"Okay." Wendy made sure to keep holding Arabella close. "Why did they take you?"

"A child in the ballroom nicking purses is going to end up attracting attention."

"As long as you're sure, I guess..."

Nicolae fell asleep, snoring softly, his head on the table.

When the sound of Nicolae's cups shattering resounded through out the hall, Riva jumped in fear. To her, shattering glass was a particularly terrifying sound. So sharp, so shill, so chaotic, and so... memory filled. Accidentally broken vials, her mother's anger... Times she'd buried deep.

Her face red with fury, Riva stared at the creator of the noise. A servant, bah! For a moment, she toyed with the idea of marching over and demanding for his presence in her dungeon, but then realized that was probably incredibly harsh. She desperately needed to get out of here... The tension was palpable, the noises a whirlwind. And more than that, getting splattered, then rejected by the general had been embarrassing. The possibility of a damaged reputation made her skin crawl; if she lost the protection their fear allowed her... Visions of being torn apart by an angry crowd aroused her anxiety and her fingers trembled. If day came... she would have no chance of surviving it. 

When I die, I will die on my own terms, she told herself. My strength lies beneath the surface.

"Not if they don't get caught." Wendy cracked a grin.

Ara grinned back. "Too bad I did. I got quite a haul."

"But then they took it all away, I'm assuming?"

"Yeah."

"Nice work anyways. You'll get better at it." Wendy ruffled Ara's hair.

Ara smiled up at Wendy. "Like you?"

"If you want." Wendy grinned. "But if you want to be like me, then you're going to have to grow out of being so ticklish." She proceeded to poke Ara in the side.

Ara giggled. "Stop it!" she laughed.

Wendy smiled and stopped jabbing her. "Alright. C'mere." Wendy pulled her into a big, cuddly hug. Ara was small enough to fit into her arms like... well, a child.

Ara grinned and snuggled into Wendy's arms.

Alienor smiled gently and sat a little farther back in her chair.

Have you ever worn a corset? You can't sit anywhere but the edge of your chair and there is no way you're getting comfortable.

Well, no I've never worn one myself, but corsets were originally made as an undergarment, they were supposed to be comfortable. They weren't supposed to be tight laced and they were often meticulously tailored for the wearer. I would assume Eleanor, as a princess, soon to be queen, would have a very well designed corset. I've done a TON of research on corsets. :P

Really? Hmm... 'cause I've worn one and it was... yeah. But I guess you're the expert! But there was nothing really there that I've got to change. :)

"You tired?" Wendy asked, running her fingers through Ara's hair.

"No," she said through a yawn.

“You just go to sleep, okay?” Wendy said. “I’ll take care of it from here.”

Ara yawned again. "O-okay."

Wendy smiled and stroked Arabella's hair until she fell asleep.

As Caden descended the stairs once more, but with the document in hand, he sneered as he saw the two prisoners on the floor. "You're lucky that the King is far more kind than I am, traitor."

"Shhh." Wendy held a finger to her lips, still stroking Ara's hair. "Don't wake her up."

Caden scoffed, not bothering to change his volume. "You have your guarantee, traitor. So long as you cause no trouble, and do as I say, your friend will be fine."
