"Come in ten minutes," he said to the servants. They bowed and nodded before walking out the door.
Mauve frowned at the very specific order. She tried not to give it much thought but she was surprised at the length Jael was going to make sure she didn't get a whiff of whatever it was.
She sat on the bed brooding. She was a bit annoyed that she wouldn't be able to see anything from here. The least she deserved was a show, after everything she had been through.
Mauve smacked her cheeks at her train of thought. The stress must be getting to her.
She heard a soft sound of water splash as Jael got into the tub. She squinted her eyes trying to see but to no avail.
She had no choice but to rely on her ears. She heard him start to scrub his body and it sounded vicious.
Mauve panicked for a few seconds. Did he fall on horse crap? She wouldn't have minded though but Jael seemed very adamant.
