In a while, the entire Dixon Palace was awake again. From the guards to maids, everyone had to wake up by the queen's order to find the uncivilized pup. Though some had their questions in their mind, they didn't want to oppose against Ayra's decision. Everyone knew the fates of those maids who tried to drift apart their relationship. Not only that, they dared to disrespect the queen. The batch of maids changed overnight after a painful trail in dungeon and was thrown in distant villages in where living or earning were difficult. Then everyone had their final realization that their king would show no mercy when it came to their queen's well being.
Hugging the velvet shawl around her body, Ayra was pacing around the palace, used her high piercing voice to call the pup but nothing worked as if it had dissapared in the air. The pup was new to this palace and was so small that he had no knowledge about reality. He could be lost or harmed easily. That's where Ayra's fear laid.
