Varya gave a heavy sigh and had to resist the urge to slump to the floor the second she walked into her front door.
Regardless of how much fun she had that evening, there was still a lot of weight on her shoulders and it exhausted her.
To her surprise, her son didn't run into her arms and she saw that the lights in her quarters were dimmed. She hadn't asked Solana to stay late knowing that Ebari was there and he had offered to spend time with her son.
As she made it further into her quarters and past her kitchen, she saw Ebari sitting on the couch. On the wooden coffee table between the couches was a dark bottle of some kind of dessert wine and shortcake with the fruit she was supposed to eat with the doctors.
