Introductions

Selene hesitantly looks at the stubborn nuisance walking with her side by side as they weave through the garden path and to the adjacent mansion where Kaden brought the slaves from yesterday. Selene thought that Prince Nicolai will be leaving after his conversation with the Marchioness, but she was sorely mistaken. He will be staying in the fief for a while, and they will travel together to the capital. They were scheduled to leave five days from now.

And back to her current dilemma, despite her adamant refusal for his company, the stubborn Prince of the Empire didn't heed it. He plans to eat some snacks together with her and the others just as she originally planned. Selene feels like she's going to have indigestion later.

"Try to be nice to them," Selene muttered in frustration while she continues walking with her gaze looking straight up ahead.
