Nibeia's tea party
When she mentioned the invitation, the usually loving voice of the duke was different. This time, it was somewhat frustrating.
"Why would you wish to go when I'm rather busy now?"
When he asked, he was eying Seraphina in search of a proper answer.
Seraphina offered him a reassuring smile. "You're quite busy nowadays, so I shouldn't get in the way,"
she replied, her tone was light, she was hoping to ease his mind.
But Raven was not so easily placated. "Just being around you grants me enough strength,"
"You're not looking at those documents, though," she had pointed out, to the untouched pile of papers on his desk.
"It's okay to look over them at night," he countered, his tone was rather confident as if it were the most reasonable thing in the world.
"You should sleep at night," she sighed and advised him to rest, he was her husband in the end. It's also her responsibility to take care of him.
