All Chapters of How to Make the Ice Prince Fall: Chapter 191 - Chapter 200

On the next crossroad, the party split. The carriage with the King, his mistress, and son as well as their soldiers and servants turned to the left. Lady Orchid's words of goodbye were heartwarming, and Aston waved until they were out of sight. Only then did Nathaniel and Katherine with their entourage of about a dozen - mostly Jack's guards' team - take the right road in the direction of the border.Compared to their travel to the Capital some weeks ago, the time they would spend to reach their destination would be shortened. On the one hand, this was because they were all on horses now and could take the narrower roads that were impossible for carriages, on the other, there was no patient to take care of. Six days later, Katherine was already used to the harsher living conditions and the fast riding pace all day. She even found one thing she secretly enjoyed very much. It was kind of an unspoken agreement between her and Nathaniel. Since in the evenings she was always very ex

Twenty minutes later, Katherine sat by the roadside dejectedly. Despite the assurance that she was needed for patch up later, she felt useless, and that was not only because she was worse at fighting compared to everyone else. No, what worried her most, was her reaction to the corpses. Even though she'd never seen the aftermath of a battle, she'd seen plenty of wounds, illnesses, and heavy burns. Damn, she'd even seen her parents die with the same eyes that were now pressed shut in anxiety confronted with a few unknown bodies! From her self-reflection, her reaction shouldn't have been this exaggerated. But what came up in her mind again and again were not the corpses actually, but the bloody muzzles of wolfs, and the sight of her own disfigured body. Once, she'd been way worse off than these soldiers. And though she wanted to suppress it, the memory of those few minutes before unconsciousness engulfed her, terrified her ever since. After a while, Dorian lit up a lamp

Looking at her maid's retreating figure, Katherine smiled as she felt an arm coil around her waist and pulling her backwards against Nathaniel's hard body. "That could have been your last chance", he murmured, and lightly brushed his lips against her pulse only to feel it speed up as her skin turned warmer. With a dazzling smile, Katherine turned around. "There is only one chance I want." "Then, Ladies first", Nathaniel returned with a rather serious gaze and held the tent flap open. He was at the end of his line. Either he would get her today or go crazy with longing. And with the way Katherine brushed him by when she crouched down, she was more than happy to be eaten thoroughly. As soon as the flap of the tent closed, the two bodies inside latched onto each other. Nathaniel was on top, pressing his wife into the pillows. His self-control only sufficed for one small peck, then he devoured her mouth hungrily. His hands reached under her neck to unravel the l

Despite all the precaution, Nathaniel and his company never reached the General. When the portcullis of the wall fell shut behind the group of four and their escorts, Nathaniel's suspicion spiked. His eyes grew frighteningly cold and calculating as he inspected the defensive measures of the stone corridor they'd entered.Towards the sky, it was unsealed, more like a street passage with buildings to the sides. Yet, both ends were blocked with portcullises and only one door lead away from it. A door, which he suspected could be barred with iron locks from the other side. There was not one other soldier in sight, not even archers up on the walls to the sides of the stone corridor.Nathaniel's eyes met Sam's shortly. At the same time, all riders halted their horses and began to dismount. Since they were heavily armored, the escorts took a longer time than their four guests."Wait here. The General will come to meet you soon", Marcus Iceflower said, and, without another gl

It rained for the whole night and half of the following day. In the end, even the ground beneath the big tree's branches grew wet. Breakfast was a leaf of bread each. Around midday, when the sun poked through the clouds and made the water on the plants sparkle like diamonds, some warmth finally returned to the traveling group. That was also the moment Lady Brandon opened her mouth for the first time. "Where exactly are we going, actually?" Seeing that Nathaniel was about to set out again, she felt like she had to ask now. While resting, her gaze had wandered to the path they were coming from once in a while as if expecting something. Yet, nobody had come after them. Since she herself had noticed the lack of manpower, she wondered if they had not even enough to follow after them or expected them to find their deaths by themselves. Curious herself, Katherine gazed at her husband. Knowing that he had planned to stay on the border for a while after convincing the Gen
