While the guard was still standing there at the window, Caspian heard Vincent from outside, “Caspian, is everything alright? What happened? Why have we stopped here?”
Caspian waited until Vincent came into the view and then pointed his brows at Anastasia. “She isn’t feeling well. So, we will be spending a night here.”
Vincent instantly furrowed his brows and wrinkled his nose in disapproval. “Is it right to stay here in Xanmar? They might already be after us. What if they find us and attack us in the middle of the night?”
Caspian took a deep breath and said exasperatedly, “I know. I have also taken that into consideration. That fool might have given orders to his wer– soldiers to follow us and capture us. But…” He turned to look at his shivering wife and said, “Just look at her! Do you think she can travel the whole night?”
Vincent turned to look at the Queen. She did look pale and was shivering badly even when Tilla was tightly hugging her. His eyes met with Tilla’s.
