Charlotte heard the gentle, deep voice of Édouard and pried open her eyes. She promptly lifted her head and rubbed her eyes.
"We have arrived," Édouard said and got out of the carriage whose door was already opened. Charlotte also came out of the carriage and placed her hand above his, who helped her get down.
He saw the saliva to the right of her lips and wiped it using his thumb. Charlotte got conscious thinking how the way she slept.
He pulled his hand back and lowered it. The sky had turned red as the sun settled down. Everything was so quiet and peaceful. She found out it was a place covered in forests and huge mountain cliffs.
Her eyes fell on the small huts and the smoke coming out of their chimneys.
Wait! Did Édouard not tell her that it was a secret place? He was such a big liar!
She found Rainard and Édouard speaking in low voices, which she was unable to hear.
