Zayne left Brian and Soren alone as Rose was quick to return for her rice. He poured himself a small portion of the stew and joined her to walk back inside. "There is a table here for you to use. You do not need to take your food to your room."
Rose stopped on the first step. She had always eaten in her room since Graham had given her one for herself. It was quiet in her room and it helped her to avoid the women. She had forgotten that there wasn't anyone here so she could eat elsewhere.
"Are you eating there?" Rose questioned.
"I am. If that will make you uncomfortable then I will eat somewhere else," Zayne replied.
"No! How could I have you eat elsewhere when this is your home? But is it alright for us to sit together? You are my employer and I am your servant. I have never heard of employers sitting with their servants. I can eat in the kitchen," Rose proposed as it sounded more normal.
