Past....
When angel Xion had been living with Darius, people whispered about him.
Some with curiosity at the audacity of Xion as he ordered His Grace to help him wear his clothes and feed him.
Some with blatant disgust at his uncultured actions.
Shouldn't he be happy that his grace was giving him the time of the day? So, why was he so arrogant as to even ask the Archduke to tie his shoes? That too in the court full of ministers.
Much to their chagrin, the northern lord merely chuckled before kneeling on the cold floor and tying the knots!
It wasn't enough, His Grace even carefully placed Xion on his throne while he himself stood beside him like his attendant!
Such a display of affection had broken many hearts and left others to burn with jealousy.
Among them were Lady Anya Hale and her brother, Caspian Hale.
Anya wanted the so-called 'dirty whore' gone from His Grace's side.
Caspian… wanted that 'whore' for himself.
