Reappearing somewhere else that was not Eaghslia's palace was something that she was hoping for and seeing an unfamiliar environment brought her relief.
She had forgotten that she was in Richard's arms and when she got back to her sences, she freed herself from his hold and stood up. Her body was still frail; as if it would fall on the floor at any moment yet she managed to balance herself.
"What is this place?" She asked while looking around. There were no pictures on the walls but just by the look, she could tell that the house had been well taken care of.
"My house." He answered casually and seeing doubt written on her face, he went on.
"Did you think that I used to live in a cave before coming to the palace?"
His rhetorical question went unanswered by Lilith who chose to swallow her remarks. She could barely walk but she still insisted that she could and Richard took pleasure of having to look at her as she staggered closely behind him.
