Tanin sat back in her chair, scanning through the documents Leila had brought when Leila suddenly paused, her brows furrowing in thought. She glanced around the room before leaning closer to Tanin and lowering her voice.

"Tanin, is there anyone else at home right now?" Leila asked, her voice cautious.

Tanin blinked at the sudden change in tone but answered without hesitation. "Yes. Dowager Amelia, Lyra, and Antara are all here. Why?"

Leila bit her lip, considering something, then said, "I need to show you something. Is there a study or an office where we can talk privately? Somewhere no one else will walk in on us."

Tanin frowned but nodded, standing from her seat. "We can go to Damian's study. It's quiet, and no one really goes in there without permission."
