The Taken Of Lena
The carriage began to move, and Lena felt somewhat lulled by the steady, gentle rocking motion.
"You're quiet, Lena. What are you thinking?" Renz asked eventually. Lena was surprised by his sudden interest in her thoughts.
"I was just looking at that building over there. It's beautiful," Lena answered.
"That's Berliner Stadtschloss. The city palace," Renz said.
"Have you ever been inside?" Lena asked curiously. Renz laughed, hard, and Lena's face flamed hot with embarrassment.
"You are quite adorable, Lena. Yes, I have been inside. On many occasions," he replied.
