Surprisingly, she seemed kind and gentle, completely opposite to what her brother was. I blushed, grinning all ears to ears. “I hope this time, everything works out in our favor.” I forced myself to focus on positivity and the future rather than the wounds and pain of the past. Riya smiled at me reassuringly before we dug in and enjoyed the delicious food. Everyone praised my preparation and arrangements for tonight’s ball.

his feet and motioned Caleb to bring the treaty over there. He handed me the papers, indicating that I should start the conversation.
