Red slowly woke up to the feeling of cold water hitting his chest. As his senses came to him, he noticed the room was dark. He tried to move but seddunly felt heavy. Glancing down, Red noticed Trivia sleeping on him. She looked graceful and without problems in the world. He gave a small smile before gently waking her up,

"Trivia?",

She let out a small moan before opening her eyes. As she looked around, still dazed from he sleep, she stretched her arms high and a huge yawn came out. Trivia then splashed some of the water in her face to alert herself. As her eyes scanned the room the only glimpse of light was Red's raveging red eyes as they seemed to glisten in the pure dark room,

"You know, if I didn't know it was you, I'd probably be scared to see two glowing red eyes in a middle of a dark room" she said jokingly,

Red gave a small chuckle and then procedded to stand up. Trivia followed him as they both got out of the bath and went to a nearby corner to get some white and black towels. As Red only covered his waist and crotch with a black one, Trivia covered her chest with a white towel so long it reached down the her thighs, covering her almost entirely. They walked along the wall to another door on the opposite side of the room. Red got it first so he opened it, while Trivia slowly followed him in holding on to his left hand. As the door started to open, a bright flash of light beamed through the gap, lighting them both and the room along. Red swung it wide open, revealing another room. Their bedroom. It was magnificent. The walls were a mixture of gold, white and red colours. The floor was sand coloured with a similar texture. There was a bed right in the middle. It was huge. Enough for ten people to easily fit. The covers were so neatly placed not a single wrinkle could be seen, the pillows looked puffed and soft and the wodden bed framing was polished and without a scratch. Behind it was a big varanda, with very thin white curtains moving from the wind coming in. On the left side of the room was mostly a man's decoration setting. Armour pieces, swords, spears and shields, one huge mirror in the middle of the wall, couple of wardrobes beside it on either side and the front entrance to the room. On the right side of the room however, was clean and elegent. There were multiple mirrors dotted around along with jewelery and clothing hanged to the wall itself, and along with it, another door. The room was like a contrast of black and white, much like Red and Trivia. As they walked in they shut the door behind them. Red dropped the towel as he walked towards the wardrobe to the left side of the mirror. Trivia went and sat on the bed. She took the towel off and started drying her hair with it,

"It's almost dusk, shall we have them prepare food for your guests?",

"Yeah, make sure the maids ask them what they would prefer" Red answered back from within the wardrobe,

As he looked for something to wear, Trivia suddenly surprised him by hugging him from behind. She had her arms around his stomach and her head rested on his upper back,

"But before any of that..." Trivia said softly "... I have been away from you too long",

Red straightened himself and slowly turned around. As he looked down, Trivia's eyes shined like the purest of gold. Her lips semmed to glisten a soft rosy colour and her skin looked alit softer than usual,

"Well then, should we indulge with ourselves before we meet our guests?" Red asked running his fingers through her hair,

Suddenly a loud knock was heard coming from the main door. Red and Trivia kept staring at each other before closing their eyes and giving a loud sigh. Red quickly turned back to the wardrobe and grabbed some white pants. As he slid them on, Trivia walked over to the bed and picked up her towel, covering herself once again,

"Come in" Red said loudly,

A man popped through the door. Head held down. It was the same man that spoke to Trivia earlier in the hall,

"Yulius, it's been a while hasn't it?",

"Indeed Your Highness, I am pleased I'm able to make your acquaintance once more" the man replied to Red,

"So, what is the reason for your visit?",

"I'm unsure whether thy lady has said a word but I have news of Oços",

Red stood silent for a bit before replying "Good, you have done well Yulius. But before business, we must have pleasure. Please inform our guests to join us in the dinning hall. After we have eaten, you may discuss your findings with us",

"Yes, Your Highness",

The man didn't lift his head, not even once, and proceeded with leaving the room, closing the door behind him. Red turned to trivia who had an annoyed face over her,

"Don't worry, desert is best tasted during moonlight" Red said with a smile,

Trivia's face suddenly became with joy. She stood up and walked over to her wall of clothes. Red looked out of the open varanda and said to himself,

"I'm finally home",
