***Sasha******Inside Kael’s Mansion ****** Still midnight ***I walked ahead of Vera as I led her into the mansion.“You okay?” I asked, glancing over my shoulder.She gave me a tight-lipped smile, hugging her arms to her chest. “Yeah. Just... tired. It’s been a long night.”I didn’t respond. I just kept walking until we reached the guest wing. I stopped in front of one of the spare bedrooms, the one that looked out over my garden in the mansion.“You can stay in here,” I said, pushing the door open.Vera stepped inside slowly, eyes scanning everything , the furniture, the soft bed, the candles and every other thing. She walked to the window and touched the curtain like it was a piece gotten from gold, it was quite funny. “This is beautiful,” she whispered.I leaned against the doorframe. “It’s peaceful. You’ll be safe here.”“Thank you,” she said, turning toward me with wide eyes. “Really. I didn’t know where else to go.”Before I could answer, footsteps echoed behind me.Kiera ap
