"Because I am your mother now!"
"......" the simple reply left him stunned.
"I am caring for you, but I can be stern and cold if you keep testing my nerves! Do you want me to do that?" he shook his head unconsciously and she chuckled, "that is better than. Now you must try their pies and scones. They are to die for!"
When Diana returned from the powder room, Rowan was having the pie with a smile on his face while Ana was chatting happily. They looked much more harmonious than before, which surprised her but at the same time relieved her.
"Mother, you are here. I have ordered your favorite rugelach."
Diana nodded and then turned her gaze back to Rowan whose eyes were not frosty anymore. "Did you like your scones?"
"Yes, mother suggested. They are tasty." she smiled as she nodded her head again and again.
"We should be leaving now, young lord!" the knight bowed his head and looked at him with worry when Rowan nodded his head. After ending their meal, he left with his knights.
