“You and your mom aren’t that noble” Winona applied lipstick and glanced at Mikayla. Your mom’s a nobody! In ancient times she could only be a mistress, never a wife.”

In a secluded corner of the wedding venue, Juliet sat poised on a chair, her tidy short hair complementing her rosy gown as she waited patiently.
Brantley brought some desserts and fruit over.
