Chapter 260: Such a beautiful sight

"Lord Ayas." Elize acknowledged through clenched teeth.

Her mind raced with the possibility of escape routes. But the only way out was through him or going right back up the stairs to the palace. A familiar creepiness hung around him like she had experienced it elsewhere. In the silence of the early morning, his footsteps echoed in the stable, making her tense. She suddenly felt like someone was watching her. Elize looked around but couldn't find anyone. Something was not right.

Elize felt like she was being cornered, and the wolf inside her was pushing to come out. But she held back. It was no time to act. Like the air around her turned thick and murky, her breathing grew strained. She narrowed her eyes at him suspiciously. Why was this a familiar feeling when she had not met him more than twice and that too for brief moments?
