The line of worry smoothed out across her brow and as she watched the Lady spread nestled back into the booth to slouch a little. Not too much, posture for a dancer was everything.
Her few ventures outside the estate had ill prepared her for the nuances and bloody plots of politics, this was a circle she had so far been sheltered from. Saffy understood her position was a poor one, but believing it best to follow Kazcor’s instruction the dancer did as told, taking the paper from the edges to draw in shielding them further. Her eye caught a familiar shoe as her eyes glanced around their secluded nook looking out, but only sought to chance a glance to confirm their owner when Kaz casually dropped the ’he’.
She ducked her head down behind the paper rather abruptly once catching his eye. Body sliding a little under the table in an effort to shrink though knew it would be impossible to shake him. The paper fell against her face with a groan.
Saffy chewed her lip, irritated by the fact her heartbeat had elevated upon their eyes briefly meeting. Sitting up, the young woman accepted the whisky without much hesitation.

I’m afraid fruit wouldn’t get rid of him. Not when his mission is sitting with you.

Do you think he knows how to crack a smile, or his face permanently like that?A foolish question, yet it was unnerving, cold… and lonely, she realised.
