<span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Sebastian felt his lip twitch again in a smile and wondered if that would abate soon or if he was doomed to find this boy exceedingly amusing his entire time here. He trailed after Ayaan, granting himself a brief glance at his pert ass. It was almost impossible not too look with his hips sashaying like that. Sebastian wasn't sure Ayaan was even aware he was doing it, which made it all the more attractive. <br/>
<br/>
Sebastian blinked hard and shook his head to dispel that stream of consciousness. Now was not the time and this was not the boy. He worked for this household and was loyal to it's mistress, of course. It would be fruitless to pursue him, especially since he wouldn't be here all that long. Why tempt himself with forbidden fruit....Sebastian allowed himself another moment to admire and then forced his gaze away. <br/>
<br/>
"How long have you been with Mrs. La Row," he asked softly, taking larger step forward so that he fell into step alongside Ayaan. He gazed down at him intently, hanging on the boy's every word. <br/>

Upstairs, Lydia took her time getting ready. Meticulously picking out a nice satin dress, spending a little longer on minimal makeup, running a brush through her hair again, wrapping it into an intricate bun, complete with braids. She spent several minutes being picky about her jewellery and shoes before deciding she'd kept her guest waiting long enough. <br/>
<br/>
She spritzed herself with perfume a few times before gliding out the door and down to the drawing room. She ground her perfect teeth together when she realized it was still empty. She exhaled slowly, the way she'd be taught to manage her anger, and made her way to the chair by the fireplace. She picked up the book on the small, circular table and flipped idly through it, trying to distracted herself from her increasing annoyance at being left waiting. <br/>
<br/>
When she took so long getting ready, Lydia had intended to waltz casually in on an impatient traveller. Not the other way around. She would have words with Ayaan later. </span></span>
