Chapter 201

Sabrina’s POV:

“Do you like it?” Caldan asked, his eyes peeking at me from under his long lashes.

I nodded, pressing my lips tightly together. Dear heavens this is the most delicious cake I’ve ever had in my life. The flavors are like an explosion on my tongue, and it’s taking a lot of my self control not to moan in delight.

Don’t do that Sabrina, that’s weird.

But the whole day has been weird. Caldan asked me to dinner as opposed to the usual evening walk we took. I was shocked, really. But I didn’t say no. He took me to the rose garden rooftop which I had learned earlier belonged to lady Nifra, “She doesn’t know we’re here,” Caldan had whispered to me. “As long as we don’t hurt her precious roses, we’ll be fine.”

I made a mental note to not even harm a single leaf on the roses. They looked lovely, and in the evening sun they looked even lovelier. There was a table laid out with mouthwatering dishes that made me realize how hungry I was. Everything tasted divine.

But nothing compared to the dessert.

“It’s good,” I said once I had composed myself enough to speak. It’s really good, whoever made this deserves to

chef.

Caldan chuckled, his head dipped low. “That’s because the royal chef made it.”

My eyes went wide. “What?! The royal….for me?”

“Yes, for you,” He said with a smile. “You said you liked chocolate!

“I said that only once, and it was a mere passing remark. You remembered it?”

He nodded, picking up his wineglass and taking a delicate sip of the red liquid. “I can tell when things are said as a joke and when they aren’t.

Calm down my heart. Calm down. It’s not a big deal that he remembered, you remember small details too.

I looked at the plate of half eaten chocolate cake, and my stomach twisted. Did I deserve this? A dessert made by the royal

chef?

“Rina Caldan called. “I know what you’re thinking right now, and all want to say is yes,”

I looked at him and smiled. “How do you know what I’m thinking?”

“You’re thinking about how amazing the cake is, and you want a second serving.”

I laughed softly. I do want seconds, yes. So I’d say you’re right on the money.”

I ate more of the cake. It’s so good I could cry.

“Don’t you want some wine? Caldan asked,

“No. I can’t risk getting drunk”

I’m a terrible drunk. Memories from the last time alcohol touched my lips flashed through my mind and I shuddered. I had banished those memories to the deepest darkest part of my mind, and with them I had learned to never taste alcohol again.
