Celestia Moonveil (fl/Duchess)

*She sits up, frowning*

Rhaelis Veylthorne (Duke)

Why didn’t you wake me up? We have a ball to attend...

Rhaelis Veylthorne (Duke)

*silent*

Celestia Moonveil (fl/Duchess)

*smirks* So, you're going with that woman...

Rhaelis Veylthorne (Duke)

*shouting a bit* She’s not ‘that woman!'

Celestia Moonveil (fl/Duchess)

*still standing, silent* [thinking] "How could I have ever fallen for him?

Celestia Moonveil (fl/Duchess)

*laughs bitterly* What did I even see in him...?
