The next person to walk into the hall was Lord Garth. He strutted into the room as the guards held the door open for him. Lady Sabrina was up on her feet as soon as she saw him.
"Father," she said brightly.
"You're here already, Sabrina."
"Of course, Father." She smiled.
"You could have at least come to fetch me."
"I arrived here too early father, I didn't want to disturb your rest."
"Ugh, your insistence on me resting is a pain."
He stopped walking and took the seat beside Sabrina.
"Lord Garth," Erick said without moving.
"Erick," Lord Garth returned and then his eyes flickered to Mauve. His gaze didn't hold, he looked away immediately.
Mauve adjusted in her sit and she prayed Jael would walk in any minute now, she made a mental note to always wait for him.
"Sire isn't here yet?" Lord Garth commented to no one in particular.
