Lumina sat inside frustrated but wasn't comfortable as to why Ashwn suddenly asked her to go inside.
She should also be there taking whatever punishment is set to be given to her husband but nope she couldn't because Stella insisted.
"Please, my lady," Stella whispered again, tugging at her sleeve. "Lord Ashen said you must stay inside. If you disobey…"
"I will not," Lumina interrupted, almost in tears.
Stella's grip trembled. "It's dangerous out there. His command had been heard by everyone and we know he wouldn't like it if we disobeyed it."
Before she could finish, heavy footsteps echoed in the corridor. This made Lumina freeze, "Open the door," she demanded softly.
Stella shook her head, near tears. "I cannot. If something happens…"
But Lumina moved forward, almost pulling herself free. "He will be punished because of me. I cannot stay caged while he…"
Just as she pulled the door open despite Stella's pleas, Aria moved swiftly, toward them.
