I waited for Dia in my garden. It's been over an hour already, and I was beginning to think the Princess might have played me.
Great. After all the work I have put into this. I even bribed Lucan with food for just a few hours alone, and I sent Osha away, too.
I knew I shouldn't be alone with a Lycan that might be hostile toward me, but I figured if this were to work, we needed to be alone. After all, I'm trying to convince Dia in place of the princess.
That little brat. Only the gods knew how I would be able to do such a thing.
I chewed my nails nervously. No, no. I shouldn't give up just yet.
Suddenly, I heard approaching footsteps. I peeked to find Dia walking down the aisle. She had her inky dark hair packed in two buns, and her clothing was different. It looked identical to Lina, the princess's other handmaid.
Dia ambled up the stairs, and I noticed some freckles at the bridge of her nose spreading over to her cheeks.
