"What....?"

I blinked, I was speechless. I don't know what he was talking about.

"You adopted a child 5 years ago, right?"

I nodded.

"How you know?"

"As you can see, that child is belong to the Duke Derek"

My jaw dropped when I heard that name because Derek Rareverk was the villain from this novel. I can't believe what I just heard, Duke Derek, the cold-hearted tyrant has a child! And that child is my adopted daughter!

"Wait! Wait! Are you sure?"

He nodded.

"I think you are mistaken"

He shake his head, disagree with my answer.

"I don't think so. The Duke already ordered me to take his child, he also give me the address"

He handed me a small piece of paper, I examined carefully the information and it's true. But, I won't believe it no matter what.

"If it's true, I won't give her to him!"

I hold Violla very tight in my arms, I won't let her go because it was giving me a suspicion of this two individual.

"Sir Lucian, please obey or you will got hurt"

He glared.

"Don't talk to my daddy like that!"

Violla shouted although she looked scared, she doesn't understand what's happening right now but my mind only telling me to protect her.

"Sir Julius, what should we do?"

The knight asked.

"Well, we don't have a choice. It's time for the plan B"

The knight nodded, he quickly snatched Violla from me. I was startled, I tried to take Violla back but he hit me at the back of my neck. I lost my consciousness immediately, fell into a deep abyss.

[1 hours later]

My eyes slowly open, brought me back into the reality. I touch the back of my neck, I hissed. It's hurt, I think it's bruised a little but I can't think of myself first. I need to find Violla and I know where she was, Duke Rareverk's Mansion.

I took my hat and put it on, closed the bookstore early. I rented a horse and immediately ride it toward the Duke Rareverk's Mansion at the north.

Don't worry, Violla! Daddy coming for you!

After 30 minutes of riding the horse, the mansion now visible in my sight. I was afraid if the Duke would hurt Violla, my mind couldn't stop thinking what worst thing he could do to her.

I stopped the horse when I near the gate. There was two guard, guarding the gate for their master. One of the guard stop me to know what kind of business I'm doing here.

"Young man, who are you?"

He asked with a serious look on his face.

I get off of the horse, sighed since I don't know if the guard would let me in.

"I am Lucian. I'm here to take my daughter back! Please, let me in"

I declared.

Both of the guard look at each other, doesn't know how to deal with this situation. One of the guard contact their leader by using a Connecter, a shape of earpiece. It's help them to communicate more efficiently from a long distance or communicate to all guard at one time.
