Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne

Chapter 103 The prince would bring hell to bring you back to him.

Doris stood on top of the dresser again as she tried to peer out of the small window, but she was a tad too short. It looked as if the frost from the outside had sealed it shut beyond hope. She still tried to shove at the window even though she knew there was no hope for her hips to get through. Mr. Hugh was right, it was quite literally big enough for a rabbit to fit through and nothing more. Still, she wished she could open it if only to get a bit of fresh air and feel the cold snow on her face. She never thought she would miss the feeling of it, but it was better than sitting in a room against her will.

A knock at the door made Doris scramble off the dresser and quickly right herself before it opened. She straightened her clothes just as the guard entered-Joseph stood with raised brows as he looked her over. “Are you alright?”

Doris tried to tame her breathing. “Yes, of course.”

When she gave no other explanation, he walked further into the room. “It seems you were wrong on your assumption.”

“What do you mean?” Doris furrowed her brows.

“It seems someone from the prince’s party is already here to discuss your release. I’ve come to collect you, Mr. Hugh wants you in the room. Apparently they want to make sure we haven’t tortured you.” 1 “What? That’s impossible. I saw them all leave before the attack on Enzo. He-they swore they weren’t coming back.” “Well, they must have turned back for you.” Joseph opened the door a bit wider and held out a pair of wrist cuffs with a sorrowful grin. “Sorry for this. Mr. Hugh is convinced you’ll run the second you walk out the door.”

Doris rolled her eyes and held out her wrists for him to cuff. Mr. Hugh definitely wasn’t wrong. She may not have known this part of Life Pharmacy, but she would have done her best to get out of his grasp and find a way out if she had a chance.

Joseph didn’t tighten the metal after he clasped it. His hands lingered for a moment before he released her and let her walk in front of him down the halls. He directed which hallway to turn down until finally she reached a set of large doors that stretched to the ceiling. She could hear distant voices already in a deep conversation beyond the wood. Did William or Enzo send someone to come for her-1

Joseph raised arm around her and knocked on the door loud enough to silence them. A second later, the doors opened and Patrick stood on the other side. If William’s beta was here, that meant William really did turn back for her.
