"It's just that I am overwhelmed with happiness. I have never thought that I would be able to walk with you hand in hand." he muttered softly as he bowed his head and then took a few steps back.
Hazel wanted to assure him but before she could say anything, she noticed two men coming out of the palace in council uniform.
