(Amaia)
The king, queen and Mintaka are present in Alnitak's room when Alnilam and I enter.
Alnitak is lying on his bed, still unconscious.
The queen is sitting beside Alnitak's head, grazing her fingers through his hair. Worries cloud her face. The king is sitting on a chair near Alnitak's bed while Min is pacing the room. Saiph is missing. I don't know where he is.
Their gazes simultaneously lift towards us.
Mintaka appears relieved to see me. King and queen, not so much. I can clearly feel a little tension. Although they refuse to say anything.
The Queen's eyes sparkle with undetectable emotions when she takes me in. My mates have told me that she, just like her husband, doesn't hold a very high opinion of Faes.
She also appears stressed because of Alnitak but the king holds resentment in his eyes when he stares at me. I have to harden my heart and bury every emotion while facing them.
I don't trust either but I am not going to let it show.
