บท 63: His muse

When the morning arrived, Lilith had hoped that Richard would not be there but when she got to the dining room, she was fairly surprised upon seeing a visitor .

The lady was a seat away from Richard and they seemed to be talking about something but when they fell her presence, they turned their focus on her. Her eyes that were on Richard for a fleeting moment turned to look at his guest who looked at her with disdain. Though it was not that obvious as it was replaced by a forceful smile, she could tell that the lady did not like her.

The lady was decked in a red gown that somehow matched with the colour of her hair and lips. Their gazes on her made her want to turn around and go back to her room but she managed to make her way onto the table.

Taking a seat next to Richard, she wished them a good morning and her focus turned on the maids who were busy serving breakfast.
