After leaving the courtyard, Vincent helped Delaney to their room where she laid down to rest. While she did he called for the servants to prepare their things to go back to the city house. Even though Ian was already asleep by the time the Duke went to check on him, Vincent had his things packed up as well. He wouldn't leave the castle without their friend.
By the time Delaney and Ian were both awake again everything was ready to go and the grand Adair carriage was waiting outside for them. Vincent sent word to Sophia and Daniel that they were leaving and the King came down to say goodbye to them. He looked upset and uneasy but tried to force a smile to his lips when he saw them.
