Chapter 40 Regrets!

• Seraphina made her way to the room designated for her. As soon as she entered, she threw herself onto the bed, her anger consuming her as she reflected on her own actions. She couldn’t deny that, in a moment of arrogance and self-defense, she had scorned the prince and the opportunities before her.
• Perhaps it was the fear of being forced into an unwanted marriage or the belief that she was superior to such a union that led her to act with disdain. Now, her perspective had changed.
• With a hint of remorse, Seraphina acknowledged that her past attitude had fed her ego. She realized that, in some way, she felt threatened by her sister’s rise to princess status. The idea of being overshadowed by Serenity, of losing the place she had always coveted, was an open wound that fueled the bitterness in her heart.
