Nia stepped away from them. The room was sparkling clean and she knew that Ona won't need her anymore.
"Are you okay Princess Ona?" Kalus asked as he took one step away from her, arched his stomach to meet her forehead, and blew air on it.
His breath seeped through her skin so slim that she found her eyes shutting slowly driving her to the unknown portal.
"Princess?" Kalus called out her name. "Princess Ona." Kalus had worry written all over his face that he had to use his thump to rub her soft cheek.
Gosh… Ona felt her cheeks warming up. Luckily with her skin tone, redness won't flash on her cheeks. She quickly spaced in then took a few steps away from him and quickly said, "Thank you, I'm okay and your room is ready for you to settle in, I hope you will enjoy everything in here…. Good ni-." Gosh, she nearly said her night, it was not even in the afternoon.
Her legs made a rapid turn and trotted out to her room, but instead, she called out her servant's name.

Kalus strode inside. His eyes wandered into the room and scrutinized every corner inside. It was so attractive and appealing to his eyes. He walked to the bedside and ran his long fingers on the cream-white satin sheets and loved how expensive they felt on the fingertips.
He made an impressed facial expression before going to his large leathered brown bag and sat on the huge comfortable bed, after he put the bag on the bed too. He opened the bag but remembered to close the door to lock it. He did.
Kalus was there to work not there to entertain with Ona, but having Ona there he knew that it was going to make his plan easy.
He took out a small black side bag and placed it inside the side drawer first before taking out his clothes to the large closet.
The room was spacious, so bright inside same as the whole palace. It had less gold inside like other palaces. The landscape looked extraordinary than the other kingdoms he worked for.
To him, he loved everything about the palace.
His clothes were packed neatly inside the closet by him and he felt a need to take a shower before going through the papers he had brought.
A knock came through his door. He took a moment before walking up to the door to open it. He grasped the door knob and anticlockwise it slowly to unlock then opened the door quarterly.
"Oh, sorry sir, my apologies, the Queen brought me here to tell you that the food is ready," the male servant said after he swiftly bowed when he encountered the bare chest of Kalus.
A wry smile escaped his lips, "It's okay, tell the King and Queen that I will be there in a moment.
But Kalus had a hint of disappointment written all over his face when he closed the door.
Was he expecting to be Ona?
Well, he strode inside the bathroom, all made of different textures of stones with their hues and oak woods, he had loved everything in there. It simplified the palace as his dream.
He ran the faucet and, "Mmmmh," he moaned when the warm water hit his bare white skin leaving it to hot pink.
Kalus had no tattoo on his body, not even a single one he was a bit hairy on his body but he always made sure that his chest was clean.
He wrapped his body with a white and long white towel to dry off the droplets of water that were cascading all over his body to the floor.
The modicum rough stone felt so good under his feet.
