Capítulo 28: Popular phrases

After a deep tree-gazing session that almost made Mallory look like one of the statues in the garden, Mallory returned back to the manor's grand entrance with Wallace. There, they found Hadeon and Lady Rose engaged in what appeared to be a deep conversation.

Hadeon's attention shifted from Lady Rose to Mallory, his gaze piercing as he asked, "Enjoyed your little exploration?" and he caught her guarded expression. His golden eyes then fell on the vampiress' servant, his eyes narrowing in suspicion. 

"It was merely a guided tour of the manor, Lord Hadeon," Wallace explained quickly, and he came to stand beside his ladyship.

Mallory gave a nod and then turned to the vampiress, "You have a beautiful garden, Lady Rose." Hadeon could learn a thing or two about actual gardening, she thought to herself. 

Lady Rose's eyes sparkled with amusement as she replied, "I'm delighted to hear it. Perhaps Hades can bring you here more often."
