Chapter 51: Destroyed Cities for her

"You have destroyed Lorata[1] in a single night, do you even know what explanations I had to prepare for the council of ministers?" King Leonardo asked Santiago who was serenely savoring the cup of tea. He was getting infuriated with each passing moment as Santiago was merely replying to him with a smile. 

Leonardo couldn't believe that this man who was now getting on his nerves flipped the whole city in a single night. It wasn't that he misused the powers of the law protection that was enraging him but the reason behind his sudden moment of loss of control. He was furious because he did it for Persephone Marino, the woman who he claimed to hate the most. And the same woman who he had to use in exchange for Lorenzo. 

Glancing up from the teacup, Santiago gazed at the angry King who could announce capital punishment for him anytime if he didn't provide him any justification.
