Sorry. Mind we move around the bailey or vineyard for some minutes?"
She shook her head, "I'm not sure. It's quite lonely and dark outside."
"You won't be alone."
"It's cold also."
"I shall send my valet to get you a coat."
"It's really not necessary, Your royal highness."
"It is unnecessary if you deem it fit. I just think that there are eyes on the walls which we need to get rid of. I told you it's a secret. The secret is meant to stay behind close ears."
"If you insist, your highness. But first, I shall need to coat. I might be feverish later on without one."
He nodded and stood up to check for one of his valets. He had sent them away when he saw the mistress alone beforehand. He felt guilty for some moment but he waved the guilty off. He shall not back out of his plans just because the woman was innocent or seemed to be easygoing.
He continued to search for any of his valets until his eyes set themselves upon Ezekiel.
