Annalise pressed her ear against the carriage window to hear what was going on outside, however, the only thing she found was the ire silence.
"My Lord..." She tried to call Lord Damien but got no response. Feeling her heart sinking lower with every passing second of silence, she tried to open the window but it seemed like Damien had locked it with a spell.

"What did he mean by this? Is this a trick to abandon me here all alone?" A heavy feeling settled in her heart as soon as the second thought made its way out of her mouth.
