Capítulo 64: Beating heart- Part 1

Her hands turned clammy at the sight of Calhoun getting inside the entrance of the castle, and her head snapped around to look at James, who looked oblivious that danger was approaching both of them. 

"What happened?" asked James with a slightly confused look on his face as to why she looked like she saw a ghost now. Since months, James had been trying to court the young maiden, and it was only now that they were alone. They had almost had a moment together, but Madeline had moved away from him to see what was outside the window.

James had fallen for Madeline the first time when they had crashed against each other as she was in a hurry, carrying vegetables in her arms. She had apologized profusely before leaving. 

"You need to leave now, James," Madeline informed him to have him look at her with a frown. 

"Why? I am not leaving this castle without you," he informed her and Madeline looked at him alarmed.
