"My lady, it's been a week since you disappeared again," Lily said, her voice tinged with concern. "Do you know how worried I was for you?"
I felt a pang of guilt, knowing that I couldn't reveal the truth about my whereabouts. Especially not about where I was last night. Just thinking about it made my heart pound in my chest. I should have chosen a different place to...ahem...confess. Of all the places, it had to be his room.
My eyes sparkled with mischief as I gazed around his room, taking in the warm, inviting atmosphere. "I have to say, your Highness," I teased, my voice dripping with playful seduction, "your room is quite...cozy."
His chuckle was low and rumbling, sending shivers down my spine. "I'm glad you approve," he said, his voice husky, making my heart skip a beat.
