Sebastian’s POV

“Kissed? Really?” I found myself repeating slowly when I heard my dad sneer.

“Or what else?” He questioned before jabbing a finger on my shoulder.

“It’s already decided so give up before you get hurt even more.” He informed and I stayed still in my place while the others dispersed.

It wasn’t too long when I heard another voice whispering behind my ear.

“What does it feel like without being able to see?”

As if someone poured a bucket of cold water over my head, I was shell shocked. The voice is unfamiliar and that of a male.

Who is it?

I was lost completely…

Who is this person? I don’t know what face I am making right now but to be outed by an unknown person was really scary.

What should I do?

“Pffftt… Look at this face now. ‘Prince’ Sebastian!” Hahahah…

My world came to a standstill. His laughter was irritating. Could it be that this is Elma’s alliance?

She tried to open her mouth to ask when I shook my head in answer.“Not now. Could you bring it urgently?” Asking, my head slightly turned to my left when a loud howl sent shivers down my spine.“Okay.” She mumbled and passed her orders quickly.“Is this regarding the wolves?” She questioned, shocking me.Am I readable?
