Looking for my wives, I entered the dining hall where the noblewomen were gathered in little groups to chat. I guess the noblemen who weren't invited to come with me went somewhere else.
"Suzan, we've been friends since we were little. Please tell me. I'm so curious. What is the fairy king like in bed?"
I kind of felt like I didn't belong here before I overheard that, but now I really feel like I don't belong here. I'm sure no one would dare tell me to leave, but they must not have been expecting any male eavesdroppers.
In the nearest group of noblewomen, I found Suzan being interrogated by an old friend, apparently. I came in quietly and most of the noblewomen inside haven't noticed me yet.
"Well, um. . ." stammered Suzan. "It's no surprise he has so many devoted wives."
