Capítulo 83: Teasing

Sophie was stunned at this sudden question. She was not sure how to answer him. Why did he sound... jealous?

"I was thinking of other things, my lord," Sophie finally replied as calmly as possible. She was on a stranger's turf and she didn't even know where she was right now. She only knew that she was in a castle, but which castle? Where was this place located?

If she needed to run away, in case the man started showing his bad side, then Sophie must know where she was in the first place.  "I am sorry if you feel offended. I do not find you uninteresting, my lord. On the contrary, I am very curious. You seemed to be shrouded in mystery."

Sophie swallowed and continued her explanation. "However, I try not to ask too many questions and keep my curiosity to myself. That's why I kept my mind busy, thinking about other things... So, I can distract my mind from you."
