Chapter 74

THREE DAYS LATER.

ADESSA.

The last few days have been calm. We arrived at the North without any more trouble.

Since this place was cold, we could go around without any worries. I could wear a winter hat, scarf, and thicker coat. The same was true for Kael. So it was not easy to spot us.

The last days were the best I ever had if I didn't include the times we talked about what needed to be done in case our mission failed. It made me nervous, but all of this showed me how much Kael was putting everything in his life on the line for me. I kept falling in love with him more and more.

And the sex. Oh, Goddess! They were explosive.

With us not restraining ourselves on how we felt, Kael had been adventurous and would always leave me wanting more. But despite us being disappointed I was not pregnant, we were not trying to have a baby. We were actually using contraceptives. We decided to wait until we could fix this trouble I was in.

And I was okay with that. Maybe not getting pregnant was life's way of telling us to enjoy "us" first before we let a little life take all of our time.

I couldn't stop the smile from curling on my lips as I stood in front of the full-length mirror at the thought of having a family with Kael. This was all I ever wanted-a family of my own with the man I loved.

Once I get back to Ironcrest, I will make sure the people begin to like me. Or at least learn to trust me. And I knew this time, Kael would help me achieve that. And maybe this time, everything will finally fall into place.

But first, I needed to be a free woman.

I let out air from my mouth as I scanned myself from head to toe.

I couldn't recognize me. I looked different.

I still had the red hair, and I just let it down. And the makeup was so beautifully done that I couldn't believe I could look this sophisticated.

I decided to go for a simple evening gown to avoid drawing attention. It was simple but sexy, and
