Seeing how nervous Luciana was, Alicia almost rolled her eyes. Even though Luciana had come to her with bad intentions, she doubted that the young lady would be bold enough to do anything.

"Yes, if you want to. Why?" Luciana asked curiously, wanting to know why Alicia was interested in the stable or riding a horse.

"Nothing serious. I just want to see that horse..."
