The entourage reached the gates of the Wynter and Rainier estates. Aaron's carriages and his people moved toward the right-side gate, while Lucian and his group headed to the left-side gate to go to their respective residences first, with plans to meet later.
Lucian was accompanied by his parents, who were familiar with the entire estate and could introduce it to him. They entered the massive gate, rode along the beautifully winding roads cleared of snow, and stopped at the main residence.
The guards and servants of the residence were waiting for their new lord. They all bowed to the handsome young man, the last Rainier, the heir of one of the most prestigious family in the kingdom, whom they were finally meeting. While the new servants were unaware of the previous Lord Rainier, the older ones were glad to see the true owner of the estate return.
