Thalassa paced back and forth in the living room. It had been over an hour since Luisa had gone upstairs after their argument, and Thalassa was really bothered.

"Hey, Thalassa," he greeted. "Is Luisa ready?"

"I'll go get her for you "

Before she could call for Luisa, her friend appeared at the top of the stairs and began descending, her eyes lighting up when she saw Alden.

Alden's gaze never left Luisa. "You look gorgeous," he whispered.

Luisa blushed slightly and smiled. "Thank you."
