Turning their heads, they saw Nathaniel with his hands cuffed, he was in his usual attire.

The black shirt with matching trouser and gray waistcoat accompanied with his gloves.

His sleeves rolled to the elbow perfectly, asserting his dominance with a plague doctor's mask in his hand indicating-

He lived as the plague doctor and shall die as one.

The world doesn't know Nathaniel Alroy, they are not aware of his existence but everyone was aware of the terror Plague Doctor holds.

"You only have five minutes." The officer said, motioning to him to go inside.

Nathaniel was glaring at Sebastian and replied, "I only need two."

"Nathaniel." Sebastian smirked, turning to him when he took slow steps towards him.

Zariah's body became numb when she saw him, her heart was about to leap out of her chest as tears brimmed in her eyes, shivering when he came closer, she took support from the couch.

It stung when his eyes didn't move to even glance at Zariah.

Countless words, things, thoughts, feelings- how could she pour them all in five minutes?

"Honestly, dignity doesn't suit the man who is nothing without his family hierarchy or perhaps you love being a misogynist pig?" Nathaniel mocked, smirking darkly at Sebastian who smirked back at the retort.

"Does it hurt to know your wife's reality? I merely told her what she is." Sebastian shrugged calmly but the vile smirk stayed to find Nathaniel pissed.

"But the fact remains she is Zariah Alroy. My wife."

Zariah's heart skipped a beat when Nathaniel announced strictly, warning Sebastian to seal his lips to speak a word.

Sufiyan smirked at the tension Nathaniel created in a heartbeat and stood up. Standing beside Zaviyaar as they both were indulging in the heat collecting between these two.

"And if another word escaped your lips against her, I wouldn't mind dragging another soul to hell with me."

Nathaniel threatened Sebastian openly, outraged to find anyone taunting her.

Only he is allowed to rectify her mistakes, remind her of her weaknesses, not anyone else.

"Doesn't sound good when your breaths are limited." Sebastian scoffed, folding his arms and rolling his eyes off to consider his threat a fatuous enunciation.

"My breaths don't matter. Whether I live or not, my reign will never die." Nathaniel retorted, recalling the authority he had managed to hold.

"I am the Plague Doctor. All of you combined cannot defeat me."

Taking another step closer, Nathaniel glared direly into his soul, announcing.

"And I am warning you, Sebastian, If you were found anywhere near my wife, You better consider it a war then."

Sufiyan and Zaviyaar were taken aback at the augmenting tension while Zariah was taken aback, she didn't expect Nathaniel to openly challenge Sebastian.

"You know you are going to die, Nathaniel, don't you?" Sebastian laughed, not taking a single word seriously.

"Will my people too? Will the terror my people induce too? What can it alter?"

Nathaniel arched a brow which died his laughter as they both were scowling at each other.

"What an amazing view." Zaviyaar whispered with a chuckle.
