Cargan joked again, "Yes, my lord." he answered Celio and stood up.
Together, they went out of the door and down the stairs. He didn't like taking the elevator, even cars.
Of what use would it be when he uses lifts on little chances he gets to walk about? He was so used to staying and sitting in a place for long. It was what being a ruler does to a person.
Heads of the security guards guarding the lobby bowed as he passed by with Celio. Just as he was about to walk out of the door, he smelt it.
The heavenly scent encompassing her. The bitterly savory aroma which lingered around her, it flew to his nostrils, teased and disrespected.
She was behind them. Celio said she left but why was she in the palace still?
Spying on them maybe?
But he had not sensed her before. He only did now so definitely, she wasn't anywhere around him before until now.
He continued to walk with Celio not looking back just to not raise her guard.
