Annabeth flinched, her mind not recognizing the voice. She didn't want to turn around.
"My Lady?" The voice called out again, it's hand tapping her shoulder. "My Lady, what are you doing here by yourself?"
Annabeth clenched her fist and shrugged his hand away. She was about to turn and run but she stopped when she realized who it was. She almost said his name out loud and instead did a deep bow to apologize multiple times.
Antonio smiled. "It's ok, it's ok."
Annabeth gave another bow and was about to give another one when he grabbed her shoulders and held her up.
"I said I'm ok," Antonio chuckled, his face spreading into a smile. His gray-blue eyes filled with amusement when she had started to bow.
His eyes searched through the veil on her face to find Annabeth's eyes but she wasn't looking up at him, her eyes focused down when her shoulders relaxed and she let out a deep breath of air.
