Inside the dimly lit tent, the atmosphere was tense as Princess Amara and Leela continued to question Das about his time on Skull Island. With each passing moment, Das felt the pressure building, and his patience was wearing thin. He had agreed to help Amara and her family, but he never signed up to have his personal life scrutinised.
Finally, unable to contain his frustration any longer, Das stood up from his seat and locked eyes with Amara. His voice was firm, laced with irritation. "Princess, before I pledged my loyalty to you, we had an agreement," he said pointedly. "You promised not to pry into my personal life, and now you're questioning me like I'm a war criminal. Is this the worth of your promise?"
"You're right, and I didn't mean to breach our agreement. It's just that Viper's disappearance has put us all on edge, and I'm desperate for answers."
Leela, who had been silent until now, interjected with a mix of concern and skepticism. "But what if you do know something about Viper? What if you're hiding information that could help us find her?"
Das sighed, feeling the weight of the situation. "I've already told you; I know nothing about Viper," he said firmly. "I have my own challenges to deal with, and I'm not involved in whatever is happening with her. If you want my help, I'm more than willing to assist, but I won't be treated like a suspect in your investigation."
As the tense silence filled the dimly lit tent, Princess Amara found herself at a loss for words. Das's direct question about her promise left her feeling unsettled, and she couldn't help but wonder if there was more to him than met the eye. His composure and confidence, even under pressure, only added to her suspicions.
But despite her growing doubts, one thing was clear to Amara – pushing Das any further on the matter of Viper would yield no results. He had remained steadfast in his denial, and no amount of questioning seemed to sway him. With a heavy sigh, she turned her attention to Leela, who still stood there with a dagger in hand, her anger not fully subsided.
"Leela, please calm down," Amara said, her tone firm but soothing. "He has made it clear that he knows nothing about Viper's disappearance."
Leela's eyes narrowed, but she eventually nodded, reluctantly sheathing her dagger. She had always been fiercely protective of her sister, and the possibility of Viper being in danger had her on edge.
After finishing the soothing words, Princess Amara ordered Leela to escort Das to his home.
Princess Amara watched as Leela escorted Das toward the exit of the camp. Before they left, she felt compelled to express her appreciation to him for the way he had taken control of the city in such a short span of time.
"Das, I must admit, your abilities and influence are impressive," she said with a hint of admiration in her voice. "You have shown great skill in managing this city and its people."
However, Das could see through the flattery in her words. He knew that her praise was merely a way to keep him on their side, to ensure that he would be a valuable asset in the potential civil war between the Aries and Farus families. Amara's sweet words may have been well-intended, but he was not one to be swayed easily.
"Thank you for your kind words, Princess," Das replied, his tone remaining polite but distant. "But as I mentioned before, I prefer if your family stays away from my personal life," Das added in a rough tone.
Amara nodded, understanding that Das was firm in his stance. She respected his boundaries, knowing that pushing him further would only strain their already delicate relationship. "Very well," she said, accepting his decision gracefully. "Just know that we won't treat you badly if you are loyal."
"That depends on you."
With that, Das bid his farewell and turned to leave, accompanied by Leela. As they walked away from the camp, Das couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. He was glad to be out of the tense atmosphere of the tent. Leela escorted him to the peripheries of the campsite.
"You can go from here onwards." Leela said with an arrogant smirk and walked back without caring about his struggle in reaching his palace in the city centre.
Before leaving, Das activated his special vision and stared at her bumping naked ass which is dangling left and right. Leela immediately changed direction and increased her walking speed to avoid his piercing gaze.
As Das walked away from the army camp, he couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. He knew he had managed to escape the questioning and prying eyes, but he also realised that things were getting more complicated with each passing day.
As he continued down the dimly lit path, his mind was occupied with thoughts about the hidden agendas of the powerful families. He knew he needed to be cautious and stay one step ahead of them all.
His special vision gave him an advantage, allowing him to see what others couldn't.
The night air was cool, and the sound of waves crashing against the nearby shore brought a sense of calmness to his troubled mind.
As he walked, he couldn't help but think about Princess Amara and her promises. He knew he couldn't fully trust her, despite her seemingly genuine appreciation for his control of the city. Her interest in him went beyond what she let on, and he had to be cautious not to reveal too much about his own.
As Das neared the main road, he saw a car parked at a distance. Using his special vision, he confirmed his suspicion – it is Red Rose. A wide grin spread across his face after seeing her.
With a sense of warmth and excitement, Das quickened his pace to reach the car. As he approached, Red Rose noticed him and switched on the car's headlights, as she rolled down the window.
Das sat beside her and kissed her hand affectionately. They did not speak a single word with each other. Red Rose started the car and began driving it towards the city centre.
