(Damien)
I was watching Amelia throughout the meeting because I knew that she could get overwhelmed easily, and I wanted to be there for her.
The minute she left, I tried to follow her but was stopped by King Alastair who wanted to talk to me about the staff.
I was a bit pissed off because he was holding up my time and when I was finally free, I found Amelia talking to this wizard in private.
It was clear that he was infatuated with her, and I wasn't going to allow anyone to get in the way of what we had.
After the wizard left, Amelia and I went to my room, and I closed the door behind us a little harder than I intended.
Amelia turned to face me, crossing her arms over her chest, a gesture that was both defensive and challenging.
"What was that about, Damien?" she asked her voice calm but with an edge that cut through the tension.
I took a step closer, unable to keep the frustration out of my voice.
