~Present Day
"Veah!" Xenon called from somewhere down the hall.
Neveah did not pay him any heed, she just kept walking till she exited the castle.
Neveah was just about mounting her horse when Xenon caught up with her, taking hold of her hand before she could climb astride her horse.
"Hey...hey, I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." Xenon apologized earnestly, tugging Neveah's arm gently so she turned to face him.
"Lord Xenon, I am currently indisposed. If you would not mind, I have duties to attend to." Neveah said in a blank monotone.
The cold chill in Neveah's tone astonished Xenon and terrified him at the same time.
"Veah...do not be like that with me. I have not seen you in a year... give me a minute at least." Xenon reasoned.
Neveah was quiet for a moment, thinking over it before she conceded.
She passed the reins of her horse over to Caleb who had brought the horse over and then she lead the way through the castle grounds.
