Chapter 76

Aurora:

I stood in the living room, watching as the maids and concierges prepared the delights that I asked them to set on the tray for our guests this evening. Considering the fact that our gathering was going to be here and outside, I knew to prepare things accordingly. Plus, I didn’t know where most of the guests would prefer to stay; therefore, I knew to be prepared for both situations.

Natalia entered the living room, noticing the calm aroma in the house. And though I had to admit, I was somewhat nervous about how the night was going to go, and I was somewhat worried that things might backfire, I knew to be optimistic.

“Someone is in a good mood.” Natalia stated, making me laugh. She stood by my side, watching as the maids worked and watching as I arranged a few samples for the maids to use as references to what I wanted the dishes to look like.

“You are right, but the last thing that I would want to do is jinx it. And therefore, I am going to seal my l*ps. Plus, I doubt that the two of us should be talking about my good mood when I have a bride to be standing by my side.” I said, nudging her with my shoulder. Her eyes brightened, and I knew that she was more than happy to be called the name.

Having told me the other night that she couldn’t believe that she was going to be Ivan’s wife, I knew to be happy for her about it. The woman had gone through a hard time with her father, and I knew, somehow, that had it not been for Dimitri being an ally, both a strong and close one to her father; the man wouldn’t have allowed them to be eloping if it cost his life.

Thankfully, both men were lucky to know how to negotiate with the man, and wanting his daughter’s happiness, regardless of how much he might have had a small side of him being against it; he chose to accept the marriage. But that didn’t mean that he didn’t sometimes give the two of them a hard time, and that was something that happened here as well, unfortunately, it even happened in front of

And considering the fact that it is winter, I don’t have to worry about any of the cold dishes warming up.” I said, and she nodded. It was a week into the new year, and with everything that we have been going through, I didn’t have enough time to prepare for it. But

    anyway.

    for their hours, I knew not to exhaust them more than we already were. It was going to be inhuman, and the last thing that I wanted was for them to grow too tired in the end.

I didn’t know whether or not she would end up being another person who hated me like Charlotte. But I saw more love in her eyes and I saw more respect that I would have seen in anyone’s in my life. And the feeling was also mutual. I treated her with the same respect, and I
