Bab 320: Sleepy

''So, even if we were caught, we can speak what we are told to. We can say that the heir apparent was showing his concern for his bride. Lady Esme is magnanimous and once she pardons us, the King won't lay a hand on us.'' 

Rory shook her head, ''I do not want us to be involved in this, Rose.'' 

Rose sighed, ''I am done with the life of servitude, I want to change my fate. We are twins, connected by hearts. I can feel that you are enticed too.'' 

''But…'' Before Rory could continue speaking, she was surrounded by a group of men. 

Rose's eyes widened, ''Who are you? Why are you taking my sister?" her voice rose slightly when she watched them dragging Rory away. 

''She would be released once the work is done,'' one of the men eyed the sachet in her hand.
