Esme's POV
Ritch brought me home after I slept off in Eidrin's bed again. There was something about that bed. Sylin and Lilin would also agree.
Like Ruby, Uncle had allowed Ritch to stay around the house. He must not have realised that Elon and Elle had been here before.
I stretched my limbs and fell out of bed. The house was empty. Ritch might've joined Uncle to send the orders. Another free day for me.
I saw the package Levine had sent, opened. Did Uncle finally open it when I was away? There was nothing extra, so he only wanted Levine to know.
"Ooh, new letter." I grabbed it and used my butt to move the opened package from the table. My eyes quickly went through the contents.
'Iris,
Hope you are well. I am glad you were safe from the rogues' attack. I don't really understand what you mean by a package. I never sent one. Let's talk.'
