The Fall Of Zoren

The underground bunker that the Duke had been using was just one large room with several different areas. 

There was a section for beds, a section that could be considered a kitchen, there was even a small collection of books and a sitting area. The only area that required a door to enter was the bathroom.

When looking over to the sitting area, Leo noticed a woman seated at one of the couches reading a book. 

"I assumed you were alone here." Leo said.

"I should have said something sooner. Jessamine, could you come over here for a moment!?" The Duke called out from across the room in a friendly manner. 

Jessamine dropped her book in a panic and jumped to her feet while turning to face the Duke. She appeared frightened and raised her hands like she was getting ready for a fight.

" Oh... It's you." She said, lowering her hands and taking a deep breathe "You startled me!"
