At Cordon Castle
"I can't believe that I just bargained myself away for this…" Clara muttered as she made her way back inside the castle. It had been a while since she stepped foot inside of it, and somehow, it already felt like an eternity for her. Cordon Castle had been like home to her for all these years, and to be away from it felt more surreal than staying in her actual mansion.
Last night, she had a serious talk with Gilas regarding the matter at hand despite the tensions that still brewed between them. She had made sure that she make her offer sound like a good bargain… ending up more like a marriage alliance in simpler terms.
[You're being too harsh on him!] Sheba scolded.
And throughout it all, her inner wolf never stopped nagging her about how rude she was being to their mate. Unfortunately, she couldn't help it. She wanted Gilas to not expect too much in this bargain. Sure, she promised herself to him, but that didn't mean that she would give him her all…
