Chapter 724. Their Problem
Mauve stared across from Louis as she sat in the library. Jael was currently busy with Kieran and had left her to her own devices. She didn’t know what they were discussing, but Mauve figured it had something to do with the Palers.
This was still a major problem vampires experienced, and Jael was deeply worried about it. Who knew when the Palers would attack again? The last two attacks had been terrible, with one ending in many casualties. She knew Jael would like to come up with a better solution before the Palers struck again.
Unfortunately, there was nothing she could do to help in this instance. All she could do was try to be as supportive as possible. Not to mention that she had problems of her own. She had to fix a time with Danag. She had so much to do and, at the same time, be more active in the affairs of the castle. Mauve didn’t like any of this, but she also found that she was excited. A child was coming along—she had to be prepared in every sense.
"No," Louis replied.
"Don’t worry, I am not here to force you to teach me more spells."
"So you admit you do force me?" Louis said.
"What? No, I don’t. You’re just a little stubborn. That aside, did something happen?" she asked. "You’ve seemed off for the past couple of days."
"Anyone would be off with the incidents that have occurred in the past couple of days. It ended well, but that doesn’t make it less stressful," Louis stated.
Mauve didn’t buy his explanation. However, she couldn’t push and had simply sought him out for a different matter. "Yeah," she replied absentmindedly. "You’re right."
Louis frowned at her response. "Is something wrong?"
"No, just a little too rested," she chuckled. "I told Lady Marceline."
