"Why don't we play a game?" asked Ishtar with a single finger raised.
Both Seraphina and Maria quickly had a scowl etched on their features. Regardless of her status, Ishtar was still a noble.
If she was choosing to play a game before making any type of decision, then it was surely because she wanted to extort Dorian.
Seraphina placed one hand on the couch, her eyes shifting to Dorian with worry. "My lord, please be careful. It's never a good thing when nobles suggest something like this."
Dorian still kept his gaze on Ishtar, who was rather surprised to see Seraphina speaking up the way she did. Most people working under a noble often try to act their best, on the off chance the higher noble observing them would like them enough to snatch them from their employer.
However, it doesn't seem as though Seraphina wanted to do that. In fact, Ishtar was certain Seraphina and Maria couldn't care less about the Viscount's status.
A smile graced Ishtar's lips.
