As Above, So Below

Adeline's body flopped like a rag doll over Jacques' shoulder as he rushed her into the secret tunnel that she had used to escape so many years ago. Jacques sped through the tunnels to the underground palace as quickly as his feet could manage. It wasn't long before they reached their destination. Adeline looked up once they arrived to see that the palace looked exactly the same as the last time they visited.

Jacques finally stopped once he reached the entrance hall. Dropping Adeline onto the floor, he propped her up and gripped her shoulders, "Okay, we're here. I know you know something. Now's the time to talk."

Adeline looked at him with a blank smile, "How do you know I know something?"

Jacques gritted his teeth, "Because the last time we spoke as friends, you looked guilty like you were hiding something. Of course, it was probably after you slept with Peter." His eyes narrowed at the thought of Prince Peter.
