She caught sight of Leroy looking at the window first, then his gaze lingering towards the fireplace before settling right at her. Though the maid was assigned by Silas, it didn't feel like Leroy was assigned by the same person. The guard worked for the Lord directly, following his orders and one of them being keeping an eye on her. Once he had done his necessary inspection he left the maid and her alone.
"Lord Norman and Lady Ester asked me to inform you that we will be having a ball tomorrow in the evening and that you will have to stay here and that your presence wouldn't be required," she heard the maid speak as she ate her food.
"A ball? What kind of ball?" she asked the maid.
"Just the usual one's where the elites gather together with the humans, the nightly creatures of council and Lords. Wher-"
"Lords?" Katie interrupted her.
"Yes, Lords, Ms Katherine. They are the high part of the social class aren't they?" she asked confused.
