Summary
“Or maybe it is a fierce queen you're still thinking about?” she asked, already knowing the answer.
“She is already taken,” I said.
“Then look ahead,” she told me. “Not back.”
“I know I have to look forward. I know what I have to do, that is why I do this.”
“You make it sound like you are going to war,” she said.
“In a way I am. I never liked these sort parties. I know how to fight, but this … I am not good at, and marriage, I believe I might be even worse at, but the throne needs someone after me, and maybe … maybe it might just mend something between father and I.”
“So, you sacrifice your own happiness for him?” she asked.
“What do you want me to do, mother?” I asked. “I can’t have the woman I wanted.”
“And Sarya isn’t a woman you could want?” she asked.
“It isn’t like that between us, and besides, that wouldn’t really please father.”
“No, but she does make you happy.”
“Yes,” I said.
“All I want, my son,” she said and walked closer to me, placing her hands on my cheeks. She was only a little smaller than me. She very tall and beautiful woman with white hair like me and pale skin and covered by a long and white dress. She looked like a goddess, which many others had said as well. “Is your happiness.”
Rathilion is now king of the elves. He stood up for what he believed in and turned the elves against his father, making him king. Sadly, that has created a cliff between him and his father and trying to mend things while also securing a future heir for the elves, Rathilion decides to marry in hopes it might bring some good, and make him forget about the lovely Laelia, who already belongs to another.
Valindra never wants to marry. If she could she would want to be locked in a library for the rest of her life. Her undeniable beauty has always brought unwanted attention, and she hates it. All she wants to do is to be left alone, but her father wants her to be the next queen, and despite her having sisters, he believes her beauty will make the king interested, yet an attack on Valindra leaves her scarred, and even though she is dragged to the party just because she has to, her father no longer believes her to be a good candidate.
Funnily enough, it only makes the king look at her more, and every hard word, and cold look she gives him, he finds himself even more intrigued.
