Chapter 46: Quest completed
The thought of Sarah being ready to risk her life gave her goosebumps. Abrielle adjusted her sitting position to hug her leg as a fleeting thought crossed her mind would she be able to change her fate
"Why would she be willing to go that far?" She mumbled it seemed absurd to her why someone would be willing to risk their life for a mission.
"The same question on my mind but I guess she knew her fate was worse if she had survived." Cedric casually mentioned and for a slight moment, his aura changed giving Abrielle goosebumps again. She was sure he would have tortured Sarah to the point she would have wished for death but it would never come.
"I have never offended anyone to the point of them putting me on a kill list, not that I am claiming to be a saint." Abrielle’s head was bowed on her knees. Cedric almost felt sorry for her and a long sigh left his lips.
The reason her life was attacked was solely because she married him, some people could not afford to let him have such strong support.
"You don’t have to offend anyone for them to wish you dead at times, just your existence is a sin. In your case your sin was getting married to me, you should have tried harder to run away that day." Cedric chimed, there was no sympathy in his voice, Abrielle doubted he was capable of feeling the emotion called sympathy.
"Thanks for the advice, if I were to do it all over again I would not have used a horse to escape the morning of the wedding and be careful to make sure my fiance doesn’t find out about my plans." She joked which made Cedric smile at her sense of humour.
Even if she was to do it all over again he doubted he would have let her escape not after getting to know the kind of crazy person she was plus she was kind of important for his plans.
"I am glad you still have a sense of humour. That’s enough, I will inform the maids to attend to your needs." He rose from the bed heading for the door but was stopped by Abrielle.
