--The Nydisian Kingdom, The Castle, The Dining Hall--
"Lady Katherine!" Nicole shouted as soon as Katherine entered the hall. "Come sit," Nicole had taken quite a liking towards the human, Alexander, on the other hand, did not trust Lucian and the same extended towards Katherine.
Katherine didn't want to seem rude so she smiled politely and sat down beside the vampiress. "How are you enjoying your stay at the castle?" Nicole inquired, as the maids who were setting up the dining table passed by them.
"It is very grand and beautiful of course," Katherine answered. She did not come from a poor background, but at the same time, she genuinely lived a simple life and was not used to all these luxuries.
Nicole glanced briefly at Lady Alice, Alexander's sister, as she took a seat on the opposite side of the table. "Oh, that's good to hear. Where in Nydisia are you from?" Nicole asked, turning her attention back to Katherine.
