"Mother, this is Jayra, my mate," Bartos immediately introduced to his mother, the glow on his face evident from everybody to see.
"Wow, Brother rarely smiles, but look at how wide those lips are stretched right now," Bella couldn't help but tease Bartos.
Meanwhile, Jayra flashed her sweetest smile at Bartos's mother and politely said, "Greetings, milady. I'm Jayra, a royal mage from the Kingdom of Ebodia." She then followed up by giving the older woman a courteous bow.
Inwardly, Jayra had never felt this nervous in her whole life. She could only hope that Bartos's family would like her somehow despite her poor background. She was far from nobility back at Ebodia, being but an orphan that the chapel inside Ebodia Castle took in and took good care of.
