Chapter 102: 102. You're Welcome

Mauve wrapped herself, rubbing her shoulders simultaneously as watched Jael leave the room. She was fine, he had already spent a lot of time with her to ask that he should stay more would just be selfish on her part.

He stopped with his hand on the handle and turned around to look at her. "Are you going to be okay?" He asked.

Mauve felt her face break in a smile. "Of course, I am fine. Stop worrying."

His eyes stayed on her for a few seconds before he turned the handle and walked out of the door. Mauve blinked at the closed door, she could feel a chill going up her spine even though there was no reason for that.

She rubbed her shoulders some more. She kept her eyes glued to the door as she sat in the same spot. She couldn't explain why she was feeling anxious. 

She got out of bed and tried to walk around to take the edge off. The pacing didn't help, it only made her more anxious. Mauve sat back on the bed, maybe she should read a book.

A knock sent her flying to her feet. She froze for a millisecond, her mind going blank. Another knock and she broke free from the trance.

"Who is it?" She called out.

"Sire sent me," the voice said, Mauve could hear his annoyance.

"Erick!" She called out, realizing this was the first time she was saying his name out loud. "Come in."
