"King Krayden, have you met my daughter, Princess Casindra?" Queen Catalina cut into the conversation as she pushed Casindra to the front.
The second princess of Serpentine looked star-struck when she saw King Krayden. Her cheeks blushed beet red as she bowed to him and introduced herself.
"I don't think I've had the pleasure of meeting Princess Casindra. However, I've heard a thing or two."
"You've heard of me?' Casindra gasped in amazement as she glanced back with excitement to look at the Queen.
Athena bit the inside of her cheek. An unfamiliar emotion was forming in her heart. She looked up to see Darrion making a face that resonated with her.
Was this the feeling of jealousy?
"I've heard a thing or two, mostly about how close Lord Darrion is with you, despite the fact that he's betrothed to the Crown Princess."
