The servants' rooms were nicer than Ella expected them to be, and the one empty room in the ladies-in-waiting's chamber (which had bell-rings for Alexandra and a small door that led to a stair and up to the Empress' room) was sparse, but clean. It was also small, and they were expected to share the large bed in the center, and Ella hesitated in the doorway a moment before going inside. "You two settle in. I'm going to wander around and see if I can catch a glimpse of anyone else from Bellum," she said.
She gave them both a small smile, and she left the rooms in search of Helena. And my Beast.
