Levando said, “Given the circumstances, letting it upstairs just once should be fine.”

Leonardo said, “I’ll wait for you downstairs”
“Abricht.”
Amaid led Samantha upstairs to a bedroom
Something about the room’s decor and furnishings felt oddly familiar. Then, it hit her–this was the same room from the photos Layla had sent her before.

The maid pushed open the bathroom door. A large, round bathtub was already filled with steaming hot water. mist curling into the air and making the entire room warm and inviting.
She carefully explained the different functions of the bathroom’s features before finally saying, “If you need anything, just call me. I’ll be right outside.

Meanwhile, Stone had found a spot in the comer–one that gave it a clear view of the bathtub.

In the end, Samantha won

As soon as the door shut, the sound of scratching against it began
Samantha sank into the warm water, sighing in reliet, but the scratching outside continued. She had no choice but to call out, “Stone, I’m right here.” Hraning bar wäre, the dog stopped scratching briefly before starting again.
And so the eyele routed, leaving her time to let her mind wander.
By the time the finished bathing and changed into fresh clothes, she felt lighter and retreated. Walking downstairs with Stoor, who was as cheerful as ever, she
