No matter how little she might care for Finnian someday, their marriage was a fact, and watching Elowen brazenly flirt with Finnian right in front of her would be intolerable to anyone.

"Why wouldn't it be?" Elowen shot back immediately. "You're just being overly sensitive."

"Sensitive?" Amara let out a cold laugh.

If you need a man, go find one yourself. Stop going after someone else's, especially someone so close to you. Even a fox preys farthest from the hole."

Those words were as direct and biting as they came. Elowen's eyes widened in shock, her body trembling. "Wh-what do you mean?"
