It took hours for the party to travel to the Church and back. And considering the sermon took place in the evening, naturally- it was midnight.
Top floor of the Jolly Elixer- the tavern which housed the base of the Blue Rose Syndicate.
Adrian was sitting at the edge of the only bed of the room. The brown haired Elise was standing just ahead of him- her black eyes fixed on the wooden floor, fists clenched and upper teeth biting her lower lip.
Irene, as per her tutor's order, was sitting on the single sofa that faced the bed.
Adrian turned to Irene. "You wanted to know how babies are made, right?" He smirked. "I will show you today."
Irene nodded.
He turned back to Elise. "Go on, take off your clothes."
Elise reluctantly untied the strings that held the chest of her dress together, her eyes still looking at the ground. Once it was over, she pushed the shoulders of her dress off. The dress slid to the ground.
