Chapter 264
As night came upon the kingdom, Rose finished up dinner with Zayne. The bet they made earlier in the day was still fresh on her mind as she was eager to win it and shut Zayne up this time.
Rose was certain she would win since it was only going one night without sleeping with Zayne. She glanced at Zayne, careful not to let him notice that she was staring. She wished to know what he was thinking.
Rose waited for the maids to clear the plates from the table and then stood up now that she would be out of their way.
"I will walk you there," Zayne offered his hand.
Rose was suspicious of him doing this since he needed to find another room to be in for the night. She accepted his offer to walk together and started to make her way to her room with Krystle quietly following behind them to get Rose ready for the night.
"You have not forgotten, have you?" Rose asked, curious if he was going to play pretend like they had not made the bet.
Rose was careful with her words, not wanting to let Krystle overhear that they had made such a silly bet all because she didn’t want to bring home a bunny. The servants might laugh behind their backs if they were to find out.
"I have not. It is not too late for you to back out and in the morning we will go to find a bunny. I saw a cute little one which reminded me of you today. I can have a place made for them fast," said Zayne.
Rose was even more determined to win now that he mentioned a bunny again. She would not stand by and allow him to tease her anymore.
