Hans looked over his shoulder. He could hear nothing, but that did not mean he was alone. Certain people could hide in the trees in the forest. Assassins could hide their presence. Or worse, he could be watched by those cursed elves that haunted his territory. He would never understand why the kingdom was trying to integrate them into society.
For weeks, he had the sense that someone was watching him. Even in the deepest regions of his newly built villa. The rooms that no one should know about. He couldn't even enjoy treating his newest acquisitions to stress relief in peace. Let alone attempt to create an heir with that useless wife of his.
The stupid healer he had hired to fix his useless wife only made him angrier.
"Children come in their own time. I do not see anything physically wrong with your wife. Perhaps I should examine you as well?"
The audacity.
