The Field Marshal, a battle nut, knew so much about what Susan was going through because she had seen an important person in her life go through the same thing. That person was none other than her sister-in-law, Colleen, the Southern Queen.

As one of the highly reputed and respected ladies in the Royal & High Society and as the Southern Queen's close confidant, nobody except the Field Marshal truly knew what Colleen went through after marrying the former's brother. Not even the Southern Ruler had a complete grasp of the constant criticism and struggles Colleen had to face as the Southern Queen. If he knew then not even Colleen's persuasion could have stopped him from waging war against the other regions. It was not news that the rich and powerful were snobbish, judgemental, and exclusionists. In Colleen's case, with a group of Southern Ruler's female admires flaming the fire with their untrue but saucy gossip about her, it had reached a whole new level it wouldn't be wrong to call it extreme. Despite such extreme hate directed toward her, Colleen continued to bear it all and persist. In the end, she not only proved herself to them but earned their acceptance for sake of her husband, her in-laws, and the citizens she represented which in turn helped her solidify the trust and respect that. every Southerner had shown her.

Colleen was a fighter but it was not easy for her either. Being her sister-in-law's close confidant the Field Marshal understood the toll all this took on Colleen. Therefore, the Field Marshal knew that what hurt Colleen most wasn't the taunts and criticism of the strangers who overestimated their significance in her life but the pain of her loved ones whose hearts ached every time they saw her being treated as such.

Colleen did not let it stop her from attending social gatherings and public events rather she used it as a motivator to achieve the goal she set out to attain. The Field Marshal wanted Susan to do the same because she knew only by overcoming her demons would Susan would be truly worthy to stand besides Wyatt with her head held up high without any hesitation or fear.

Listening to the Field Marshal's explanation Wyatt fell in a deep thought feeling she was right. Considering Susan's personality, she would rather sacrifice herself than see any harm befall him. The more Wyatt thought the more he realized that even if he succeeded in assuring and persuading Susan with his glib tongue today he wasn't sure he could do the same in the future.

To make sure he would not be in this situation again, Wyatt understood that there was nothing he could do. The only person who could do anything here was Susan, herself. If she were to deal with her demons once and for all like the Field Marshal said then he would never be in this situation ever again.

However,

"Field Marshal, you are right. But I am afraid. I am afraid that Susan might fall prey to the Southern Princess's scheme or worse she would willingly distance herself from me overwhelmed by the pressure of a relationship with me, the Southern Hope.

Field Marshal, I don't want to lose her too. I want her in my life. After all, it was when she appeared in my life that I learned to trust again. I don't think I can continue without her by my side. I really do not think I can survive losing her."

Fearing he might lose Susan too, feeling vulnerable, Wyatt expressed his genuine thoughts to the Field Marshal. He hasn't shown his vulnerable side to anyone. However, today he showed it to the Field Marshal, Cortney, and Bloodette. Showing that he trust them enough to be vulnerable in their presence.

Wyatt recalled the very first day he met Susan in Guild Association Mall and how she trusted someone she just met her fate ingredient and all her life savings. This act might not have been a big beal for others, even Susan herself, but for Wyatt, it meant the world.

Ile felt like there weren't words to explain how much it meant for him for her to trust him. That day when Susan took a chance on him, Wyatt, decided to give trust a second chance. This was difficult for him, especially considering the people he sacrificed his life to protect labeled him as a vigilant and a mass murderer before stabbing him in the back.

The Field Marshal was taken aback seeing Wyatt willing to show his weak side to her. At that moment a motherly love overcame her heart wanting to pull her liege into a bear hug and assure him that everything was going to be okay, she would not let anyone harm him, and she would protect him with her life. However, she could not think of words to assure him in the present situation as this was a matter of love. No one had command over how Susan felt and what she chose except Susan. Just when the Field Marshal was feeling helpless, Cortney who had been silent so far hearing her friend's fears spoke up, "Wyatt, I have no idea what it means to love or lose in love but I am willing to go to any lengths to help my friend win in his love. If nothing works I will kidnap Susan and force her to love you using my origin card!"

"Right, I know a few blood rules that can help too, Bloodette followed suit despite having no clue what love was. Humans were already too complicated for her let alone their emotions.

"Thank you, guys. But that won't be necessary as I haven't lost until I give up on my love," Wyatt looked at Cortney and Bloodette gratefully.

Seeing Cortney willing to go to any lengths for her friend helped him realize he too should not be afraid and do everything in his power to win his love as everything was fair in love and war. What mattered was, how far he was willing to go for love?"

After a while, seeing Wyatt was lost in his thoughts for long, the Field Marshal reminded him, "Now that you know everything my niece had planned. What do we do next?"
