel, I want to know why we are detained here without our knowledge," the duke repeated his words.
By now many other guests have also joined them.
Seeing that situation was not as calm as before the commander looked at his soldiers and signaled him to go bring prince Samuel over.
The man bowed and soon Samuel came walking in their direction.
"Prince Samuel," the duke , was the first one to greet.
After all Samuel may be no more than a little kid in front of him but his status was even high. And what was even more high was Samuel's pride.
He wasn't someone who could be questioned just like that, not even by the higher officers of the royal court.
Samuel looked at the duke and lifted his eyebrows.
"We are waiting for such a long time for the wedding to happen but there is no sign of the bride and groom. Plus these soldiers are even districting everyone to leave. So we were a bit worried about what was going on," no matter how dissatisfied he was, sire Marcus didn't dare to show it on his face as he asked rather worried expressions.
"There are some problems happening in the city. Some dwarves have attacked the city. That's why brother Donovan has left to take the situation under control," Samuel lied without betting his eyes.
All the people who heard him widened their eyes in fear. All the news of dissatisfaction turned in worried gasps.
"As for keeping you guys here, brother didn't want to put all your life in jeopardy so he made special security arrangements for all the estimated guest presents here. He and father said that you guys should stay here until the situation is not in control," Samuel added.
"Oh my god? The Dwarf attack. When did that happen? Why does no one know?" Someone raised questions amid the commotion.
"Because since evening you guys are here," Samuel narrowed his eyes at the man who spoke.
The man instantly shut his mouth.
"If the dwarves have attacked us we should go and help prince donovan," the one who spoke was a minister. He was a rather loyal and good person. One of the ministers who was actually by Zachary's side without ulterior motives.
"Don't worry minister Oliver. My brother has the situation under control," Samuel moved his head in direction of the minister.
He nodded his head slightly as he spoke. The minister narrowed his eyes before he understood that at the moment all he needed to do was stay silent and watch.
"So please cooperate and stay safe and sound here where there is guarantee of your security," Samuel spun shameless lies. Actually it wasn't him who came up with this bluff.
It was over one and only Zivan.

He knew that if they leaked the news of Silja kidnapping no one would stay put and cause more and more trouble.
Plus it can also alert the actual culprit.
So this was a good reason.
Even though many present won't believe this foolish reason, it will still be enough to buy some time for his brother.
Otherwise the straightforward person like Samuel would never think about lying like this.
People gathered around Samuel asking more details about which Samuel lie even more.
And that's how people calm down for sometime.
But not everyone.
Kruel and Evillene who were sitting in one corner exchanged gazes.
They were sitting alone in one corner where everyone avoided them like plague.
After all who would be brave enough to approach the man who has blood of uncountable dragons on his hand.
And the woman who was a pioneer of all the sufferings of dragons.
All they could do was send a hating glance at them.
"Attacked by dwarves?" Kruel who has heard everything from afar lifted his eyebrows.
"They are spinning lies," Evillene smiled.
"What do you think is going on," she asked her son and asked.
"Must be related to the human princess. She was late for the ceremony and soon prince Donovan left," Kruel gauseed.
"I'm thinking the same," Evillene nodded.
Her lips curled up in a smile as she thought how there was not a single day when dragons don't suffer.
Even on the day of the wedding something was wrong with the bride.
She felt oddly satisfied in her heart.
Well she wasn't the only one who was satisfied with the commotion.
There was one more middle aged couple who was observing everything with a smile on their face.
It was the same couple who was planning this kidnapping with their daughter last night.
"Seems like she didn't mess anything up this time," the middle aged man said in a small voice, looking at his wife.
"She is my daughter after all. I knew she would do it," the woman said proudly.
"Your daughter. Have you birth her out of air? She is my daughter too," the man humphed.
"Huh, now you remember that. Who was last night who was scolding our daughter," the woman stretched the word 'our daughter' sarcastically.
"Yes yes. Just forget it," the man said, a bit embarrassed. The woman rolled her eyes at her husband.
"Now just pray that she executes the later part without any issues and doesn't get caught. This time we have tried to mess with prince Donovan himself," the man's forehead creased a bit.
"If she gets caught, Prince Donovan will wipe out our whole family tree from the roots," the man shuddered, thinking of the consequences.
"Don't speak such inauspicious things. Why are you hellbent on bringing such bad luck to our family," the woman scolded without any hesitation. The man tried to explain his point of view but the woman was simply not ready to understand and the benter continued in one of the corners away from other people's eyes.

Donovan was currently standing outside the room as he waited for Arla to regain her consciousness. It has been almost two hours since Silja has been kidnapped but there was yet no clue about her. Their only lead was Arla and Mira.
They had brought them to the hut of Orphelia - the witch. (Same Witch who has detected Silja's mysterious bloodline. Chap 57 - 58.)
He could have brought her to a normal healer but Donovan didn't want to waste any time.
Orphelia was experienced and faster. Generally she only helps in some dire situations only but today was a special case.
