The room Arianna entered was spacious with blackwood flooring and enough lightning to illuminate all corners. It wasn't magnificent yet plush, however, what captured her attention was the long rectangular table.
There were about ten people seated down on it with a hot feast served right in front of them. And no matter how much she stared at them Arianna had no clue who they were and all were immaculately dressed in suits. Not to mention that they were all males, no females. Not even a female company accompanied them. Not one.
Arianna was the only female gender in the room and she had never felt like an outcast, an odd number in her entire life until now. It was her against the men.
All eyes were on her upon her arrival and she felt like running away, as fast as her feet could take her. But her body didn't comply with her mind; Arianna stood frozen like a fish.
