Acantha was startled when she was about to knock on the door when suddenly it opened, and Helion jumped out from it and hugged her.
"Ahhmm," she looked when she heard some coughs and saw her father, who was standing behind Helion who broke himself from hugging her when he heard her father's cough.
"Where have you been, Aki?" Her father asked her as he looked worried.
"We went to the north," she answered awkwardly as the duke was still eyeing Helion, who just acted like nothing happened.
"And what do you think you're doing hugging my daughter?" Her eyes widen when her father addresses what happened.
Acantha saw Helion's mouth open when they were suddenly interrupted by some noise from the Empress.
"What was happening to her?" They all hurried and saw that Hernand seemed to be panicking when the Empress continued moaning in pain.
"I don't know," Hernand answered the Emperor, who was panicking at the sight of his wife.
