All the Time You Need
“You don’t have to send anyone along with me. Seriously. I’m not the least bit concerned for my safety outside the castle walls. You might not believe me when I tell you that there was no mystery man who locked me inside that arbor, but I know it’s the truth, so I know I have no one to fear. All I need you to do is to tell your men that it’s okay to let me travel beyond the gates. That’s all I’m asking of you.”
The expression on Annie’s face as she spoke convinced Alex that she actually expected... him to agree to her ridiculous request. That she didn’t realize how ridiculous her story sounded amazed him. That she didn’t realize that if he were to believe her story, he’d also have to believe that she was there of her own free will. And that supposition would naturally lead to the conclusion that she could very well be a spy. A spy that now wanted to return to whoever had sent her to deliver the information she had gathered.
Her story was such fantasy it might well be something his grandfather would have spun for an evening’s entertainment.MoreLess
