“Very well… I’ll take it into consideration. In the meantime, remember my warnings” Uther said in a foreboding tone while he eyed Skye darkly.
“Do not embarrass us or our name, act out of line once more and form such unsightly ties with lower-class peasants…” Uther stopped himself deliberately causing a shiver to run down Skye’s spine.
“They can come to the ball now, father said yes after I advised him that it would help with hispublicity. At first he was suspicious, but I somehow managed to convince him. Isn’t that great-A?” Skye half yelped as Anberine suddenly bounced off her chair and landed onto his lap while hugging him.Not caring about the position they were in as jo
“One day, that's all I'm asking” Skye spoke softly to her despite the fact she was glaring at him.“We don’t have much time left” she hissed as he nipped her lips playfully, leaving her almost on the verge of being distracted until the worries of their exams left her more on edge.
