A Man Like None Other

Catalina stared at Jared as she questioned him, “I did save your life, you know. Don’t you have anything to say to me? Moreover, you’re already my man now. Your woman is about to leave you; don’t you have anything to say?”

“Which imperial city are you from?” Jared asked.

Catalina pouted. “Is that all you’re going to say? I’m not allowed to reveal my identity. Father forbade me from telling anyone.”

“I’m your man, aren’t I? Can’t you even tell me?”

Jared was somewhat at a loss for words.

“No, I can’t. We’re not even truly husband and wife yet. What makes you think you’re my man? If you truly wish to be my man, then you must seek my father’s approval for our union. Only his consent holds any weight.”

After Catalina finished speaking, she turned around, ready to leave.

“Where should I look for you? I don’t even know where you are!” Jared asked with a hint of urgency.

“I’ll tell you later,” Catalina said, before leaving with the guards.

Leftblind and Rightblind looked toward Jared, their gazes filled with a touch of confusion.

“Hey, brat! With just this much skill, you’re dreaming if you think you can become Ms. Lantz’s man. You probably won’t have the chance to see her again in the future, so just consider today’s events as a dream.”
