Chapter 12 - Little rat

Ciara stared at her for a while before she continued putting on her clothes , once she's done , she sat down on the bed beside her , " you can't come now " she whispered to her

"Why" Lita asked dejectedly

"We have a guest at home and brother warned us to be careful around her , we are still on probabation on who sent and why she was sent but we are sure she is a spy" she answered diligently

" So , we are back to square one where I have to take permission to meet with you" she asked grudgingly.

"You know I will be there for you anytime you need me" she coaxed her

" But , we don't even spend quality time together anymore" she exclaimed .

" okay , we can on a date pick the place and I will be there 5:00pm "she suggested hoping to lighten the mood .

"Aww , that's so sweet of you" she said delighted as she pecked her.

"I will see you then" Ciara and hurried out.

Everyone could be seen seated at the dinner room except for Ciara.

"Where is your sister " Corvus asked.

" She is upstairs , she will be here in a sec " Cora replied as a diligent sister she is. It was then that Ciara walked inside and sat beside her sister.

" Good morning brother" she greeted her brother .

" Good morning Lena" she greeted her too .

Lena nodded at her and continued her meal not yet recovered from the pain she experienced Last night.

"How is your night" corvus asked his sister while looking at Lena .

"Nice and yours " Ciara asked relieved that her brother is unaware of her adventure last night .

" Well my night was splendid until I caught whiff of a sneaky rat "

Lena glanced at him immediately completely stunned that he caught her peeking at them , not knowing how to react to that she bent her head and resumed eating not comfortable at the moment with the new discovery .

" Hmm, brother you didn't ask about me but you just asked after Ciara" Cora whined at her brother making faces .

" I didn't know that hurt your feelings " Corvus asked playing ignorant to get on her nerves .

"Of course it did , or you no longer care about me " she whined again , playing the pity card to get her brothers attention . EU

"Cora you should know that brother cares about you " Ciara tried cutting in which was followed by bickering between the two of them.

Lena was staring at them wondering if that's how dinner is supposed to be , with no table manners and continuous exchange of words not to forget Ciara arrived late!! She could not believe the type of life they are living . Lady would call them wayward if she was here and tell her to avoid them that they are going to be bad influence on her . she sighed not knowing what to make of the situation

" I will get going " Corvus said and stood up and left immediately Cora turned to her and asked her " are you the rat my brother was talking about".
