I don't remember how many times I paced around the room that day, waiting for Alessander to come back with the news of who won the duel.
He insisted that I stay and that we keep mine and Jasmine's relationship a secret. To that extent, I was kept under house arrest, with some men stationed at the door to make sure I didn't escape.
I spent the whole day worrying, up until the bedroom door finally opened, but it wasn't Alessander who came in.
"You don't look half as pleased to see me as I imagined." Vasily remarked, stepping into the room.
How did he get in?
What about the guards?
"What do you want? Alessander will be back any moment now, if he sees you here-" I tried to get him to leave, but he sat on our bed, getting too comfortable.
