What was he doing outside? Was he waiting for her?
No. That was not possible.
He did not know that she was coming out this way. He could not have guessed what she was thinking. And he would not know her secret passages.
"Your Highness, are we going somewhere?" He stated without even looking at her. It was as if he was already expecting her.
Damn it! How did he discover her plan to escape?
She came home with her family from the party. But she could not stay confined in her room. Not after the day she had.
She knew she needed some time to cool off and unwind. But she did not need her entire entourage to go along with her. She wanted to be alone.
"That is none of your business." She carelessly answered as she walked straight ahead, passing him without giving him another glance.
