Chương 105: Showing His Age

The gardens weren't in full bloom, but Leonor thought it was nice seeing colorful buds on top of each bush and stalk. Each plant was specifically chosen for blooming early and having a long life so the garden would remain full through the summer heat. 

While Leonor walked through the hallway, stopped at each window to peer into the courtyard garden she had grown to love and miss when everything was buried in snow. As she passed by the end of the hall, she glanced at the room Stephano occupied and she wondered when he would join them for dinner.

She was getting hungry so she decided to go into the dining hall and see the whereabouts of her husband as well. 

The dinner that evening wasn't anything too fancy or over the top. She hadn't expected the king to show up. Even if he wasn't someone with a large appetite, it would be good to put their best foot forward for him.
