Daerev's Displeasure (Ch.162)

Arauth took the long walk back to Jalan's quarters, his mind ridden with thoughts.

He could have made the walk shorter, but with Daerev being less than receiving to him, Arauth found his day had gotten a lot less bright than it had been.

After a tasking day filled with duties, the night was always one to look forward to, especially on nights were they were all of duty and could be together.

Tonight was meant to be such a night but with all that had happened, the night clearly would not go as planned.

And it was completely reasonable that Daerev would choose to watch by Andronika's side all night long than spending the day with them.

It was the right thing to do as Andronika's brother and Arauth completely supported Daerev's choice, if he had earned any rights, Arauth would have chosen to stay by Daerev's side watching over Andronika all night.
