I am sure it has been on everyone's mind for quite some time now, especially since you became the Primus. When are you going to pick a mate? Your father picked one pretty early and had you, not too many decades after. You are taking too long to decide, your grace."
Jael squinted his eyes at her words. He recalled Lady Francine, she was close to Lady Marceline, his mother's cousin. She wasn't here as she didn't fall under the category of Lord in attendance and he was pretty glad about that. He wasn't ready to see her, not any time soon.
"I understand your impatience, Lady Francine but I am sure dealing with the palers is much more important, wouldn't you agree?"
"Yes," she replied, looking more determined. "However, it doesn't make it less of a priority and at this point, it is dragging on unnecessarily. There are a lot of capable ladies, I am sure your indecisiveness isn't as a result of not finding the right mate."
