The sum of business due to Rúbia's marriage to Bruce doubled the lord's responsibilities. Rúbia, unlike the “queen of dreams”, finds herself in a no-win situation.

“But also… How much can we be expected to actually do? I mean, we saved Abigail and Helena… Wasn’t that enough? If we had tried to do more, would we have been able to do other things that we’ve done?” “Aislen,” Rhett said into her hair and then stopped, lost for words. “No,” Jules said firmly. “She’s right.

They think that it’s like in the movies, the good guy saves everyone, and no one dies. But, Cam, that’s just not real. It’s not real life. People in situations like this… They die. They do.”

I huff out a breath and straighten my spine. “Well, it seems to me that you are going out of your way to make me uncomfortable, so honestly, isn't this the reaction you expected from me? I'm just playing into whatever it is that you are doing here.” I am surprised by my audacity in speaking to him. Especially with attitude. I don't usually talk to the other students at school, especially not guys, preferring to keep my head down and just try to get through each day. I must be imagining the glint in his ey

My eyes grew as I listened to him, exactly how I feel "This isn't the way it should be, it looks promising, is this the life I dreamed about?
