Unable To Escape (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 55
The carriage carrying Alicia safely exited the outer city and joined Killian’s group, who had been waiting for her.
“We need to switch carriages.”
Though the carriage from the capital bore no markings, Casa explained they should change to another one as a precaution against unforeseen incidents. Alicia nodded and carefully moved outside the carriage.
They had barely left the capital, yet the scenery around them had already changed completely.
Under the circular protection of the knights surrounding her, Alicia boarded the carriage Killian had prepared in advance.
Though this new carriage appeared far more ordinary than the previous one, its interior was more than adequate for carrying someone of high importance.
“Lady White will take charge of the carriage. My men and I will lead the way. Viscount, please stay with the Royal Guard knights at the rear of the carriage.”
Aside from Alicia, Marisa, the Viscount, Casa, and the physician Tilly, the remaining members consisted of Killian, six members of Badulf’s unit, and four Royal Guard knights.
Among them, the sight of Killian and Badulf’s unit leading the group plainly revealed what they considered the greatest threat on this journey.
“My lord Duke, shall I take a few men ahead to scout the road?”
A man with neatly trimmed, vivid crimson hair rode up beside Killian and asked.
Killian stroked his horse’s neck to calm it—his mount disliked strangers approaching—and gave a brief nod.
“Take two with you.”
“I’ll be back shortly. Numbers One and Two, follow me.”
“I keep telling you to call us by name, Captain.”

This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…

Alicia, after being convinced of the need to cut ties with Killian, began to waver again.
Did he say this in front of everyone. This is embarrassing. (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<⁄ ⁄)
Why did they leave Alicia alone in the carriage? 🤔 A maid or knight was supposed to stay by her side.
