Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 561

Chapter 561: Vanished after losing Amelie

"Your Highness, what is your initial impression of this locality?" Ian asked, standing in the front yard. His hands were clasped formally behind his back as he surveyed the small garden plants.

"I have not yet had the opportunity to explore it," Casaio replied simply.

"Then you should. And take Lady Zilia with you," Ian advised. "Just ensure you take the royal bodyguards as well."

"And you won’t be accompanying us? I was under the impression you intended to be my constant shadow," Casaio remarked, a hint of mockery in his tone.

"I have a rather urgent council meeting at the palace to attend, Your Highness," Ian said, giving a slight, respectful bow of his head. "Did I mention that I have also secured a temporary residence in this vicinity for the duration of your stay?"

"No, you did not," Casaio replied.

"I am informing the Prince now. This ensures that should you require me at any moment, I will be close at hand," Ian pronounced with a small, confident smile. He bowed deeply once more and departed.

Casaio shook his head as Zilia emerged and stood right behind him.

"He wishes for us to become acquainted with the people," he began.

Zilia settled beside him. "And build their trust in you. It is a sound strategy. I believe it would be best if we didn’t reveal our faces immediately. What are your thoughts?"

"I agree," Casaio stated. "That approach will allow us to truly observe what our people are enduring." He then asked, "Did you speak to Idris?"

"Yes. He is heading to his early morning training. After you intervened with Jake, he has ceased bullying Idris," Zilia confirmed. Casaio took her hand, and the two walked back inside, heading toward their room.

Casaio, having put on a casual jacket, searched for his black baseball cap.

"You should wear these," Zilia stated, offering him a pair of thin-framed glasses. Casaio put them on and turned to face her. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"It works," Zilia confirmed. She then scanned her options for a hoodie, finally selecting a black one. She pulled it on and adjusted a pair of oversized, dark-rimmed glasses. While Casaio tied the laces of his sneakers, Zilia pulled on her high black boots, which paired well with her skinny blue jeans.

Zilia added a crossbody bag to her outfit, tucking in her phone and other essentials. "Let’s go," she said, a note of genuine excitement in her voice.

"Wait!" Casaio stopped her, pulling out a thick, dark muffler. He wrapped it carefully around Zilia’s neck. "I don’t want you catching a chill."

"Wolves don’t get sick," Zilia countered lightly, adjusting the fabric.

"True, but that’s not a rule, merely a boast," Casaio replied, smoothing the muffler down. "We must be cautious." He peered into her eyes. "Don’t you have to put on makeup?"

"I already did," Zilia replied. "My lipstick is of nude shade."
