It was Taybur who had met Roy at the city's gates, despite Roy's confidence that by now he would be able to find his way through Rajmuat's streets and up to the palace. It probably was the simplest way to get past the palace's guards without creating too much of a fuss. A fuss would mean that Aly would hear of it and it was hard to surprise someone ( ... )

"Not going to happen," she murmured, turning her head to look at him from under heavy eyelids.

"I'm comfortable," he sighed and he pressed a kiss to her shoulder.

Aly smiled and slid closer to him, her hand snaking up over his waist. "Be less comfortable when Dove sends someone in to roust us up."
