She was overwhelmed by the proximity. "The g-guards?" She stuttered. "You were talking about the guards?" She said clearly after clearing her throat.
He nodded. "I was." He said before standing up straight and holding his hand out to her. She took it, letting her lead them.
"Your guards never leave your side, adaline. It does not matter if you are at home or if you are at work or with me to the very other side of the country." He explained. "They willingly follow you everywhere."
How nice of them, she thought somewhat better. Are they going to follow me to the washroom too?
"Only the female will. The rest will stand outside the door and the premises." Her head snapped to Xavier who smiled, "Did not realise you said that out loud, huh?"
She shook her head. She had not. " So they are here?"
He nodded.
