Nobody was as devoted to you like Helio Niccolo.

It was an odd sight to see for both nobles and commoners.. how the cold and calculating Marquess changes by your mere touch or a glance.

He was a lovesick puppy when it came to you, always yearning for your touch and your approval--the strongest knight in the Vasilios Empire was at your every beck and call.

Oftentimes, such affections.. were overbearing. The worse you've seen of Heli was when he was jealous.

..just like he was now.
