"Your grace, his grace has returned." Eve frowned as she looked at the sky. It had only been a day but he was back already? Even if he gave them an easy death. It was too early for his return.
She stood up and went to receive him at the door. His hand was covered with blood but not enough for a death. She smiled at him but his face looked pained.
"Damien."
"Where is my grandfather?" she paused hearing the emergency in his voice. But she ignored the dreading thoughts in her heart and wrapped her arms around his.
"Come, i will take you to him." he softly nodded and she guided him to the room she had assigned to his grandfather. He paused at the door.
"I want to meet him alone?" she frowned but when she noticed the betrayal in his eyes, she did not force him.
Yet, it pained her when he took his hand away and walked in.
