Meanwhile, Katelina observed Ezekiel in the makeshift kitchen. His focus and care in preparing breakfast for her was touching, and she couldn't help but feel a flutter of emotions. The man was persistent, indeed, but also incredibly thoughtful.
Moments later, Ezekiel approached with a tray carrying chicken soup, buttered bread, and freshly brewed coffee. He placed it on the table with a smile. "Good morning, my queen. I hope you enjoy the breakfast."
Katelina looked at the food, then at Ezekiel. "Please, dig in."
"Thank you," she said before she started eating.
"Isn't it a bit uncomfortable to eat with your veil on? Why not remove it?" Ezekiel commented.
