Fake Lovers

Anne flaunted the man by holding his hands when they walked out of the carriage.

Her intimacy showed that they knew each other for a long time. Anyone would think they were lovers.

The man felt a bit strange, but the man did not like the touch of a beautiful woman everyone desired. He felt the desire bubbling in his heart too and his heart raced wildly.

"Do you think that shop will be fine?" he nodded without a thought and they walked in.

The palace was a quiet one with only a few patrons that were busy with their own work. Anne picked up a corner and sat on the plush chair there.

The moment she sat and scanned the whole room, her demeanor changed, "you must have been wondering why I chose you and brought you here?" 

Her cold words flinched and he nodded his head instantly while sitting straighter.
