There were fresh clothes and material to dry off with waiting outside the room for us when we left the beautiful facsimile of a starry sky.
We hadn’t slept together - I was too distracted by what Cauis had told me to focus on how his body felt pressed against mine in the water.
He didn’t seem to be particularly frustrated by that, and I was relieved when he told me he wanted to get something to eat before it got too late.
I was still starving, and I was more than happy to go and eat something with him in the large dining room with the painting of the wolf on the back wall.
It was only us, this time.
I didn’t know if that was because Lydia wasn’t the only one he had sent away, or if it was because he had asked for us to be left in peace, but I was glad about it and I enjoyed the food
