Bab 339: 52.X Interlude: Mathilde II

This day had been a disaster.

"We have to find them!"

Mathilde watched in tentative silence as her twin hurriedly packed their bags, her own muted emotions swirling in ways she never thought would happen for anything beyond her own twin. The former Primzahl supposed that Anna would take poorly to Si-Rouge's kidnapping. Anna had confided in her that she had become more than smitten to their young leader, something that Mathilde herself had begun to feel as well. It was to be expected seeing as they've cared and... made love to the young man for over a year now, but she never expected their reactions to be this... extreme.

"Calm down, Anna. She's in very capable hands," Mathilde assuaged, her own emotions threatening to boil despite her demeanor. "I am sure that he is fine."
