Roxanne had been working silently in her study when a voice called out from behind, "Am I disturbing you?"
She hummed in surprise before glancing over her shoulder.
"Luke, is it? What are you doing here?" She slowly rose to her feet, her red lips faintly curved as she turned to face him.
Luke shrugged. "I just got my clothes dirty, so I used the chance to come see you."
Roxanne chuckled. "You can always come to meet me. There's no need to make excuses. You are a benefactor, after all."
Roxanne's opinion of the young man had shifted greatly after what he did for them last night. She had wanted to meet him today and thank him properly, but she couldn't because of the celebration held by her mate.
Luke's brows lifted slightly as he asked, "What happened, Lady Roxanne? You don't seem like yourself today."
