Bab 213: Return

[Long chapter, almost 2-in-1]

.

Dorian's first date with Helena was a glorious success.

"Where are we going?" Dorian had made Helena don a blindfold as he walked her away from the inn, guiding her.

"Just follow me, Smalls." Dorian grinned shamelessly as he led her away from the inn to a fancy horse-drawn carriage, the type wealthy merchants or nobles used for transportation in-city. It was large, with plush cushions and seating on the inside, painted black on the oustide. This particular one was drawn by one Sky Class White Fur Horse.

He gave a silent nod to the driver he'd hired as he scooped Helena up and jumped inside in one smooth motion.

"Eep!" Helena couldn't resist any longer as she tore the blindfold off, and quickly looked around.

"Hey! That was like 4 seconds!" Dorian's protests went ignored as she giggled.

"Is this a... horse and carriage?" She stared at him, curious.

Dorian held a hand up to her lips, silencing her as he gave her a beady-eyed stare.
