"DARLING, are you alright?"
"I'm alright, darling," Rufus assured his wife while wiping the blood off of his face using a handkerchief. He just got off the carriage when he realized that there was bloodstain left on his face. He was in a hurry when he left the interrogation room to come home to his family. "This isn't my blood."
Amber looked relieved to hear that, then she looked at the servants lined behind her before she turned to him again. "Let's go to our room. You need to change your clothes first. You don't want Hanna to see you in that state, do you?"
His uniform was black so the bloodstain wasn't that visible. But he smelled of blood. Hanna had sharp senses so his daughter would definitely notice.
"You're right, darling," he said, then he took off his black gloves before he offered his hand to his wife. "Let's go to our room."
Hi! William will be in the next chapter. And I know that 'moonshine' is a type of (illegal) whiskey and could also mean a 'foolish idea,' but let's forget about those definitions here. Hehe!
PS: Please consider unlocking the chapters with coins if you can. :( Help me get by through writing. Hehe! POWER STONES, comments, and reviews are ALWAYS appreciated.
