"Why did you come all this way, Myra?" Amael asked after a moment, his expression returning to something lighter. "I thought you would have already met up with the Saintess."
"Oh, I have already met her," Miranda answered with a small smile. "I only came with my uncle. He will be accompanying the Saintess during the reveal, so we ended up coming together. Besides, I wanted to see Veyra for myself."
"I thought it was more because you wanted to see Amael," Christina said teasingly.
Miranda's eyes widened.
"I did not," she replied far too quickly, her cheeks faintly flushing again. Then she glanced at Amael beside her, her expression softening. "It was simply a coincidence. Though… I will not say I am unhappy that I got to see him. And you too, Christina."
"I see," Christina said, nodding as though she completely believed that explanation.
Her smile only grew more amused. Miranda's embarrassment was far too adorable for her to leave alone.
