1. Do I Need To Go?
“Mother, what is the meaning of this?” Elizabeth peered at the delicate deep lilac evening gown her mother just presented to her. “It’s for you, dear. Tonight you’ll attend a ball at Dereon Hall,” her mother said with a devious glint in her eye that she did not like. When Agnes White put her mind to something, there would be no persuading her otherwise.
“Why wasn’t I informed about this before? This is rather sudden!” Elizabeth exclaimed, jumping up from her bed. Agnes looked at her with disdain. “You will not speak to me in that tone,you ungrateful child,” her mother sneered. “this ball will have August Dereon, the country’s most eligible bachelor, present and rumour is he’ll be choosing a bride! Who could be more ideal than my lovely daughter?”
Elizabeth looked at her mother in surprise. “An arranged marriage? Is that not a little medieval, mother?” She said incredulously as she shook her head, not believing what she was learning. Of all the underhanded things her mother has put her through in the past, this was by far the lowest. Attempting to marry her off for personal gain!
“Not at all. This will benefit our family well,” Agnes replied. “The Whites and Dereons are two of the country’s most esteemed families, so it’s only natural that you end up with the only Dereon Heir. It’s all up to you tonight, Elizabeth You need to land August Dereon and make me proud.” Elizabeth stared at her mother, not knowing what to think or answer to that.“Bu-“
“Come now, get dressed. The make-up artist and hairstylist will be here in 10 minutes.” Agnes interjected her protest before leaving the room.
Elizabeth stared at the space her mother had just occupied and sighed in defeat. “Mother, this is your lowest blow.” she murmured to nobody in particular and sauntered towards the evening gown laid on her bed. “Land August Dereon? No one even knows what he looks like!” She said, exasperated, while picking up the evening gown in her hands. What’s the worst that could happen tonight, anyway?She walked towards her bathroom so she could freshen up before her entourage was expected to arrive. After 23 years of living under her mother’s thumb, Elizabeth knew the time would come where she would be able to stand up to her mother. After everything she has been through, you would think Agnes White would be a bit more sympathetic towards her only daughter. As it turns out, her mother only despised her more each day, at least that was how it appeared to her. So she would go through with Agnes's plans, because her guilt over the past forever shackled her to her mother.
But could she ever forgive herself?

August Rain: A Mafia Trinity Novel ** Cliff Note **
Elizabeth rummages through her storage. Damon had run off in this direction with her bag and she could not find her wallet anywhere. Today was the opening of Libellule School of Design and she would be late at this rate. Sighing in exasperation, she vows never to have any more kids. As she bends down to look behind one of Damon's old strollers, she spots a box hidden in the far end of the shelf. She frowns and reaches in further until she could touch the box and pulls it out. It was about the size of a normal shoe box and looked oddly familiar. She took the top off and sighed, it was a photo album. Her mother used to old fashioned back in the day before greed took over. As she paged through the album, she becomes misty eyed at the happy memories she had when Blair was still alive.But as she neared the end, she recognized an envelope that she put there a long time ago; a letter left to her by her parents in their will.
