It was noon the next day when I was jolted awake and felt the power of the magic barrier rise. I sensed the presence of Lenora, and Advisor Maxwell accompanied her as they made their way inside the mountain. She had come faster than I expected, and I felt happy that she did not hesitate.
"We have guests "Sybill whispered.
"Mmmmh" I murmured and pressed a kiss on her temple. "It's Advisor Maxwell and Duchess Lenora. They are members of the Coven council governance."
"We better get up and welcome them," She murmured.
"Stay in bed, rest some more, and join us later. "I informed her and got out of bed and took a shower. After I dressed up, I left one of my royal robes for Sybill, even though I knew it would sweep the floor given our height difference.
By the time I got to the living room, Maxwell was pacing up and down while Lenora sat on the couch looking as majestic as ever. When they spotted me, Maxwell stopped shooting while Lenora stood up.
