"You've been standing there since hours ago."
Aries stopped several steps from the man standing in the vast expanse of the queen's courtyard. Her eyes studied his back, sighing as he didn't move a muscle.
"If being a statue is what you aspired to be, you could've told me," she said as she advanced in his direction, stopping beside him. "For how long will you stare in that direction?"
Fabian kept his eyes in the same direction that he had been staring at for hours. "You ordered people to step into that mansion."
"I did. It's only courteous to welcome them with a proper lodging."
"Lady Tilly will not appreciate that, my queen." Fabian slowly faced her, his usual smile was nowhere in sight. "Allow me to prepare their home for them."
Aries scanned his face before she shrugged. "If that will make you happy. You know I don't want to disappoint you."
