Astria Pov
The hall was filled with so many people of rich status the moment I walked inside. The music was soft and playing at the background, while everyone seemed to engage with one another.
My heart was beating fast. Tonight is the night that Alaric and I finally reveal our relationship to the world.
Three years of privacy.
Three years we kept everything away from the public and now in that moment, it could take a big turn.
I begin to scan the room, searching for him. The one man that makes my world a happy place but as the time went by, my anxiety begins to increase.
Where is Alaric?
His friends had also arrived at the banquet hall and acknowledged my presence with a smile on their lips.
Alaric's friend were the only people that offered support and encouragement but I knew they only did it because Alaric was involved.
Without him, I was a nobody and would have been exposed to harsh public criticism.
