"You've worked hard I see," Kaidan commented, eying the impressive stack of books and scrolls on and beside the desk. "Come take a break and get some fresh air."
Veronica followed dutifully behind as the humans joined them, and Alexan matched their step.
"How are you lovely?"
She blushed, unable to hide her smile. "Well, thank you."
The King took Aurelia's arm as he led them to the anterior courtyard. "Tell me about today." His smile was so warm.
She blushed, quickly relaying the answers they'd found. Their morning swordwork session was already the talk of the palace, and he was eager to hear the details.
The group talked & laughed through the brightest time of day.
Aurelia was the only one who didn't notice that her hair lightened another shade over the hour.
