For some people, like Kelissa Kylton, it was not the happiest of nights. In all frankness, the heiress was having one of THE WORST days in her one hundred and sixty years of life. The photos her men took were only a good thing to look at if she wanted an increase in blood pressure and stress hormones.

She sat alone by the fireplace. The heavy rising and falling of her chest was getting more and more obvious, and her eyes had long turned onyx as she glowered at the photograph in her hand.

Lady Kylton came from the spa room, and placed a hand on her daughter’s shoulder as she whispered, “That won’t be for much longer, Kelly, dear. You should turn in for the night. You know how important sleep is for your flawless complexion.”

Knowing that her advisors were already in their rooms on far sides of the mansion, Kelissa hissed without holding back. “What does Xandar even see in this thing, mom? Look at her!”

She handed her mother one of the photos, showing Xandar holding Lucianne on his lap in the court cafeteria. The resolution of the picture was so high that no one could deny the King’s affectionate gaze on the very flustered Queen-to-be as she leaned into his chest. The sight was a disgusting and nauseating one for Lady Kylton.

Her Ladyship sighed in despair as she noted, “It’s a good thing the late King and Queen have passed. This affair itself would bring them to a premature grave.”

Her daughter continued to rant, “I’d rather they remained alive when Xandar met her! At least then, they would’ve forbidden their son from pursuing this…NONSENSE! THEY WOULD HAVE MADE HIM REJECT HER!!”
