King Ephraim's Visitation.
Carlotta could feel her heart in her throat as soon as the words escaped his lips.
Her heart stopped beating instantly, confusion and anxiety taking over. What did...
What did he just say?
"M… My Lord?" She stuttered, her eyes glued to his face.
"I don't… I don't think I understand".
Lorenzo said nothing, but only picked up some vegetables with his spoon.
Carlotta was gobsmacked. Was this guy for real?
Slowly, she turned and glanced at the door, a crazy idea popping in. Goodness! There was no way she could run away. His guards by the door would definitely seize her as soon as she steps a foot.
"You should start eating, Princess" his cold voice suddenly broke into her thoughts, snapping her out and she looked up at him.

"My… My Lord": she called as she took a step closer and Lorenzo stopped walking to look at her. For a few seconds, she was out of words as those pretty eyes stared at hers.

She wouldn't let anyone stop her for any reason."But, what if Lord Lorenzo eventually gets to know we violated his orders by showing up at the fight?" Ginevra asked as she helped Carlotta brush her hair in front of the mirror."Oh! Stop thinking negatively, Ginevra. He's never going to find out, Okay? And even if he does, I'll make sure you don't get punished. Alright?""Fine" Ginevra rolled her eyes."But… do you realize we haven't even had breakfast?""There's no time, Ginevra.

Ginevra asked as they walked outside."Of course not, I don't even know how to use a horse. Besides, using a horse right now would create too much suspicions from the guards and I don't want that.

Lorenzo's about having a fight!!Her eyes rotated all around Ginevra."Is she… is she still alive?" She asked in deep breaths."Yes. The poison isn't meant to kill. It's only meant to cause dizziness and weakness. She's still fine" the woman replied and Carlotta got off her knees immediately, turning to the rider."Please, I beg you with everything you believe in. Take me to the venue of the fight. Please!"

Callum suddenly looked at her and asked."That isn't important for now, Callum. It doesn't matter if we live under the sea or anything.
