Chapter 222

"Don't do linger on what he said..." Knight Dior said. I turned to him, not too enthused about seeing him. "I'm not..." I lied, wishing he'd leave. He sighed. "Knight Lius is relieving me. I'm about to be off watch..." He said, sounding disappointed, "But I just want to apologize your grace. My advances towards you are distasteful and out of line. They won't happen again..." He left, Knight Lius entering. Knight Lius was the tall silent type, bright red hair and very pale skin. He never spoke to me without me speaking first. He was a very different breed of person compared to raw and passionate Dior. Lius was more reined in and controlled. Though it was relieving to not have to worry about Dior's high energy, Lius was just vapid! He was not engaging at all. I'd relish in this though as I got ready for bed. Lius followed, having to monitor my every move for my personal safety. Sleep was rather restless and was this way for the next few days. The stress was really starting to get to me.
