Saraphine moves towards the bed and drags Nicholas with her. She sits on the bed and the queen Mother stares at Saraphine as though she was some sort of foreign object she had never seen before. The queen Mother gets on her feet and moves towards little Saraphine. She did not even focus on Nicholas whom was supposed to be the object of interest.
Although the man would not let the Queen Mother lay a finger on his little girl, Saraphine was prepared to go to the Queen Mother. She was prepared to know the kind of people that surrounded them back then. And dangerous as it may sound, she was eager and excited to know these things. It was almost as if dangerous adventures and shocking mysteries were her thing. The Queen Mother stops when she gets to Nicholas. Nicholas was holding Saraphine behind his back so she had to stare at him first.
"You seem to have grown taller." Was what she first said to him. "Did you get even more perweful?"
