Claire looked at me as though | had grown a second head and lightly chuckled. "Of course, | have to design a whole new dress!" she exclaimed.

" This wedding is going to be the absolute talk of the region." Just the thought of that, made my heart sink into my stomach. | forced a smile and gently spoke. "Just please don't go overboard," | told her earnestly. "If you really need to create a new dress, please pass the whole idea to Alexander first, okay? I'm more than happy to wear the original one you had designed." Claire nodded her head and made off with a noticeable bounce in her step while | was left feeling deflated.

Recently, | just felt as though someone was always trying to get my attention no matter how small or insignificant the matter was. | quickly glanced around and swiftly made my way toward the library, only to be stopped by Nina.
