บท 42: Chapter 42 You Big Badass

Palace

As Klaus carried Emily through the corridors of the palace, the passing servants bowed their heads and drew back, waiting for Klaus's back to disappear at the end of the corridor before the servants dared to whisper.

It was the first time they had ever seen a servant, who had been at court for many years, dare to curse their former prince in such a manner, and to the astonishment of the servants, Klaus not only did not take offense, but allowed the woman to beat and curse him.

It was a far cry from the cold, hard Klaus they had known. There was no need to wait for the next day; the news had already reached the court.

Klaus pushed the door open with one hand, and with the other clasped Emily's waist, so that he did not allow her body to slip even as she moved over his shoulder.
