"I want you to stay with me. Should I consider you my friend in this mission?" Regina asked
Lara took a moment to think. The sound of the rain and the fade rustling outside in the balcony due to it, maintained a bit of serenity in the room.
Regina was looking forward to an answer. Lara took a deep breath and said, "Since I am not sabotaging this mission, I will have to perform my tasks you majesty." She said with an uncomfortable expression .
But Regina knew there was something more to it and thus Lara said, "But I will make sure there will never be fatal attacks from me. I will try maintaining as much transparency as I can." Lara said.
Regina finally took a clear breath and smiled.
"Of course you will. You are diligent. You are Lark after all." Regina said as she said and looked at down.
And immediately there was a dagger around her neck.
"Damn. You move fast Lark." Regina said with a cunning and defeated smile.
