Chapter 381: Settling the past (2)
"I’ve been waiting for you to speak up and tell me about the knight you spoke with. What reason would you have to speak to one of his people?" Travis asked, staring at Siena sitting with a book in her hands. "I’m starting to think that you take me for a fool."
"He was there during my trip. He is quite close to Rafael so I thought to ask him about what Rafael would be wearing to the party. As the future lady of a manor full of knights, I should get to know his knights-"
"What for? Are you planning to become a knight? Why would you waste your time speaking with people beneath you? I have plenty of guards around my home and you don’t see me speaking with them," said Travis.
’They wouldn’t want to speak with you because you’ve been killing them,’ Siena thought.
Travis was going through guards and servants quickly because of what he was doing at night. It wasn’t that long ago she heard the butler speak of getting more servants before Travis would become upset even though he was the reason they were so short on servants.
"Rafael is close to his knights. I’ve seen him treat them like family. He would enjoy that I speak to them. The knights are not like servants," Siena answered.
"How touching of you to want to be like him. Now, tell me what you spoke to the knight about. I am not a fool, Siena. There has to be a reason you put some distance between you two and the guards I gave you. What is it?" Travis questioned, swirling around the wine in the glass he was holding.
He waited for her answer and as he thought of what she might have spoken about, a thought that ruined his night crossed his mind.
"Are you fucking him?" Travis asked, his voice loud enough to be heard outside the dining room.
