Rereading, I realise how sad this is – because of her eyesight ☹. The comment was kinda funny until I finished the novel and understood.
She then looked around, as if searching for where Parker was, unable to recognize him.

Aww... Uly's such a cutie

Smart boy - Always find the intent behind a question before answering, especially when you're insecure about someone's feelings.
Riftan watched her as if he were trying to figure out the intention behind her question before slowly shaking his head.

She didn't mention it because she'd lose her informant if she said anything... haha
She did not mention that Ruth had given her a comprehensive explanation after that. It would only subject him to unwarranted ire. Riftan clicked his tongue lightly and tossed a towel on a chair.

Now who's being the "unkind" one...?
"You must do it again and again, my lady," Ruth replied firmly, tossing the dead frog he was holding onto the stump. "The squires have gone to the trouble of catching these toads for us. Don't you think we should put each and every one of them to good use?"

Hahaha... sneaky Maxi getting the latest gos
Maxi looked about nervously. If Ruth was aware of her magic use, there was no doubt that he had also participated in the deliberations with the knights last night. She had a feeling he would not have a problem with sharing what they had discussed.

No! The Duke specifically offered you, Maxi, because he knew that Riftan was drawn to you. Riftan wanted to swear his geas to you... Ahh! So infuriating that they can't read each others' minds or know the other's past.
Maxi bit her lip. The fact that her father had thoroughly deceived and used Riftan filled her with rage, and the reality that she had been the means that had allowed it made her unbearably sad. The Duke of Croyso should have given the young knight he had thrust into danger in his stead the daughter he treasured — Rosetta. That was the recompense Riftan deserved.

Love Ludis! She's the perfect wingman
"I shall accompany you, my lady," replied Ludis assuredly.

Really hope we'll get to see Hebaron as a dad or at least the fun but loving 'uncle' figure for Maxi and Riftan's children.
Collecting herself, she cast a healing spell over the knight's hand, and the wound disappeared before their eyes. Hebaron began to heap praises on Maxi as if he had just witnessed a miracle. His flattery was so overblown that Maxi ended up bursting into laughter, eliciting a smile from the knight.

It's not on here anymore. It was taken down. You can just search "Under the Oak Tree: Riftan's POV" on google and other sites come up.
"You seem not to have realized just how boundless my stamina is. I could march for three days straight without rest and be perfectly fine."

I love the moments when they fight because it's when they actually talk... I wish they could talk more... they can't see past their own insecurities
He rubbed his tongue against hers and gasped for air, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. His look of anguish puzzled her. She was the one who felt tormented by the possibility that he might one day grow tired of her and leave her. Why, then, did he look so pained? Why were his eyes so full of sorrow?

He's probably thinking about your dog he buried... *hides in a corner to cry
There was an edge to his voice. Maxi studied his face, trying to determine what had displeased him.

It's gonna be like some baby animal... right?
She promptly squeezed her lips together and looked around. Riftan gently pulled at her arm to lead her deeper into the stables.

"I had to sleep out in the snow for ten days. My whole body aches, and I can't feel my toes. Come help."

Ahahaha... Hebaron is the best! He knows just how to tease Riftan
"How kind of you." Hebaron's lips curved into a sly smile. "We can take care of ourselves, Commander, so why don't you go put out that pressing fire first?"

She obviously didn't take good enough notes on this... or maybe Ruth didn't explain it well enough - as we'll see later
Maxi's hands flew across the page as she took notes.

Hahaha... Riftan's concerns about Ruth working in the library... not all that far fetched... haha
Ruth flicked his finger, and a fist-sized ball of fire burst into being.

"Of course. Why didn't I think of that?!" There's no way she would have thought that a possibility in her mental state. LOOOVE RUTH! The way he treats Maxi is soo precious
"Why not learn magic instead?" Ruth asked abruptly after examining the pieces of parchment.

No, Muir just can't bring himself to come out of the shadows, not even for Bai Qingqing when the scorpion king hurt her. He thinks Bai Qingqing hates him which has destroyed him to his core. His character has completely changed since hearing her say she wanted him dead.
The three males froze. Nobody had expected the female to run out and fight with a male.
