Chapter 124: Plans are ready

"What are you doing?" She asked him as she nervously clung to him. Knowing how rapidly the switch in his head can flip, she was quite daring questioning him like this. It was fine; Abrielle had already come to terms with the fact he made her do the dumbest things.

Cedric always made her lose her cool, and in the end, she made a lot of dumb mistakes after a lack of proper evaluation. "You said you wanted a warm soak, my bath house is more relaxing than a tub." He casually answered. She bit her lips as she stared back at his side profile.

What was Wrong with him? Did the drug make him lose a couple of his nuts? For starters, he was meant to Despise her, especially now Callista was in the story; the original Cedric would rather bleed to death than touch his wife due to his feelings for Callista.

He never touched Abrielle except from when they consummated the marriage. Yet this Cedric didn’t have any issues with destroying her insides with his member and now he was acting too nice in her opinion. She had expected he would leave after the deed was done in the morning to the palace.

"Who did it?" She asked and felt his muscles go taunt. "You should not bother much about that and focus on taking care of the castle." His voice was cold this time around. Finally back to the guy she recognized.

"Well, I deserve to know when I was at the receiving end. Honestly, if you are worried I might do something stupid, don’t be. The last thing I need is to get unnecessary enemies, but I deserve to know who to avoid for my safety." Abrielle suggested, Cedric didn’t answer and continued walking towards the bathhouse. The door opened and they entered the room filled with mist.

Cedric placed her at the edge of the heated pool that had a warm spring in the middle. Honestly, she didn’t understand how something like this was designed in this world, but the warm water was indeed soothing.

"If you want to avoid everyone that stands a threat, a piece of advice: avoid my entire family." He answered, he was behind her as he spoke. His hands held the brim of her dress he pulled off leaving her completely naked.

She was stunned to realize she was wearing just the night dress. Why would a maid do that? His advice was not wrong. She was fully aware of that fact, but she was genuinely curious about who drugged him. This didn’t happen at this point of the plot, and when it did, the person behind it was Eleanor, who wanted to set Cedric up with a foreign princess.

"That was not a direct answer," Abrielle sneered; she slipped into the water and was glad it was shallow, knowing she didn’t know how to swim. "Don’t stray too far from the edge; the farther you go, the deeper the water. We both know you can’t swim." Cedric advised her. He was stripping off his clothes before joining her.

Abrielle averted her eyes for her sanity’s sake. It was hard staring at his face not to talk of his entire body. "It’s not my fault; I can’t swim. I never got to learn. As the only child with a weak constitution, my mother didn’t want to take any risks." She answered drawing the conversation. She heard Cedric enter the water. Luckily, he swam far away towards the centre, which she was grateful for.

Unknown to her, he was keeping his distance for their good. His hands inched, seeing her completely bare, but he dared not act on those urges, knowing how badly sored she was.

"You should take lessons, you never know what might happen. " Cedric suggested; the middle of the pool was so deep that Cedric could completely immerse himself in the water, and he was very tall.

"Maybe, if I have the spare time." She answered. Abrielle was intrigued by the pool system. It turned out that the water was constantly regulated and replaced by an intricate system, and more surprisingly, it was connected to actual hot springs near the castle grounds.

This world did have some technology that didn’t fit into the era. That’s what made it a fantasy world. Not everything was accurate. After a long soak and a bath Abrielle was feeling way better.

The maids came to attend to her in Cedric’s room before they later had breakfast together in his chambers without going to the main dining room.

The meal was pleasant, they spoke about some random topics and Cedric didn’t flip the switch the entire time. She was expecting him to leave for the palace, but after being summoned over to the king’s court, he still turned down the invitation using the excuse he wasn’t feeling too well.

After breakfast, she left for her room which was in the mistress chambers. Standing in front of her door was a little fur ball that was waiting for her. "Yuki," she called out excitedly seeing the cat that quickly turned towards its master voice running to her. Abrielle squatted down to pick him up.

"How was your night?" She asked the cat who just meowed. It sounded a bit sad. "Yuki stayed dejected by your door all night, your Highness." She heard a familiar voice say. Abrielle glanced over to Zoltana who had followed her back to her room. "Oh, my poor baby."

Holding Yuki in her arms, she entered the room with Zoltana, who closed the door behind her. Yesterday they had an unfinished conversation. The cat purred in Abrielle’s arms, rubbing its body against her face. It was so cute. It was hilarious such a cute thing tried to scare her off.

"You have something to tell me," Abrielle mentioned, turning towards Zoltana, who nodded. "Yes, it concerns the unsealing. Everything is ready, and I have secured a way to sneak you out of the castle. The problem is that we might go out the entire night, but I think we can manage. All we just have to do is pick a day the prince isn’t in." Zoltana explained making it seem like Cedric was unaware of the unsealing.

Abrielle’s eyes sparkled with excitement at the thought of leaving the castle for a night. She wasn’t excited about the unsealing but the fact she could leave this toxic space. If it was possible, she would have fled the capital, but there was no way she could pull that off.

Cedric had eyes all over. There was a slim chance they might be caught during their little escape to the mainland.
