"And remember, you must eat my dishes. My butler will deliver them to you every morning and night, daily."
"Thanks," Rowan said, accepting the luggage she handed over. "Have you found a way to contact your family?"
"Yes, just yesterday," she replied. "I sent someone to pass the message. The carriage should arrive any moment."
They waited briefly, and soon a carriage came forward. Elian waved, then entered gracefully. Rowan was about to hand her luggage in, but she stepped out, kissed his forehead and cheek, and bowed slightly.
"Please take care of yourself," she whispered. Then she collected her luggage and entered the carriage, which drove off. Rowan waved until it disappeared from sight.
"Well I'll miss her," he murmured. "Always lively and her meals are amazing. I shouldn't trouble her, and that's that."
