VioletI thought our marriage was perfect until I heard him say her name.“Nora!”Lucas darted away from me and across the room to a woman in a velvet blue dress. He swept her up into his arms. His face lit up with a joy that I’d never seen on his face before. He looked at her as if she were a gift
Violet“Another, please.”I slid the empty glass forward, waiting for the bartender to refill it and sighed. I didn’t want to look at it, but my eyes kept drifting to the mark burning on my wrist. Unwanted. I was the Darkmoon heir, and not even my fated mate wanted me. My eyes pricked. Was I really

Olivia’s smile returned, though it didn’t reach her eyes. “Yes, Shelter in particular seems to have sparked quite the debate. It’s rare to see something so… divisive. But that’s the beauty of the system, isn’t it? The law must be carefully considered before such changes are made.” She was careful
