章節 111: Lurking

It hadn't been easy for Jacob Fowler to sneak into Moonstone Castle undetected. The guards and servants were everywhere, in preparation for the royal wedding. He'd left the courtyard gate open in the guest quarters he'd stayed in, giving him easy means of entrance. The getting around part had been harder. He'd needed to duck into the servant's quarters once, scaring one of the young female servants.

Jacob had played stupid. Saying he'd gotten 'turned around' while coming back from his guest quarters. The young lass was smitten within moments due to his good looks and flirtatious manner. She'd happily reopened the door and sent him on his way. Paying no mind to the direction in which he was heading.
