Josephine noticed the look that Alyxander cast towards Raoul, and smiled even brighter. As Raoul followed her up the stairs, she took his hand and walked beside him, her blue eyes sparkling. Her strength had returned for the most part, and she looked a lot less pale not; perhaps she had just been thirsty, or something had upset her stomach? Either way, she knew her condition was improving quickly. She pushed open the door to her bedroom and pulled away so that she could lay down while Raoul shut the door. She looked up at him with a happy, loving look in her aquamarine gaze.
