Chapter 85 Not meant for those who want nothing to do with their kingdom.

instantly as his words pierced her skin. Doris silently stood and left his cabin before he could even turn around. If he was anyone else, she would have stood up for herself for once in her life. She would have took the cake and threw it in the trash right in front of him. His stupid title held her tongue and prevented her from smashing the dessert in his face like she wanted to so badly. The look on his face alone would be worth it all. 2 Her rage replaced her embarrassment. She didn’t

Doris started gasping for air, it felt as if her wolf shoved her head above the surface by stabbing her insides.. “Are you insane?” Cordelia growled, her voice rattled through her aching mind and almost made her grasp her ears. “If you have a thought like that again, I’ll never allow you near another bath in your life.” “Wonderful,” Doris gasped and gripped the sides of the tub. “Then I’ll ward him away with my smell if you do that. I think it’s a great idea.” Doris stood and wrapped a towel around herself before she stepped out of the tub. “I truly think you’re exaggerating.” Cordelia said, almost as if she was amused but Doris wasn’t laughing. “I am not. He’s the most awful person—” Doris stopped dead when she opened the door to her room and saw William standing in the middle of it. He had her coat clenched tightly in his hand.

She could practically feel his eyes follow her back. “Is there anything else you need?” She asked over her shoulder.

A shiver ran across her skin, suddenly she felt ice cold and her heat from before had been fully doused. His eyes trailed the mark he left on her neck all those months ago.
