The journey to Orttenburg was as uneventful as Theo wanted, but it was anything but peaceful. I spent most of my time in my room. Every now and then, I had to face Seth outside, and I could feel an intense longing for him. I knew it was because of the mate bond, and I needed to get used to it since this sense of lust would bombard me once we were in his kingdom. The instant we arrived at Orttenburg, they sent us an invitation to a masquerade ball. So, after organizing our things—Inanna, Ninus, Gezer, Ruth, and I—start preparing for the ball. During the night, we arrive at the grand ballroom. We are all wearing the finest garments, courtesy of Seth. I am dressed in a deep blue, floor-length gown embroidered with silver flowers. I am even given a delicate silver mask to wear for the ball. Ninus, Gezer, Inanna, and Ruth are wearing masks like me. They are all beautiful in the vibrant colors of their gowns, all chosen by Seth.
