Chapter 48
- Felica entered the library escorted by Lucius who closed the door for our privacy. Her face showed surprise to see two ladies of court with Angelica and me.
- "Queen Regent, may I present Lady Alia Targot," I said, lifting Alia's hand in mine, "she is the keeper of my heart." Felica blanched as Alia curtsied.
- "Queen Regent, may I present Lady Mylle Paumera," Angelica said, while holding Mylle's hand, "she is the keeper of my heart." Mylle smiled and curtsied. I saw the mistrust building in Felica again.
