"Can we continue this another time?" Louis suddenly asked.
"No, it's usually hard to get you alone these days and you still haven't explained…"
The rest of her words drowned out as the door was thrown open and Jael strutted into the library. The space was huge but somehow he dominated it and had her full attention the instant he walked in.
"Jael," she called, already standing to her feet. "What are you doing here?"
He stared down Louis before his eyes came to rest on her. She could tell immediately that he knew something was up.
"Danag came to show me the plans and he informed me you were here. Since I am practically done with my work, I decided to drop in and say hi, it looks like I might have picked the wrong time."
"Actually no," Louis said. "You picked the perfect time. I shall take my leave then."
"Louis," Mauve called and he simply smiled at her before making his way to the door and walking out of it.
