Alex didn't say anything and waited for his friend to order his drink.

After the bartender brought another glass of whiskey, Leon took a sip before continuing with his story.

''The three prominent families after our Lionheart's family are:

? The Safari family. They are in charge of the capital's infrastructure and other big cities.

? The Zira family. They are in charge of the finance; they are the second most powerful family in Lionheart after our family.

? Lastly, there is the Tiaret family in charge of the military. There are just behind the Zira family.

My fiancee happened to be from this family. Ariel Kefira Tiaret.''

Alex was surprised because he had thought that his friend's fiancee would be from the second family, the Zira family, because there were the second strongest; logically, the Lionheart family should have aimed at that family.

As if he could exactly read his friend's mind, Leon chuckled.

''You must be thinking why my family didn't choose someone from the Zaria family, right?"

To Leon's question, Alex nodded because it was precisely what he was thinking.

''Well, you're right, but as I had previously told you, every new emperor must choose from one of the three big families. My mother happened to be from the Zaria family, so it's not right for me to choose from the Zaria family, at least not in this generation.''

''Ah! I've forgotten. So, it was the Tiaret's family turn now?" Alex asked after he was reminded of what Leon had previously said.

''Well, you could say that. So, I was talking. My fiancee is someone from a powerful military family; all generals are from that family. In terms of strength, truth be told, there is the second family, but because the Zaria family is strong economically, they are in the second place. In truth, the Tiaret family is the fiercest family; nobody wants to mess with them.''

Leon's eyes were shining as he talked about the Tiaret family; it was to the extent that he appeared like a fanatic talking about his idol.

''So what happened with your fiancee?" Alex asked, cutting directly to the heart of the problem; he would have liked to continue hearing more about this family. Still, he guessed that his friend would keep singing how awesome this family was without really going into the details of the problem.

Leon sighed before explaining.

''You know that when you are forced to marry a perfect stranger by your family, obviously you will not be happy as you didn't choose this person yourself, right?"

Once again, Alex nodded, and Leon continued.

''My fiancee and I were like that. At first, I didn't really think too deeply about this relationship. It was like I did what they wanted without putting effort into improving our relationship to create great chemistry. Our first meeting was blend as the word blend could be but what I would have never expected was that after that meeting, I would keep thinking about my fiancee, what should I say it was-"

''It was like you could only think about her every time you were not thinking about anything else.'' Alex cut off his friend and said. Surprisingly Leon nodded as it was exactly how he felt, he had never expected to feel like that after their meeting.

It was to the extent that for two months after their meeting, he could only think about her alluring figure. He had met many beauties, for example, that seductress Kuina Leon; no other woman could be a seductress like Kuina. He would have never expected that a less beautiful woman, a less seductress, would turn him into something like that.

''So what is the problem? What did you do after finding that you started developing feelings for your forced fiancee.'' Alex asked while sipping his whiskey.

Leon opened and closed his mouth as if he wished to say something but, in the end, decided not to.

''Well, I tried with several meetings to make us closer, but she was like a piece of wood unmoving. It was hard to know what she was thinking. She is like she was just there just for the sake of being there. She just accepted our relationship because it was why her family, our families had decided. As for how she really felt, I couldn't say. It was not like I did not try, but unfortunately, I have never succeeded.'' Leon explained while heaving a long sigh.

Alex stayed silent for a moment before asking his friend. There was something he needed to confirm first.

''Tell me how you feel? Have you really fallen in love with Ariel?" Alex asked, but Leon didn't say anything as if he didn't really know what fallen in love meant. As if it was a foreign emotion.

Alex was forced to reformulate his question.

? ''When you think about Ariel, what do you feel?"

To this question, Leon didn't take too much time before answering.

''I feel like I found a mixing piece, something I've been searching for in a long time.'' Leon honestly answered.

Alex chuckled.

''So, did you tell her what you just told me?"

Leon rolled his eyes at him.

''How can I do that? I'm not good with words. Besides, she is what you can call a muscle head only thinking about training and challenge.''

''That's perfect. It would be best if you used this chance. Between you, who is stronger?" Alex asked after hearing his friend's answer.

''Previously, we were evenly matched, but now I'm not sure maybe I'm stronger, maybe I'm not. She is a monster; I'm not joking when I say this.'' Leon seemed fearful when he said this. Alex wondered how monstrous Leon's fiancee could be for him to exaggerate like this, but this was not the point.

''I'm sure she can read, right?'' Alex asked while hoping that Ariel would be like the female knight in the story, which hobby was to read stories about knights.

Leon nodded. Fortunately, it was precisely like Alex expected; he couldn't stop a smile from forming on his face. He felt like he was a cupidon.

''Then I've got the perfect solution for ya.''
