Bab 183: Sneaking around (2)

Hazel laid in bed, confused by Tobias not showing up by now. The maids had long gotten her changed for bed and now she was all alone. She had told him not to show up, but Hazel was not expecting Tobias to listen to her. 

Hazel looked at the balcony which would be the only way for him to get inside of her bedroom. There were guards outside her door and unless Tobias was close to them, his visit here would not remain a secret. 

Hazel closed her eyes, trying to go to sleep since Tobias was not going to be visiting her. Just when she was ready to fall asleep, Hazel heard a faint noise in the quiet room.

She opened her eyes and sat up to see if Tobias was there. His head suddenly poked above the balcony rail and then he dropped inside to lay on the floor, panting as he caught his breath.
