Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne

Chapter 124 A good day to find peace

The next morning, all of the guards were already up and ready by the time Doris had crawled out of the small cave. At some point in the morning, William must have left to join them without waking her. She woke up freezing in his coat and wishing he hadn’t left her at all. Doris quickly squashed those feelings into a million pieces as she wandered out into the daylight.

Enzo looked fresh as day when she saw him. Someone must have had spare clothes for him because he looked as if nothing had happened to him. When he saw her, a grin broke out across his face.

“There she is. I almost had to send your grumpy prince in there to drag you out.” He said.

Doris snorted and crossed her arms. She searched through the small crowd and saw William with his head bent in conversation with Patrick.

“Seriously, how are you fine? I don’t see any trace of a wound on you and I swore you looked haggard yesterday.” Doris said with raised brows.

“It’s not very kind to point out your friends looks, Doris. Hasn’t anyone ever told you that?” Enzo tilted his head.
