Chapitre 27: The Dark Room

Lorelai was completely flustered. She was indeed enjoying the piece of dried bread with raisins so much, that she even closed her eyes and spread her lips into a big smile; just like a child savoring a tasty treat. 

She could not understand why Rhaegar said that his bread did not taste good. Inside her mouth, it tasted like heaven. 

Of course, she had been starving for so long that anything might have tasted amazing, but still, the snack offered by the lycan king was beyond anything she had ever tasted. 

'Marianna used to sneak this bread for me when I was still a child and Althea locked me up in my bedroom for failing my etiquette lessons. Back then, I was also not allowed to eat, but she risked her job in the palace to get me this snack in secret. She used to make it herself and fed it to me along with hot tea to soothe my stomachache.'
