Chapter 11: It’s Cleaning Time
Annalise stared at the empty space in front of her with a look of surprise and confusion on her face. Just a moment ago, she was wrapped up in Lord Valerius’ arms and the next moment, he disappeared without any warning.
No! He didn’t leave the library. He actually disappeared in thin air, leaving her behind all alone and confused about what he meant to say by calling her a threat. When did she become a threat? And how?
Annalise wasn’t sure what he meant to say or what meaning she should make out of his words. Besides, she was too shocked after seeing him using one of the most powerful spells that had ever existed - teleportation.
Exactly who were these Dark Lords? And just how powerful they were?
The questions were there but no one answered them. For a moment, she wondered if she did the right thing by marrying three complete strangers. She didn’t even know their names before she met Kenric upon her arrival at the castle.
And while she now, at least, knew their names, that was all that she was aware of about her mysterious husbands. Just what she had gotten herself into!
Letting out a small sigh, Annalise too decided to leave the library for the time being. The little adventure of hers with Lord Valerius had left her too shaken. Besides, it seemed like her stomach finally needed some food.
Walking out of the library, she headed downstairs. There was still another floor left for her to check but she decided to do that later sometime.
She still wasn’t sure where the kitchen was but she recalled Sera saying that it was somewhere on the ground floor. So she set out to search for the kitchen.
