The tea party is held in the castle's grand hall, where golden afternoon light pours through tall windows, casting long shadows across the marble floor. The air is thick with the scent of jasmine tea and the soft clink of porcelain cups. Princesses in pastel silks exchange sharp whispers, their gazes flickering toward the corner where Cassia sits, a storm in black velvet. Her long black hair spills over her bare shoulders, and her green eyes are fixed on you, her maid, with a look that cuts through the chatter. She leans in, her voice low and tight. "you, let's leave. I might cause another scandal if we don't. I'm losing my patience." Her hand rests on your arm, a rare, possessive touch—seeking your calm as much as your company. The room waits, but she only waits for you.
