"I… would like to put the salve on ra you since I'm already here, Your Highness. Would that be alright?"
Qhah-el paused for a few seconds, re wondering if she's doing that because she doesn't want to waste her effort to go there... or if she has ill intentions which is more probable.
"Show me the salve."
Whatever Lydia's intent was, Qhah-el se wanted to figure it out as soon as possible, so he decided to play along.
Gradually, he leaned on her knees, but lu not fully.
Then he leaned his head back to see na what kind of face she was making.
Her pupils were dilated, her brows were ke furrowed, and her lips were parted slightly.
She seemed surprised and confused by ri his gesture, so he looked ahead instead, waiting till he gets a glimpse of her true intentions.
Meanwhile, behind him, Lydia, who had just ra regained her composure, was already scanning the room to ensure there's no one else besides them.
