Abel was doing his routine duties for the day when one of the Queen Mother's servants came and told him to see her so he immediately. Nodding, he put everything down and had a smile on his face as he made his way to the Queen Mother's residence. Even further, that smile grew wider the moment he saw Dani walking in from another direction.
"Dani," he called out to her.
She looked at him and gave him a curt nod. She had a blank expression on her face, something that he had already gotten used to. Still, he was curious about whether or not he could chip away at her defenses. She often had mood swings, and it wasn't easy to read someone like her which only made her more interesting.
He had been visiting her often, intentionally faking various alibis to see her and to bring her food because he felt comfortable around her presence. He wanted to take things slow around her as much as he could, knowing that being too forceful would lead her away from him.
