Chapter 45 Hunting Expedition

• Cercei's POV
• The car trip lasted approximately 30 minutes, taking us far away from the bustling city. As the urban landscape faded, buildings became scarce, and the sparse lights disappeared. Our surroundings transformed into a dense forest engulfed in darkness.
• The entire ride was suffused with an uncomfortable silence, neither of us willing to utter a single word. Eventually, he pulled the car to the side of the road. I surveyed our surroundings, realising we were on a desolate path, rarely crossed by other vehicles. He unfastened his seatbelt and turned towards me while I kept my gaze fixed ahead, attempting to ignore his presence.
