Chapter 91


    Chapter 91 This could go wrong.


    The snow lightly fell above them as they stood by the stables. Light kes piled on William’s dark curls


    and distracted her for a moment. William and Patrick looked almost unrecognizable in theirmoner


    clothes. Patrick had holes in his gloves and his hair was almost as messy as William’s. Doris curled her


    fingers at her sides to prevent herself from reaching out to run her fingers through William’s locks just to


    try to tame it. She hated how much she liked it when it was a pure mess. She was part of the reason it


    looked that way, he rolled out of bed and didn’t even attempt to fix it. She couldn’t help but notice that he


    stood closer to her than he normally did, with his hands shoved deep in his pockets and his eyes on their


    surroundings. Enzo had one of his more… run down carriages being filled with the things they would


    need. It made Doris a bit nervous, how long would they be there for? She tried not to allow her mind to


    wander into unwanted territories, but it was impossible when it was all she could think about. The


    moment she slid out of his arms and into her clothes again, she felt different when she looked at him. For


    the first time, she didn’t think of the fact that he was a prince-it was like she had almost forgotten that for


    a minute. She was so far gone from the maid she was when she left the pce, it was hard to even


    consider going back to that girl. A small part of her would always feel like she had to obey orders, but a


    bigger part of her wouldn’t let her be stepped on anymore. She knew Cordelia was to thank for that. “Ah,


    you all look great.” Enzo pped his hands and tore her from her thoughts.” Well, good enough. I hardly


    recognized you three without your fancy royal attire that you tried to pass as poor clothes.” “How long will


    we be gone?” Doris asked as she nervously eyed the carriage. “Well, they believe you three are there to


    live. We couldn’t send you with just one bag.” Enzo smiled down at her. “Your trip length is up to you


    three. However long it takes you to find what you need.” “Is there anything else we should know before


    we leave?” Patrick asked. “Yes. Don’t take it personally if some don’t like you when you get there. A lot of


    the workers can be pretty cut throat when ites to their job and getting ahead. Try to find theid back


    types, they’re looser with their lips and easier to get things out of.” Enzo looked at all three of them. “And


    one more thing… don’t be caught where you’re not supposed to be. Punishment is ruthless “Ruthless?


    Aren’t you the owner of Life Pharmacy?” Patrick stood a little straighter as if he was just realizing what he


    was getting into. “Yes, but I have others in my ce when I’m not there. I won’t be there for this


    adventure, I want to keep myself as separated as possible so any wrongdoing will be handled by them.”


    Doris nced up at William to see his brows furrowed. She couldn’t tell if he was worried or annoyed at


    the moment, but she was a bit of both.   “Alright, I will see you off. Don’t forget your identities and you


    three cane up with a back story on the way there. It’ll be a few hours at least.” Enzo opened the


    door and reached out his hand to help Doris up. William was there instead, he gripped her hand and


    helped her into the carriage with his hand on her lower back before Enzo could touch her. He only looked


    amused at William’s persistence as he stepped back. William went in next, he sat next to Doris while


    Patrick sat across from them. Enzo gripped the frame and looked them over onest time. “This could go


    wrong, you may learn things that you never wanted to know or you may be caught and ripped apart. I


    have already put out a warning to the rogues not to harm the prince if they ever see him when you first


    came, but that has clearly not mattered to many of them. I wish you all luck and I hope to see you again.”


    Enzo nodded before he closed the door and smacked the side of the carriage to let the driver know


    they’re ready. It took off in a messyunch and William reached out his arm to steady her so she didn’t


    fall into Patrick’sp. Patrick’s eyes flickered between them with a hint of suspicion, but something made


    Doris think that he already knew without having to see her blush. “So, Isabelle and James, eh? Who’s


    brother am I?” “Mine.” William said. Doris nced between them and bit her lip. They looked very


    different. She couldn’t pin point one simrity between them and she doubted anyone else would think


    they were brothers at the camp. “What about cousin? I’m not sure if you will pass as brothers. Enzo


    mentioned that we can give him a role ourselves.” Doris suggested. “Alright, what’s our story? We came


    to the north to escape the wretched kingdom?” Patrick said with a smirk. William rolled his eyes and


    leaned back against the seat with his thigh pressed against her own. He hadn’t looked at her much since


    they… since what happened between them. But he was closer to her, to the point that she noticed he


    was always inches from touching her. She hadn’t been alone one second with her thoughts, part of her


    was d for it. She knew she would regret her entire existence the second silence crept in. “We can say


    we left one of the towns after they mistreated us for being poor—“ Doris said. “How did they mistreat


    us?” Patrick interrupted. “We could say they tried to take your beautiful wife for themselves.” PatrickN?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    closely but said nothing. Patrick grinned at her. “We haven’t even got there yet, that’s when the real


    nervese.”
