Chapter 22: Private Talk

Rosalie followed Damien into his manor and as soon as the heavy ornamented wooden doors opened before her, inviting her in, she could not help but gasp in awe one more time.

As she was escorted through the entrance of the Duke's manor, she found herself immersed in an opulent world of luxury and elegance. The interior exuded grandeur with its intricate marble flooring and gilded accents. Despite its magnificence, there was an unexpected sense of coziness, as plush carpets and velvet drapes softened the space. Warm hues bathed the well-lit rooms, casting a soft glow on the meticulously arranged antique furniture and ornate tapestries.

The long corridor on the second floor beckoned with the promise of hidden treasures and secret chambers. It was a place where extravagance and comfort intertwined, inviting Rosalie to explore its alluring mysteries.

'I never expected it to look so warm and cozy on the inside... Does Damien really care about this place so much?'
