Petra thought for a long time before stepping forward on her own. "Let me go too. I want to follow you again."
This time, Andrew did not agree. Instead, he spoke seriously. "Petra, you and Juno don't belong to Holtrien. You belong to Dragonfang, to yourselves. You've already suffered enough and fought hard enough in your past. So now I am ordering both of you to stay and guard Throne City. Throne City is your home, and I need you to watch over it for me."
Petra opened her mouth, hesitating. "But I still want to fight alongside you."
Juno added, "Me too."
Andrew patted their shoulders. "You're all my friends. Listen to me. Stay in Throne City, guard our home, and wait for me to come back."
Juno nodded. "Alright. I'll listen to you. Oh, by the way, the crown prince of Eastonia, Vance, has been killed. Right now, only Vance's sister, Iridessa, is alive. She's temporarily staying in Throne City."
Andrew was moderately surprised. "Vance was killed? Who did it?"
Juno's voice turned cold. "He died at the hands of the werewolf progenitor, Ragnar. Iridessa arrived in Throne City with Eastonia's top fighters. She wants revenge for Vance."
Andrew remained indifferent. He had no interest in Eastonia's internal affairs.
Juno's expression turned strange. "Iridessa wants to see you. As soon as you arrived, she asked to meet you, but I didn't allow it."
Andrew frowned for a moment. "Let her come."
Ten minutes later, Andrew received Iridessa in the Throne Hall.


With that, she stood up and suddenly sat in Andrew's lap. She half-closed her eyes and brought her lips close to Andrew's face.

"For this, I'm willing to remain in Throne City forever and ever, becoming your servant, serving you day and night, letting you do whatever you want with me!"
She was truly staking everything on this.
Even Andrew felt the pressure and silently thought he might not be able to withstand it.

Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: Rising from the Ashes (Andrew)
The author is insanely inconsistent with Christina's character. She was loyal enough to withstand torture until she fainted, and refused to call Andrew when she was kidnapped (even though it was out of a misplaced sense of protectiveness due to her lack of trust in him). This shows that despite her family being trash (other than Dougals), she is at least a good peson at heart. Then she suddenly turns into someone spiteful and evil simply because the author is no longer intersted in patching them back up, and has decided to set him up with Lauren and Fran. That's his choice, but at least be consistent....
