"Are you alright, Almira?" Kira whispered to me. I had breathed out too hard, it was obvious I was weary.
"I'm fine." I said lowly, walking forward. "Let's go."
I could see the two guards join Kira at my back as we went back to my chamber. I only knew one of them as Sylvester, the other I knew not his name.
Probably I hadn't cared enough to ask.
"What are you called?" I questioned him the moment we reached my door.
I felt they would be with me for quite some while, I had to know them better to feel comfortable with their presence.
"Mack, my lady." He bowed.
I nodded silently and went into my room. Kira followed after me, even watching me collapse on the bed.
"Those mistresses, you must be riled at them. They were so irksome." I could hear the distaste in her voice. I smiled half-heartedly.
"I have to avoid them from now on."
"Especially Mallory, she acts like you had done her great wrong in her past life."
Although I was much upset but her words made me chuckle.
