*Rion*
I slid my arms through the sleeves of my dark gray shirt before doing up the buttons on the front. Daphne had chosen the shirt, insisting that it looked amazing on me since it matched well with the color of my eyes.
This was a pivotal moment and we wanted to make a good impression.
Daphne was facing a large full-length mirror on the far side of the room. I watched her expression through the reflection, noting the way her smooth pink lips were turned down, her eyebrows furrowed.
I shook my head with amusement and finished getting dressed before approaching my mate. Understandably, she had left her more extravagant dresses at the palace, packing only a few simpler gowns. The one she wore now was a pale blue color that reminded me of the early evening sky. Her wavy brown hair was slightly flowing delicately down her back.
She looked radiant. All she was missing was her signature sunny smile.
