Chapter 17. What Was That Feeling?

Adira’s POV

“I didn’t know.”

“We are not close,” He said nonchalantly, shrugging his shoulders.

I leaned on the counter, wanting to hear more about his brother but his phone rang again. I somberly looked at him and he gave me an apologetic glance before leaving the bathroom, my gaze followed him until the door closed. I washed my face properly and got into the bathroom to take a long shower.

I sighed, feeling so much better after the bath. I slipped my hair into a tight bun and got ready for the day. I didn’t have much to do especially since all the servants did everything including meal preparations. I was laying on my elbows, deep in thought, and didn’t even realize when Luca walked into the room.

“You look awfully bored,” He said, going to the pool table.

“I need a job or I’ll die of boredom.”

“Aren’t you like the queen now? You’ll have duties at the palace. Hosting, visiting the people, etc.,” He pointed out and I nodded.
