Sapphire’s pov The sound of my father's voice echoed through the hallway, his words carrying a sense of urgency and excitement. "Arrange the banners well, please!" he yelled to one of the decorators.I watched from the window as the decorators scurried about, hanging colorful banners and streamers from the balconies and walls. My father had been busy all day, preparing for the arrival of his precious daughter, Larissa.The entire spectacle made me feel awful, a knot of anxiety twisting in the pit of my stomach. But I knew I had to put my best foot forward, to pretend that everything was fine, even when it wasn't.I turned away from the window and resumed my conversation with Mary, trying to distract myself from the impending arrival of Larissa and her husband, Dimitri. But before long, the sound of carriages arriving outside interrupted our conversation.I quickly stepped out into the hallway, my father right behind me. We made our way to the entrance, where the carriage had come to

Sapphires povDimitri leaned against the counter, a smirk playing on his lips as he took another gulp of water. “You know I’m the lycan king, right? I could smell you from a mile away.” His gaze remained fixed on the cup, not even bothering to look in my direction. My heart raced at his words—how did he know? When did he realize? With a resigned sigh, I stepped out from behind the door, feeling the weight of his presence.“If you knew I was there, then why didn’t you say so sooner? You had to make me feel dumb?” I shot back, my voice laced with a playful cunning as I approached him.“Cause I liked how cute you think you can hide from me.” Really?

Sapphire’s pov  The silence between us was thick, and Dimitri's expression was unreadable. It wasn't my place to ask what was on his mind, so I didn't.  "Is that all for the day?" he finally asked.  "No, actually," I replied. "We still have to see the village fortune teller."  "Oh, a fortune teller," he said, a faint smile playing on his lips. "How interesting. Well, lead the way." The air felt lighter as we walked towards the fortune teller's home.   “ so do you believe in fortune telling” I asked to cut the silence  “ no I don’t, but it’s nice others do, I just don’t” Oh okay..

Sapphire’s pov “My sister is gone?” Dimitri's arm wrapped around me, holding me close as I trembled with shock and grief. Father's face was etched with sorrow, his eyes filled with tears. "I'm so sorry, Sapphire," he whispered, his voice cracking. "I should have been able to save her." I shook my head, unable to speak. The weight of my loss was crushing me, making it hard to breathe. Dimitri's grip on me tightened, holding me upright. Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves echoed through the night air. A group of riders emerged from the darkness, their faces illuminated by the flickering flames of our burning estate. One of the riders dismounted, rushing towards us.his face set in a grim expression. "I'm so sorry," he said, his voice low and urgent.
