“Salena. My name is Salena,” Salena introduced herself in a voice that was slightly more audible than a whisper.

“Mila must be happy to have you two with her. It can get lonely for honorable maidens living in the Secret Chambers, or so I’ve heard. Mila will be busy with her lessons and I’m sure that many things will be expected of her. Dealing with my brother and his selfish demands isn’t going to be easy either. I guess I’m relieved that Mila will have the support from both of you,” Darius said warmly.

“We will try our best, Your Highness,” Jessie said with enthusiasm.

“She doesn’t talk much, does she?” Darius asked as he turned his attention to Salena again.

“I apologize for her. Salena isn’t very talkative, I’m afraid…” Jessie quickly apologized while Salena only stared back at the prince.

“Jessie, can you relay my message to Madame Sand?” Darius asked.

“Of course, Your Highness,” Jessie replied instantly.

“Please tell her that I send my regards,” he instructed.

“Is that…all?”
