Bab 248: Pressure

Jade happily watched Lucius getting ready for his conversation with Kalliope. For some reason, the room meant for her and Desmond was not ready yet, so they stayed with Lucius in his until someone told them it was available.

Her idiot brother attempted to suggest they stay with Kalliope for a bit, but using her profound female intuition, she was able to convince Desmond that it was not a good idea. Eventually he relented, but it did take some convincing.

Lucius seemed to be fumbling around clumsily with his clothes in the mirror, so she laughed and stepped in front of him. "Pardon me, I can help." She said with a smile.

She was well-versed in assisting Desmond in preparing for formal parties and other matters, so she was able to use those skills for the simple task of preparing Lucius for his intimate conversation.
