Chapter 28 1288 Vouchers I look at Marianne behind the counter who glances at the window. The king keeps showing up here; she may just firefor the annoyance. Yet she only has a silly smile on her face when she looks at Max then out the windows.

A dark SUV pulls up to the curb in front of the cafe, the doors of SUVS open with urgency, as guards storm out of cars drawing my attention. One grips the door handle, it rattles as it swings open and the bells above the door ring loudly. As I turn around from delivering another plate of food, I catch sight of King Soren walking into the café accompanied by several guards.

The tall, imposing figure of King Soren enters the café, his broad shoulders fill the space as he strides confidently towards the counter. He is flanked by several guards, their serious expressions and bulging muscles adding to the intimidating presence of the king. Before he reaches the counter he spots Max.

"There you are," he growls and the room falls silent. His face immediately softens as if relieved that Max is okay. At this point, it's obvious he knows where Max escapes to daily, and his frustration is evident. His deep black hair is tousled as if he had run his fingers through it all morning, and blue eyes pinwhere I stand. Tall with broad shoulders and a strong build, the king's muscles bulge under his form-fitting suit.

Soren sighs, running a hand through his hair. "Seems like it. Would you..." he hesitates, "would you consider being Max's nanny?" Damian, his guard, clears his throat nervously behind him, his hard-set gaze directed at me. Damian stands just a few inches shorter than the king, his broad shoulders and tense posture showing his strength and readiness to protect. His closely cropped hair is a deep brown, and his sharp features are set in a serious expression. His dark eyes bore into me, unflinching and intense makingwant to shrink away from him.

"Sir, we hardly know the girl," he mutters.

The tension in the air is palpable as the king and his guard Damian stand before me. I can feel their intense gazes on me, and I shift uncomfortably under their scrutiny.

"Have you got a better idea?" King Soren snaps at Damian, his voice laced with frustration. "And exactly how safe is my son when he not only escapes the nanny, but all my guards?" Damian nods once, his face stoic and unreadable. The king turns his piercing gaze back to me, and I can't help but feel small under his intense stare.

"Well?" he prompts, crossing his arms over his broad chest.
