“Please believe me when I say I had no part in this scheme of my father’s.” The moment they were dismissed and out of earshot -- which turned out to be in the palace’s study -- Lenora turned to Io and did her best to explain herself. “And though I do find your company enjoyable, Your Highness, I would much rather be traveling the world to continue my independent business and mission. And not as part of a wedding tour!”
She was so frustrated and she knew it was all her father’s fault! Why, why must he always seek to ruin her life? Was he jealous of her success? Greedy to take part in it? She held her head in her arms and let out a loud groan against the fabric, fingers curling in her hair. “And we’re to be wed with Dekker and Cera! That doesn’t give us much time to try and find a way out of it!”
