Lucian and Zane's horses came to a stop in front of a large building that was brightened up with lamps and torches, though the building was located inside the huge walls of the palace, it was at the very end of it. Even from outside, one could hear the loud laughter and musical instruments flowing out of the building.
Lucian dismounted his horse and handed it to Zane to go and tie them up at the horse stand before they made their way into the building. This was Lucian's first time visiting a courtesan's house or being anywhere near a courtesan in years. He'd only ever had one, and that was a long time ago, which he could barely remember. Though being here didn't sit well with him, he had no choice if he wanted to stop being bothered and aroused by thoughts of Ave.
