The young beastman had silky hair and wore spotless white clothes, exuding an air of ethereal grace.
The moment he laid eyes on Veronica, intense admiration and affection filled his gaze. He said sincerely, "My lady, the first time I saw you, I was completely captivated by your grace. If you'll allow it, I'd like to be your bondmate."
His voice was soft yet firm, full of respect for Veronica and hope.
He hoped to win Veronica's heart with sincerity. In fact, even if Illusia hadn't sent him to get close to Veronica, he would have been willing to do so. It was only natural for anyone to fall for such a gentle and powerful female.
Veronica was completely caught off guard. She had never expected someone to make such a direct request.
The young beastman's eyes sparkled with determination; he looked as if he was driven by a strong desire to bond with her.
Veronica had never encountered a situation like this before and didn't know how to respond.
Flustered, she waved her hands, trying to make her position clear. "I already have a bondmate, so I'm really sorry—I can't accept your offer."
She tried her best to keep her tone gentle, not wanting to hurt the young beastman's feelings.
But the young beastman didn't seem ready to give up just yet.
He dropped to one knee in front of Veronica, his hands clenched into fists, looking very sincere, and said, "Given how remarkable you are, it's only fitting that you have multiple bondmates.
"Besides, a precious female like you deserves more love and protection. One more bondmate means one more person ready to lay down their life for you."
Hearing those words, Veronica couldn't help but feel that the values here were completely different from the world she came from.
She knew that females here held high status, and beastmen were willing to give everything—even their lives—for them. But she never wanted any special treatment because of who she was.
She helped the young beastman to his feet, smiling as she said, "I appreciate your kindness. But I believe that all lives are equal. I only wish to bond with those I truly approve of. So while I'm grateful, I can't accept your offer."
The young beastman froze at her words, thinking, 'Equal? Is it really possible for us to be truly equal?
'All my life, I've been taught that females are precious and that even dying for them is only natural. But this female just said we are all equal.'
Shaken to the core, he looked deeply at Veronica, then rose to his feet, and walked away without another word.
The higher-ups of Illusia realized their plan hadn't worked, so they brought Veronica to their palace under the pretense of thanking her and forbade her from leaving without their permission.
Meanwhile, Joshua met with Matthew. The two sat across from each other at a solid wood table, the air filled with the faint scent of coffee.
Joshua looked grim and got straight to the point. "Matthew, Veronica is now trapped in Illusia. Our two families need to work together to keep her safe."
Matthew frowned and responded in a deep voice, "What a coincidence. I was thinking the same thing. Illusia may hold more power than we do as a state, but that doesn't mean our families are completely outmatched if we join forces."
He paused and then continued, "Moreover, Veronica means a lot to both our families. There's no way my family and I will sit on our hands while she remains in Illusia."
Joshua gave a small nod, showing his agreement.
