Sneaking In

The guard looked at her greedily and Luis behind her was really about to throw a fireball. How dare this trash eye Miss Althea! 

Who cared if he was a Level 18 or so! 

"You can come in, but just you," the guard said, heckling Luis' feathers even more. 

Althea raised her palm to stop him. "It's okay, Luis, just go around the place to pass time," she told him, giving him a meaningful stare. 

Her words calmed Luis down and he nodded, heading out the gate to the satisfaction of the greedy guard. 

He led her to the servant's quarters at the side of the main house. Here, the live-in guards and other servants stayed, though when they saw him with a woman, many of the servants who were there scuttled away. 

"You can wait here," he said, asking her to sit on a crude sofa at the side. "The Lord has not yet returned from the war, but since they went all out, it shouldn't take long."
