Promise Me (Ch.209)

Neveah peered out of her quarters to find Menarx still stood right there even if she had asked him to leave, somehow she already knew she would find him there.

Neveah cleared her throat slightly as she stepped out, drawing Menarx's attention.

Menarx spun around immediately, his eyes settling on Neveah. They trailed from her face down to her clothing, Neveah was clad in a night dress she had just changed into after washing up.

Menarx's eyes reflected hurt, it was just for a moment before it flitted away and was replaced by understanding.

"I will escort you out of Dragon Keep... where would you want to go?" Menarx asked Neveah with a small smile on his lips.

Menarx's understanding and acceptance was truly rare, Neveah could not help returning his smile.
