~Nyla's POV~
“Welcome home Dee.”
Darius gently lifts her hands off his waist. “Thank you, Selene.”
He turns, gesturing towards me. “Nyla, meet Selene, my friend.”
“Selene…”
Selene cuts in before Darius can say anything else. “Friend…?” She scoffs.
She stretches out her hand. “Hi, Nyla. I’m Selene, Darius’ childhood best friend.”
I place my hand in hers. “Hi, Selene.”
“Now that the introductions are done, I need him for a second.” She tugs him gently by the hand, and tries to pull him forward.
He pulls his hands free from hers. “I still have to show her to her room.”
“But that's what the servants are for.” she says, folding her arms across her chest.
Darius exhales. “Then I will be her servant for today, Selene.”
Her eyes widen and her hands hover in the air. “But…”
“Selene!”
