I calm down just in time for lunch. I correct the makeup and check that the hair is in order.
The maids left my chambers when I started throwing things around after they refused to listen to my commands. I've been alone ever since, so nobody saw me crying on the sofa.
The Duke came only once, begging me to give him time to explain. As a response, he received a flying carafe.
Before going out, he said that he will prove to me that he has no ill intentions. It actually sounded more like a threat than a promise, but I didn't even turn to glare at him.
After a morning full of tantrums, I'd like to lie down and sleep forever. Still, a Duchess has duties to fulfil.
He destroyed my country because of a wish. How would he react if I ruined his? But to do that, I need more power than what I have now. I need to form social connections and understand how things work around here.
In the meantime, I can't let the Duke suspect anything, or he'll stop me.
