Caanan left Anica in the solitude of her room to change and prepare for lunch. The days events had put Anica in a good mood. She was glad that she found someone whom she could talk to.

When she reached the table Drake was already seated. He merely glanced at her and continued sipping his wine.

"You seem to be in a good mood." He said rather mockingly.

"And that's a bad thing?" Anica could not comprehend why that could possibly upset him. Didn't he want her to be happy?

Drake ignored her question and continued taking small sips of his wine while awaiting his food.

Anica leaned back in her chair and decided to spend her time admiring the beautiful artwork on the ceiling rather then argue with Drake who was clearly acting very immature. 

The food came in a few minutes and the silence was filled with the faint clattering of silver cutlery.

Anica glanced around the room, watching the on looking guards, hoping to find a familiar face. 

"Where is Caanan?" She asked, getting back to her food.

"He is engaged elsewhere. Why do you ask?"

She shrugged. "Just wanted to know. Why? Jealous much?"

Drake shot her a glare. Anica burst out laughing, only to receive another stern glare from Drake.

"You are not to engage in any further contact with Caanan. Have I made myself clear?"

Anica flared up with rage. "Screw you! You cant tell me who I can and cannot talk to!"

"You will not speak to me that way!" He was mad now but Anica was equally angry.

"I will talk however I want! Especially if you're going to act like such a little girl over everything!"

Drake stood up, filled with rage. Anica cowered in her seat, intimidated by his ferociousness.

"You need to learn your place Anica. I have treated you with utmost hospitality and you have been nothing but ungrateful."

 "Excuse me!" Anica said now rising as well. "You have been hospitable? So locking me up in disgusting dungeons for days on end is your idea of showing me hospitality? You've been keeping me here against my will, telling me what to do, what to wear, what to say and you expect me to be grateful for it! What the fuck is wrong with you! How can you be so messed up in the head!"  

She was glaring at him and breathing really heavily. Hot tears of frustration found their way down her cheeks making her even more mad.

Drake was relatively calm. He was visibly angry but he didn't say or do anything.

 "I am quite sick of all this unnecessary banter, Anica."

"Then just let me go!"

"You know I can't do that."

"Can't or won't."

The endless silence swallowed them up.

"I don't get it. What do you get out of this. What is the point of it! I'm not Julliet!"

"What I get out of it is none of your concern. If you are finished with lunch please allow Jakins to escort you to your room."

"I know my way around thank you very much." She said rather snarkily as she made her way up to her room.
