"This is Aurora's business. I believe she can handle it." At tonight's banquet, with so many eyes watching, this was Aurora's first real moment in the spotlight-a bold debut.

Tessa stood among the crowd, enjoying the drama. The messier it got, the happier she was. She was counting on Joseph, useless as he was, not to let her down.
