“Somewhere.” He responded while folding his arms. It left Anna a bit surprised as her eyes dilated a little cause she thought she’d be trapped in here like a slave forever.

Moreover, he didn’t even order her to serve him tea, or any of those maiden jobs in particular which was rather odd.

He spoke of punishment earlier, does he have any intention of punishing her??

She hoped not.

“Where then?”

“Curious?” His glimmering eyes slightly shifted towards the figure beside him, knowing she definitely wasn’t expecting to find herself stepping out of his den so out of the blue like this.

Annalise only nodded as she wished to see the outside world and its beautiful nature again, even if it meant with him by her side all through.

“Then keep guessing baby girl.” He retorted.

.....

Anna frowned deeply at his response and to be a lot more frank, she didn’t really like it when he called her that, nor did she fancy the idea of helping him out. It always tore at her heart that it’d made her feel she was betraying her people who never even trusted her due to her cursed mark, but she had two reasons for agreeing to do this.

One of the reasons was she is more than curious to figure out what he wanted to know and why he wanted to know the insights in Euphrasia.

Staying here would equally give her a chance to know his next plan on Euphrasia and if she gets the chance, she might be able to warn Calista or even the physician with the slightest escape she can make.

The second one was, there was a better chance that he could get rid of her mark, he had promised to get rid of it and since he wanted to really know about the insights, there was a higher chance of him fulfilling that promise to her.

“Ro_ I mean.... young master.” She nervously corrected herself before looking up to meet his stare with an inquiring gaze.

“How do you plan on using me to gain insights?” She asked and an evil smile delicately formed on his lips in response. Anna didn’t feel quite appeased with that smile on his face and he suddenly let out his hand for her.

“Come, let’s go.”

Annalise stared at his beautiful long fingers which were stretched out for her to hold and she bit the skin inside her cheek, she didn’t want to hold it.

“Go where?” She asked instead and the glacier tilted his head to the side, staring at her with a look that said she just ignored his proffered hand.

Hesitantly, Anna finally placed her dainty hands on his in an attempt to avoid getting on his nerves. There were a few cuts to her fingers and palm which he took notice of.

“You did this?” Questioned Roshan while Anna’s gaze fell on her bruised hands, remembering how she had used her own nails to hurt herself.

“It’s one of my many habits, it keeps me calm.” She responded with a smile and that only made him knit his brow in skepticism.

One way or another, he was going to figure out the mind of this woman standing before him.

Tauntingly, his gaze raked her up once again and he added, “nice dress, really brought out the shape of your....”

Anna’s face became instantly red again when his gaze landed on her bosoms and she felt like killing him this time around.

“You...!!..”

A powerful light immediately encompassed the both of them before she got a chance to complain and within the blink of an eye, they were out of sight.

“And what brings you to the Viscarrian palace, dear uncle?” Azazel questioned as he served his uncle a glass of wine and they took a seat on one of the tables in a private quarters known as the solar room.

A chess board was placed on the table, indicating they were actually battling over a game of chess before starting up a discussion.

“From your ugly expression, did you perhaps run into Roshan?” Azazel calmly inquired with a hint of mockery and that only made his uncle’s eyes spark in response.

“That impudent rascal hasn’t changed one bit, he’s as he always was.”

“What made you think he’d change in the first place?” Azazel secretly rolled his eyes before moving a white pawn to the right on his chessboard.

“The girl with him.....”

“A piece of advice dear uncle.” Azazel smoothly cut him off, “..if you really want peace, I’d advise you to kindly stay away from her.”

“Because you’re a walking encyclopedia doesn’t give you the right to advise me.” His uncle sharply retorted before making his own moves on the chessboard.

“She has a special soul, I sensed it and her blood is rather tempting.” Uncle Evan amusingly spoke, recalling the sweet scent of her blood earlier and how he planned on sucking her dry. Had Roshan not interrupted, he would have had her to himself.

“Are you that desperate to have your head nailed to a platter and hung in Roshan’s room as decoration?”

“Come of that, I heard he just recently came back, so he must be terribly weak, or am I wrong?”

“You speak like you can actually face him even in his weakest moment, I’m impressed.” Azazel ironically spoke before moving his own piece on the board. His expression suddenly looked quizzical after moving a piece.

“I feel there’s more to that sealing chamber that meets the eye and Roshan hasn’t told anyone how he succeeded in getting out of there.” Azazel cryptically added, “he still plans on taking his revenge but after witnessing what he did yesterday, I’m starting to wonder, is he having a war with the Euphrasia’s or the people of Euphrasia itself?”

“I’d rather have him dead.”

“Who knew the great count could actually carry such vile thoughts.” A charming feminine voice suddenly spoke and when they turned their heads towards the direction the voice came from, a young beautiful lady stood at the threshold, wearing a sweet smile on her face.

“Forgive me if I interrupted your ‘mini conversation’ but Uncle, cousin, we’re back from hunting.”
