Chapter 731: The Ten Thousand Reinforcements

Lady Felicia was finished packing soon and before the morning sun could reveal her whereabouts, she and her daughter had already escaped the city via a secret passage, riding on a horse rapidly that was headed towards Alexander's camp.

The woman was surprisingly without even a single escort, being accompanied only by two of her handmaidens who rode on two separate horses, them in charge of their mistress's belongings.

Lapitus of course had insisted on giving his wife a few guards, but Lady Felicia vehemently declined them all, saying that the fewer people there were, the better.

And though in reality this was a reason, the much bigger reason was that having them would make her planned tryst with Alexander a lot harder.

Thus Lady Felicia made the short journey with just her trusted two maids, and once out of the city, it took her only a few minutes to reach the camp, her thick dark cloak fluttering in the wind as her mare galloped across the open field.
