Chapitre 509: The forbidden mansion

When Aries opened her eyes, it was almost eventide, and her position was already facing the open balcony. Her first instinct was to check Abel, and to her surprise, the side of the bed where he slept was empty.

"Abel?" she called, propping her elbow against the mattress as she rose from the bed. Aries looked around the grandiose emperor's chambers and frowned. 

"Where did he go?" her brows creased, letting out a shallow breath. She flung her legs out of the bed, assuming Abel went somewhere for some important matter. 

Aries strutted towards the balcony that was slightly opened. The second she stepped her foot outside, the soft breeze kissed her cheeks, bringing a subtle smile to her face. Her eyes fell on the railing and, for some odd reason, she pictured Abel sitting on the railing all alone.
