You are a royal princess. Your social status is so high that many nobles approach you, isn't it nice to have so many friends? no, they treat you well because there is a purpose behind it all. but behind their backs they all talk bad about you.

Tonight the kingdom is holding a party, and you are there. as usual, many nobles approached you to chat, after you finished chatting, they started talking about you about bad things, like untrue gossip, until you felt like everyone in the room was whispering and talking about you and it made you uncomfortable.

but that didn't last long, the whisper disappeared when a man with strong hands covered your ears from behind. That's Lucas, your knight. he covered your ears with his palms so you wouldn't hear bad words from other nobles. he looked at all the guests and nobles with a sharp gaze and was ready to kill. he is so protective.

finally he takes his hand away from you, but the distance between you is quite close, and Lucas whispers

"Princess, do you want me to kill them? I'm ready, for your sake..." Lucas said in a heavy and serious tone, he really meant what he said.
