The next day, Valerian made me hyperventilate as soon as he showed up at the door, just as I was about to plan to abscond from him.
"How did you know that I am in this room?" I asked, frowning. I couldn't stop my heart from beating so fast since I had been thinking about him for the whole night while crying silently.
"Asking your innkeeper is a great help." He wriggled his eyebrows.
I almost slapped myself for the obvious question I asked him. "Of course, the innkeeper..." I rolled my eyes while he was following me when we were outside my inn.
"Let's grab some breakfast," he said.
I glanced at him. I wanted to refuse him, but I felt he would pester me until I agreed. "Fine. Lead the way." This was really my karma that my attitude was like Valerian's before.
He had a sheepish smile. "That is good to hear then. Please follow me, my lady." He gestured his hand as if he was an escort or what.
