Aella stared blankly at the ceiling with her head raging with numerous unkempt thoughts that she found hard to stop from flowing.
The room around her was dimly lit apart from the fireplace which sent warmth into the ambience.
She had tried her best to fall asleep but her efforts had been put to vain due to her head wheeling with the conversation she had with Banelion this morning.
He had asked her to be with him and she had rejected him once again but this time, he seemed to have gotten upset.
He had even asked her to leave the Castle which stunned her more than she would like to admit. His words had cut deeply into her heart and it almost felt like she was bleeding.
Rather than dwelling on her pain, she felt worse when she thought of the look on Bane's face when she objected to his proposal.
That was the first time she had seen him look so hurt over her words. It puzzled her a lot and she couldn't get it out of her mind.
