The Raylan family of Stonebridge was one of the city’s four major families–second in power only to the Hawthorne Group. But unlike the others, the Raylans were known for keeping a low profile, rarely making a spectacle of themselves in Stonebridge’s elite social scene.

So when the typically discreet Raylan family suddenly announced a grand banquet–inviting not just the city’s upper crust but also high–profile figures from both political and business circles–the news caused an immediate stir.

“What’s the Raylan family planning with something this extravagant?”

“I heard it’s for Mr. Astro Raylan’s newest and final disciple. This banquet is being held especially for her.”

“Oh? Who trained her? She must be something special if Mr. Astro made an exception to take her on.”

“No idea. Even the Raylan family hasn’t seen this mysterious student.”

The public buzzed with speculation, everyone eager to see who this mystery woman was.

And once rumors spread that Lucas would also be attending, every woman still fantasizing about being “Mrs. Hawthorne” practically lost their minds. They scrambled to prepare their gowns and jewelry, determined to catch Lucas‘ eye at the banquet.
