[Yue's POV]
It happened all so quickly.
One minute, I was investigating how to improve my summoning abilities, and the next… A strange man barged into my chambers in the middle of the night. The young man who was littered with scars stood before me with his blade pointed at my neck.
Black hair and golden eyes… Those were the traits of the Solaris House. As far as I can recall, the Elune House and Solaris House didn't have any quarrels… so why was he here threatening my life?
"I came to kill you, but it seems that you're better alive than dead."
The young man hesitated. I would later find out that it was this hesitation that spared my life, but for now, I was terrified. I tried to open my mouth to bargain, but he didn't give me the chance.
"Come with me."
And for the first time in my life…
I eloped.
