Cedric's laugh was unexpected and carefree; it was one of the rarest things she had heard. It almost made her forget the fact she should be pissed at him for chaining her
She was in no place to complain because he saved her, but who treats their wife who went through a great ordeal this way?
A melodic sound akin to a laugh left his lips, and Abrielle was immediately dumbfounded. "I am glad to see you still have your sharp tongue," Cedric commented, then rose from his seat to approach her bedside. He sat by his side taking a lock of hair he twirled with his fingers.
"Don't mind the chain. I am just keeping my promise; remember I said if you ever run, I will hunt you and then keep you chained by my side." His voice drawled her mind to the night he made that atrocious declaration.
The night they went wild because he was upset she accepted Alfonso's rose on the first day of the rose duel.
