Loriel helped Elise to get to her bathroom and left her there. She said she could handle it on her own. So, he closed the door and waited in her bedroom while she soaked in her bath and tried to calm her mind.
The man sat on her bed and cast his glance around him. This guestroom looked almost exactly like it was before Elise moved in here. She didn't redecorate or add anything personal to make it look like hers.
Did she still consider herself as a guest and didn't want to take ownership of this room? This thought ached Loriel's heart. He wanted her to enjoy life and get the best of everything.
However, she didn't even make her bedroom become more comfortable according to her preferences. She kept it as is.
Loriel remembered how Elise redecorated her chamber in the palace, in their past life, to suit his taste because she wanted him to spend more time in her chamber.
