"Yes," Amara answered, looking up slightly. "It was nice."
Barron nodded and continued, "And Elowen's friends? Did they treat you well?"
"Yes." Amara nodded slightly as a small smile naturally tugged at the corners of her lips. "They always do."
The conversation remained light after that, carried mostly by Barron, with Amara responding politely and Alexander continuing to listen.
Finally, they arrived at the palace.
As they approached the inner grounds, Barron slowed slightly, preparing to stop, but Alexander instructed, "Drive in,"
Barron blinked. "…Inside?"
Alexander did not look at him.
"Yes."
Barron frowned faintly. "You know cars aren't allowed beyond this point."
"Drive in."
The tone left no room for argument, so Barron let out a quiet breath, then nodded. "Alright."
The car moved forward again, passing into the inner palace grounds where vehicles were rarely seen. It did not take long before they reached the Alpha Prince's residence.
