Chapter 261
Rose couldn’t contain her excitement as she got another look around the kingdom. Zayne promised to take her somewhere exciting but would not reveal it to her to ruin the surprise.
She thought about where he wanted to take her. Could they be going for more vases for her flowers? To visit a friend or a relative?
Rose wanted Zayne to be out with it as she couldn’t wait for the surprise. The way he sat looking amused by her made her suspicious of what he wanted to show her. This was just a trip around for new scenery so what was he smiling about?
Rose leaned back on her seat. "Are you that happy to see me looking around or are you up to something? Strangely, you didn’t push for us to be seated next to each other so what are you waiting to see?"
"Nothing. Seeing you happy makes me happy. If you want me to sit beside you, you only need to ask. Should I?" Zayne asked.
Rose shook her head. "No. You are up to something. I thought we were going to have a relaxing time out. Tell me, what is it that you have planned or would you rather keep secrets from your wife?"
"You know I wouldn’t keep secrets from you. I was thinking it would be nice to get a companion for you so on the days I have to be away from the estate, there will be someone beside you. I know a good place," said Zayne, his smile unknowingly widening.
His response was not what she thought of.
"A companion? Like a dog or a cat?" Rose asked, more interested in this than the scenery. "I would love one but isn’t it too much responsibility? I will be busy for a while so wouldn’t that make them sad?"
