ESTEFAN'S POV
The next day, I made sure to increase the number of attendants walking around the palace halls and also stopped Rhea from spending the whole day in her room.
When we went down for breakfast, Rhea almost ran back to her room when she noticed the number of attendants serving us. They used to be three but I increased it to six, making it more than the usual number she was comfortable with.
"Relax, I'm right here." I held her from behind. "Just imagine it's the usual number of people that used to be here."
She did the breathing exercise before nodding. I took her hand and she tightened her hold as we walked into the dining room. We are our breakfast and everyone else acts like nothing changed in the setting.
Esteban engaged Rhea in some interesting conversations which made her easily take her mind off what was going on. She finished her breakfast without freaking out which was a sign of improvement.
