HAZEL
The car rolled to a stop in front of the estate and my breath caught in my throat.
Lily of the Valley's main house sprawled before us like something out of a fever dream. It was perfectly cut stone, stained glass and full of architectural ambition. It made SilverCreek look like a cottage. The sheer size of it pressed down on me. This was where I would live now. This massive monument to wealth and power that belonged to people who mostly probably didn't want me here.
The door opened. A sentinel stood there, his hand extended to help me out. I took it because that was what fucking proper Lunas did. My heels hit the gravel drive and I straightened my spine.
Delta climbed out from the front. Her eyes were huge as she stared up at the building. I didn't blame her.
Movement drew my attention to the entrance. The front doors opened and someone walked out.
Lysander.
