Although she was somewhat disappointed that she could not follow Miss Galina to the Green Lake Region like Angelina and the other brothers and sisters, the thought that staying in Tobesk would make it easier to see Shade soothed Leisha considerably.
Perhaps because she wanted to vent her disappointment, or perhaps deliberately taking advantage of Miss Galina's departure to keep her from seeking out Shade, Her Royal Highness the Princess borrowed Dorothy's body and thoroughly relaxed that Saturday night.
The result was that early Sunday morning, when Shade had prepared breakfast and went with Mia to call Dorothy up for the meal, the Blonde Young Lady pulled the blanket over herself, covering her snow white shoulders glittering in the bright sunlight and more than half her face:
"Please don't wake me before noon. Next time, I will definitely teach Leisha a lesson."
Her voice was languid. Since it was Sunday, Shade did not disturb her.
As a result, Dorothy failed to see the blind nun emerge from the basement half an hour later. In her groggy state, she probably did not hear Shade say that he was going to see Priest Augustus and would return at noon with lunch for her.
Thus, Mia remained at home while Shade and the nun, who had come here early in the morning, boarded a carriage outside the house, preparing to head directly to the Three Cats Inn in the north of the city to meet with Priest Augustus.
It was worth mentioning that, because she would be moving about the crowded streets of Tobesk, Sister Devlin was not dressed in her usual gray-black nun's robe and Silver Eye Patch today. Instead, she wore the same outfit she had worn when she and Shade visited Joey Barton at the Raven Club in Middhir Fort
