Chapter 369: A Bold Seduction
The ambience grew darker as night approached, and the once-bustling mansion turned quieter as time passed.
In the courtyard of the knights’ quarters, Damon, Eli and Luke gathered, engaging themselves in light conversations and enjoying drinks.
Eric, Garin, and Noah were noticeably absent. While the second-in-command knight took the initiative to check on Anna, the third-in-command knight retired to bed early.
As for Noah, the recluse knight, he returned from the plaza but deliberately isolated himself from the company of others. His decision to abstain from joining them for dinner was influenced by his altercation with Eric in the garden earlier that afternoon.
As their discussions waned, the knights noticed the figure of Callis passing by the cloister. The Mederian Princess initially appeared hesitant, but upon spotting the knights, she approached them with a warm smile.
"Good evening. It’s a lovely night for a chat, isn’t it?" she greeted them.
"Good evening, Mrs Amares. Is there anything we can assist you with?" Luke inquired.
"Well... yes! I was wondering if you could show me Rafe’s room," she requested.
"Ah... Mr Amares’s room is at the end of this path, the white door. It’s the only one with that colour. You can’t miss it," Eli explained, pointing in the indicated direction.
Callis’s gaze followed his gesture.
Damon, curious, interjected, "Have you never been to his room before?"
