Chapter 147: Meet Up In The Library

Lotus lowered her cloak to cover her face as they rode out through the back gate. Razial informed the guards he was seeing someone out and the guards winked at him, thinking he had sneaked in a hooker earlier. 

Lotus had to roll her eyes under the hood. 

Once they were outside and a safe distance from the palace, Lotus threw her hood back and glared in his direction. 

"Really? Razial, you had no other excuse?" 

Razial simply shrugged his wide shoulders as he held the reins with his right hand and controlled his steed. 

"Men are simple creatures, Princess Lotus. All of them have one basic need, and they always back their fellows in its fulfilment."

Lotus shook her head slightly. Her light hair were highlighted under the moonlight, its silvery glow ade each strand stand out and Razial had to nip the urge to stare.
