Knock Knock—!
The pounding on the door came again. This time it was lower, as though the person behind the door was afraid to offend those inside the room.
Eliron stood up. "Pardon me…"
He walked towards the door and opened it, allowing two maids into the room.
The first one was holding a tray with a freshly brewed cup of coffee atop it, while the second woman had a black box in her hand.
"Forgive me baron, I have a long day ahead of me so I requested a cup of coffee. I hope it doesn't cause any offense?"
The baron sighed. "Goodness, the timing of the delivery leaves little to be desired. But there is no issue."
Cassie smiled. "You really know how to keep people on edge don't you?" She asked, a small smirk on her face.
Eliron shrugged. "It's just a cup of coffee, it's nothing that serious." He replied, mirroring her smile.
