Odessa's POV
*****
After Kaelos killed Delta Axel, the meeting was dismissed. I wanted to linger around but the serious mood Kaelos was in made me decide to wait it out.
I walked out of the office, heading downstairs. As I walked down the stairs, I noticed the stares from a few maids who walked past me.
Some whispered and others shifted away with fear.
When I finally got downstairs, I sighed, walking past the dining room when a voice called me from the stairs.
"Ma'am Odessa!"
I paused, a small smile curling my lips as I turned around to face the source of the familiar voice.
Caroline had a cheery expression on her face, her curly ginger hair, which was made into a ponytail, bouncing behind her as she ran to me.
Ever since the Charity Ball, she's seemed more confident in herself and has begun dressing less as a maid. Right now she wasn't in her maid uniform but a simple pink night gown.
"Hey, Caroline," I said in a low voice when she got in front of me.
