Abigail pov
My eyes gleamed when I saw him in a vulnerable position. Following William today was the best decision of my life. When he suddenly told me that he had to leave for urgent work, while I was kissing her, it made me suspicious. So, when he asked his knights to follow him, they left the royal palace. I decided to follow them.
I was worried that something had happened. The image of the burning palace hit me and my hands turned sweaty. I did not want to reveal my presence, so I followed him stealthily.
They walked towards the estate of archduke Gerard. Who would have thought that would attack him on his own estate. The way he was running to save his life, gave me immense peace. I had always heard that revenge did not give peace, how wrong they were! I felt relieved seeing the fear of death in his eyes.
