The Fall (Part-2)

"Do not worry. I promise I will find a way to let you escape. I will never let anyone harm you."

As Lord Cassius made this damning statement, promising to betray his own wife for her younger sister, surprisingly, he found that it did not hurt him as much as he thought it would.

It was only after saying this that Lord Cassius was starting to find just how little she might have actually mattered to him.

As it was said, their marriage was a political one born out of convenience.

Thus betraying her came more naturally to Lord Cassius than he would have thought, made of course a bit smoother by the fact he had his 'crush' laying on his arms, snuggling and purring.

And hearing this, this 'crush' naturally produced a cute face and great grin, posing like a cat who had just gotten the milk.

Finally, the last piece of her puzzle was there, obediently falling into its place.

She would be out and about this place soon.
