Princess Nalan opened her eyes, stared blankly for a second, and then froze. She knit her brows and promptly sat up, holding the cloak to her chest. Her eyes scanned the field of flowers before her, she was alone.
He was gone...leaving only a cloak behind.
She glanced about and then instantly relaxed when she saw his horse still tied up next to hers. Of course, he would never leave her...not after all this. She smiled and let out a happy sigh of relief and was about to lay back down to relax when she realized that the sun was setting.
She was late, very late. She needed to get back to the palace, no, the Zou representatives' manor first and then the palace.
Princess Nalan immediately jumped to her feet, grabbed her clothes, rushed behind the bushes to quickly get dressed as she called out, "Princ - Jun Shan! Where are you? We have to leave!... Jun Shan! Ju -"
"Relax, there's no rush..." Prince Yi finally responded.
