"Do you like this, my lady?" one of the maids asked Aella as she showed her the hairpin.
Aella smiled with a small nod. She was feeling a bit uncomfortable with all the attention given to her but there was nothing she could say to stop it.
She had slept off on the bed with Bane only to be woken by their handmaids who urged them that they needed to get ready for dinner. Bane was asked to leave the room so he could be tended to by another maid.
The maids wanted to bath her but she had stopped them, saying she could do it herself. As soon as she was out of the tub, they had taken control.
In a swift and professional manner, they applied lotion all over her skin while another maid arranged her dress and accessories. After that, she was forced into a very tight corset which she had take in slow deep breaths so she wouldn't die from suffocation.
