Carissa hopped down from the railing outside the pavilion, plucked a rose, and bit it between her teeth. She flipped over three more times, then nimbly swung herself back up, landing lightly beside Violet. She stretched out her arms and faced her friend, offering the rose in Violet snatched the flower from her, glaring at her in mock anger. "Seriously? You're the Hell Monarch's princess consort and you're flipping around like that? Isn't that embarrassing? Do you have no shame?"

"What could I do? I offended you, Ms. Spencer." Carissa's cheeks turned pink as she laughed brightly. "Have you forgiven me yet?"

Violet sighed. "I wasn't really angry with you to begin with. Come on, let's head to the workshop and find Jessica."

She pinched Carissa's arm and shot Travis a glare. "Still laughing? You're going to dislocate your jaw."

Travis couldn't stop laughing, tears welling up in his eyes. "You guys are killing me. You looked like a monkey."

Carissa and Violet ignored him and stepped out of the pavilion.

As they walked, Violet kicked Carissa in the rear and muttered, "You idiot."

Carissa glanced back, sticking her tongue out. "Who told you to fall for it?"

Violet chuckled, but as she laughed, she remembered Travis' words. A pang of sadness shot through her chest and her eyes welled with tears.
