Mirelah;
I watch as their carriages disappear into the distance, and then it settles on me. The fact that… I have a new home now. It's official. There's no going back, no changing anything… I have a new family, a new life, a new identity.
I have to make a place for myself here because this will be my home till I close my eyes in eternal sleep.
It wouldn't be easy. I know it… But I have to try. For the sake of my destiny.
My destiny is tied to Kealith, and Kealith is tied to his family. I need to form strong bonds with them… At least the ones who want to form a bond with me. Only a foolish wife willingly makes enemies of her husband's family.
I gently pick up my dress and walk over to my in-laws. Queen Velnara smiles at me and pulls me into a warm, long embrace, while King Damarion just scowls at me. This man hates me. I understand why. But it's illogical.
