Chapter 17: Snakes (3)
"It's our day off," Cara happily grabbed Annalise's arm. "This is one of the best days in the month for me. I have a dress I've been meaning to buy, and now I finally have enough money saved up. What do you plan to do today?"
"Walk around the market and see what catches my eye. I would like to buy some fruits to keep in my room and snack on at night," Annalise replied.
"Are you alright now? You had me and Jonah worried for you last night. At least you got the dirt out of the blanket. Waking up and washing a blanket on my day off was not in my plans, but I did it because I love you," Cara pinched Annalise's cheeks.
"I know I know. I promise to return you the favor when someone puts dirt-"
"The young master is coming," Cara covered Annalise's mouth with her hand and watched Rafael walk down the stairs.
"Why do we even call him young master? Shouldn't we call him sir?" Annalise mumbled against Cara's hands. The titles were starting to confuse her.
"His father was a low birth knight, but his mother came from wealth though she doesn't like to speak about it too much. He's not just a knight, but an heir to the fortune his mother does not want to take for herself. Mavis said we have to call him young master, but the knights call him Sir Rafael. He looks extremely handsome today," Cara sighed. It should not be possible for one man to be so dashing.
"Do you need a moment alone? My room is available-"
Screams in the distance interrupted Annalise's words.
