A Love Letter

At Royal Roosevelt Palace,

Lothar went to his study to do some work so that Zander could help Eugenie. So Orla was resting in her chambers. 

Orla didn't have much time on her hands, but she wished to wait until the coronation of Alora as a Crown Princess and Eugenie as a Queen. She could rest in peace after it. Hence she was obediently taking a rest.

After a nap, she was leaning on the bedpost and reading a book when her lady-in-waiting reported to her, "Your Majesty, General Darwin is requesting your audience."

Orla wondered the possible reason. She hoped Arihan wasn't there to ask her to let him off from training Alora. She nodded at the lady-in-waiting, agreeing to see Arihan. 

Orla added in a soft voice, "Close the door as you leave." Every conversation with Arihan was sensitive after Alora's return.

Arihan entered inside, showing no hint of emotion on his face. One couldn't say he was pale and bone-weary a few minutes before.
