#Chapter59

Together they dine, Keiran and lady Stef. She is eating small portions, playing with her food and hair, which irritates him.

/"So, do you like it here?/", she tries to start a conversation.

/"Excuse me?/".

/"I said, do you like it here in the capital?/".

/"That’s a stupid question. I thought you are trying to win me over/", he says with his intimidating look. She giggles, trying to ignore his comment.

/"Well, we have to start a conversation somewhere, don’t you think?/". A servant comes, pouring more wine to Keiran’s cup. As he goes for Stef’s, she raises her hand to prevent him from filling hers.

/"You don’t drink?/".

/"It doesn’t do good to a woman/", she answers.

/"I like a woman who can hold her alcohol/", he strikes once more. She raises her eyebrow, annoyed by his comment. But she won’t give up.

/"So, do I like it here? No. The wilds are better/".

/"Well, I can see why/".
